You'll need two dongles - one will output DMX and the other D-Light. ------------- http://www.deweycooter.com/wiki/index.php/Aurora - Aurora Lights Wiki http://www.aurorashow.com/">

I'm going on memory, but your DMX channels need to be on network 32. Set these channels up in the sequencer.
In the show player, you need to specify which dongle is your d-light network (probably network 1), and which is the DMX (network 32). There's a setup/config menu in the show player. Have both dongles connected when you start up the player, each dongle will have an ID (there may or may not be a sticker on the dongle itself). You'll have to play with it to determine which is which. ------------- http://www.deweycooter.com/wiki/index.php/Aurora - Aurora Lights Wiki http://www.aurorashow.com/">
