Just in case someone has a Plug-in or driver :)

I have the ECG-DR4. Nice little device to give me four DMX universes out.

Got my EGC-DR4 and have been doing some testing with it..  I like it!
10 ACx16's (now DMX), 1 DCx16 (now DMX), 4 Lynx Express, 8 - 3 channel DMX boards from China driving RGB  MR-15 boards from bigclive, 2 universes.
 --- WAH-WHO!--- This is exactly the direction I wanted to go.
 
Have done some testing with X-Lights and LSP. and the results have been all positive (other than my extreme difficulty in using LSP).. Now I'm excited about Aurora going the E1.31 direction since I'm not giving up on it.
 
3 Channel controlers from China require a keep-alive to prevent them from entering their default color cycle mode and the EGC-DR4 seems to be handling this just fine with them and Lynx controllers on one universe and the D-Light controllers on the other universe. Sure is nice not being concerned about all the usb dongles hanging off the pc.
 
Let me see - 4 universes on the EGC-DR4, 2 on 2 Lynx dongles, 2 on 2 D-Light dongles
4096 channels to sequence LOL

We'll be testing E1.31 sometime next year.  I'm not certain exactly when it will begin yet.  My wife and I have a baby due in February, which is going to distract us for a little bit.  After that, E1.31 and the real DMX testing will begin.

I too will be more than happy to rid Aurora of all of the USB dongle support stuff so that we can focus on other important things.

Finally unburied the DR4 I bought last year and started playing with it. Getting any kind of documentation from J1sys was futile, so relied on what was on the D-Light site and my engineer's WAGs on how to flash it. Thanks to JonB for the wiring mod!!Clap Was pulling my hair out!

When the time comes, I think it would be best to have a forum here just for the DR4 - as that is the "standard" Aurora 2.0 will be using. I just know there will be just as many questions for it as well as 2.0
