Output options for Nomad

Unfortunately, that one won't work for you. It is a passive connector type adapter, not an active network to DMX Adapter. As such, it is only good for converting from 5pxlr to RJ45 connectors, and not for sACN to DMX, which is what you'd need to get DMX output from your Nomad Dongle. Within ETC's product family, what you'd need is the ETC Gadget(USB to DMX adapter cable,) or a one port DMX/RDM Gateway (uses the network to get DMX out.) Unfortunately, I don't believe either of those will be under $100.00. Check with your local ETC dealer for the pricing on those.

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news. A quick Google Search for sACN to DMX devices should turn up some items closer to your price range, but I cannot say anything about their compatibility with the ETC Nomad software. I will offer my opinion on buying items sight unseen on the internet. Be careful what you purchase, and make sure the company you purchase from stands behind their product. Sometimes the cheapest item out there isn't the way to go. That's what makes ETC such a great purveyor of control products, their dealer network.

One final note- I work for an ETC dealer, and looking at your profile, there is another one located in your town that may be able to help you out.

Thanks for the quick response.

I too have been searching and found the ETC gadget to be the most reliable solution and I always purchase from ETC when I can. I was just hoping someone would have a cheaper solution they could purchase before taking the leap to buy the gadget.

Thanks again!
