Thank you.
Will this work?

They do exsit but generally aren't cheap. NSI (now NSI/Leviton/ColorTran)was the company that invented the protocol back before DMX became the standard for the industry. They make a box but it is not cheap. Doug Fleenor also has one but it is even more expensive.

If you can post a link to the one someone is trying to sell you I might be able to tell you if it will work or not. I personally only have experience with the NSI box and can tell you it works perfectly fine.
