Hi There,
I'm trying to send a DMX value to my Showtec Net 2/3 device so I can control my lights by a dimmer.
Im using the flow below, but what happens if I send value 255 to channel 1, all the DMX channels get a (random?) value which difference in the times I click on sent. Hope someone can give me a clue what happens here?
```auto

````auto
