Ask a generic question about the usage of QLC+, not related to a particular operating system

I Like to use the inputline from the enttec.
So, I connect the DMX output from a lightingdesk to the Enttec dongle.
If I look in the EMU program from Enttec, I see all the values from the lightingdesk arrive.
But, in QLC+4-12-7 Nothing happens on the inputline.
I have tried on a separate universe as input with dimmers in that universe.
Also tried to get "input from a external controller", but autodetect gives no response.
Checking "pass through" with input / output on the same universe gives no response.

What am I missing, or do wrong? Or is DMX input from the dongel not supported in QLC?

Paul ... via the Enttec program you have to select Input as behaviour. (Use the pro manager; not the EMU and push the config to the EEprom).
Now open QLC+, select a new universe and select the input box.
Now all channels can be used inside QLC+.
When you open the EMU, it reconfigures the interface as input. You have to make this setting permanent.

Thanks! That did the trick!
I Think that you mean that the EMU reconfigures to output...

I think it's worth to add this information to the DMX USB plugin documentation
@yestalgia PR? :)

On it boss!

Update 1: It looks like the Enttec Pro-Manager software package is discontinued - I've emailed them asking for a download link or source code.
