I really love all of the features of this product but I have 2 complaints that prevent me from giving it a 5 star review. 1. I would prefer if the DMX output was handled with an Ethernet jack. It isn't hard to wire an Ethernet cord, but if you need to move a controller around you either have to wire the output to an Ethernet jack or sacrifice another Ethernet cord. 2. You must have a network connection to boot to test mode. I can see the reasoning behind this, but it is a bit frustrating to wait for the controller to boot only to have to unlock it and reboot into test mode. Other than these 2 complaints, I am completely satisfied with all of the features and the price of this controller. ---- HOLIDAYCORO RESPONSE ---- We did consider going with a CAT5 jack for the E1.11 RS485 DMX output but enough customers were also using standard E1.11 compliant XLR cable that doesn't work with CAT5 Jacks. We then considered adding both to the board but there was not sufficient space to do so. The test mode does work, abeit it appears it doesn't, without an Ethernet connection. After booting the controller, wait for the "NOT NETWORK" warning and then press and hold the "M" button to go into the test mode.
