#179 DMX netduino

Posted by John on 09 August 2010 - 09:22 PM in Netduino 2 (and Netduino 1)

Thanks everyone! I didn't realize that they actually have a document stating all the protocol for DMX 512. I went ahead and bought an electronic copy. Hopefully, I can understand it.



#158 DMX netduino

It's not going to be a stage lighting like you normally think of. It's actually going to be a fountain (http://mad-laborator...-stepper-motor/). I've been working on this project for too long, and am finally getting to the control part of it. I really want to be able to sync up the music and the fountain to "make it dance" so to speak. Ultimately I'm planning on getting a whole bunch of these installed in my yard. But let's not get ahead of ourselves here. I understand that DMX basically sends out an address and a value. If the slave device has been called then it looks at the value and act accordingly. Can a dmx device control two different devices? i.e. Can the netduino control the stepper and LED at the same time?



#140 DMX netduino

Posted by John on 08 August 2010 - 10:24 PM in Netduino 2 (and Netduino 1)

I've played around with microcontollers here and there, but now I have a project that I must work out. I'm trying to figure out the best way to tackle this new project. What my goal is to control a high powered LED and stepper motor using DMX-512. I'm not sure how to approach this but I could use some help getting pointed in the right direction. Is the netduino a good choice or is there something that would be better.
