iank99, Thanks for the tips, I'll make sure both packs are set to positive supply. The desk is my own design, and needs +20v to +24v, it was originally for use with Furze (fx spit) dimmers. This is all for a very small production, with an even smaller budget

Mike, Thanks, I'll start wiring up some leads. I never thought I would be using my old desk again; the place I am hiring from wanted £35 for a week's hire of a simple 24 channel two preset DMX desk, which I think is a bit steep. Richard.

I am about to hire two of these, and would like to make use of my old 0-10v desk. What is the mating connector for the 8 - pin DIN on the front panel, as mentioned in the manual. Would it by chance be this ? TIA, Richard
