Thank you! But I am already in contact with a local guy from Edwin Jones. He is the one who helped me fix a dimmer (ghosting problem) and he told me it was 0-12V. He is also going to help me put in the converter.

This is the back up plan. If our budget is not approved for the small upgrade, then we will go that route.I think I found what I am looking for, but it has a 5 pin XLR. Do most DMX boards have this? or will I just need to get a converter to a 3 pin XLR?

You read my mind. I called Edwin Jones and they confirmed that it is a 0-12. I will have to keep looking. So far I can't find one. I might have to settle on 0-10 and hope it bright enough.

It is an old Edwin Jones system and I was going to have the local guy come out and wire it for me. Though it doesn't look to complicated.I found a DMX to Analog converter online but it said 0-10 VDC (I think I have 0-12 volts output) Would this be ok?

Would it be cheaper to buy a converter or buy a whole new DMX dimmer system? I have a few thousand in my budget.

I am very new to the lighting world. I am just now starting to learn the lingo that goes along with it and what certain things need....so I hope to keep up.I have a very old Analog system in my cafeteria. They light board in on the stage behind a curtain, but I am wanting to put an external...
