Low DMX Reading
Currently running 1.6 and noticed a few things on the last gig. The DMX values seemed to be reading ~0.5 percent lower then what was being output by the console and what my Swisson was picking up, this was from multiple DMX sources. I was also continuing to have issues with RDM discovery, I'd see the devices pop-up for a second but then would get "Devices Offline".

Re: Low DMX Reading
Hi Logan,
Updated to v1.17. I don't have any RDM fixtures at the moment to check that, but was able to check the low DMX reading. From what I can tell the low reading is the result of the rounding method used by the IQ tester to convert decimal to percentage readout. Multiple DMX sources all tracked identically from the output the IQ tester in decimal view, but read 1% low when viewed in percent mode.

Re: Low DMX Reading
As you suspected, this is the result of our conversion algorithm.
Optional value display style to match other console readouts is now on our list of features to add in future releases.
Thank you for the question and the suggestion.
