Is there a Linux driver? If not, are hardware specs available?

It's a standard USB serial device, so the drivers are built-in. There is endless documentation on the protocol used for DMX.

Load software, plug it in. A ridiculous question ....what are you setting it up on? What software are you intending to use?

What specification or app is required beyond the provided drivers? unable to find any dmx controller apps capable of detecting the cable/dmx adapter?

Greetings--After installing the drivers, I downloaded and installed the free FreeStyler V. 3.6.50 software, on a Windows 10 Home computer (V. 1903). The software does not have direct support for the DSD Tech USB to DMX (RS-485) adapter, but I have experienced success using the Eurolite USB-DMX controller. I hope this helps!

Where can I download the driver for windows?

The last device in the RS-485 (DMX XLR) chain must be terminated with a 120 ohm 1/2W resistor, between pins 2 and 3. Problems when terminating the chain when using Lixada wireless DMX adapter (simply don’t terminate). Can daisy-chain devices, using the Lixada wireless DMX adapter The USB to DMX XLR adapters work with the free FreeStyler DMX software. Initially using the FreeStyler V. 3.4.6, shipped with the Lixada USB adapter, then upgraded to FreeStyler V. 3.6.50. I initially tried the DSD Tech USB to RS-485 interface with FreeStyler DMX, as a “UDMX adapter,” in FreeStyler, but was unable to get it to function. The Eurolite USB-DMX adapter seems to communicate with the fixtures. Other generic options include the and DXPACK interface, and, possible, Enttec Open-DMX. The DMX addresses cannot overlap, without adversely affecting devices. If one device is on channel 10 and has 14 addresses, the next available address would be 23 (10 + the next 13 addresses).
