Can't get any DMX device running

Hi,

I'm trying to start with QLC and 4 Stairville LED bars (2xCLB4 and 2x xBrick Quad 16x8W RGBW). For the first test my setup is as following:

Windows 7 PC --> USB Cable --> Enttec Open DMX USB --> 5 to 3 pin converter --> DMX cable --> xBrick Quad 16x8 --> DMX Terminator (110 Ohm)

In QLC I have added a new spotlight:
Modus: 4 Channel (Red, Green, Blue, White)
Universe: 1
Address: 1

At the output panel I have ticked the output channel at the USB DMX Interface (Status: device is running) and added this to Universe 1.

However if I pull up some faders nothing happens. That is exactly the same as described in this tutorial:

So what am I doing wrong? I have already changed all cables, the spotlight and even the USB interface. But I can't get this setup running.

Did you set your fixture to 4 channel mode?
