Step 1 - PLug Hardware and set Comm Port:
a) The Eurolite USB DMX Pro MK2 interface must be plugged into the computer.
b) The driver for the Eurolite USB DMX Pro MK2 interface must be installed (Windows or Mac: see www.steinigke.de)

- updates the list
The comm ports under Windows are COMx, where x is a number. A Comm Port is created for each USB device that communicates with the computer via a serial interface. If several USB devices are available on the computer, several comm ports are listed.
Either try the list or look in the Windows device manager for the correct port.
Under Mac OSX:
Eurolite uses the FTDI drivers (FTDIUSBSerialDriverxxxx.dmg), but MAC OSX only supports certain baud rates. The baudrate of 250000 baud needed for the Eurolite USB DMX Pro MK2 is unfortunately not supported.
Therefore the Eurolite USB DMX Pro MK2 cannot be used under MAC.
Eurolite has only one baud rate 250000.
