Initial data send to USB DMX controller is broken #32

Closed TimPietrusky closed 6 years ago

TimPietrusky commented 6 years ago

Problem

When attaching the USB DMX controller to the computer and opening VisionLord, all attached DMX fixtures go cray cray and show random stuff

Temporary fix

Send the universe from VisionLord to the USB DMX controller by starting the timeline

Additional info

This might happen because when the USB DMX controller is attached to the computer and it is starting the loop (because it's an Arduino) it send an empty array into the DMX512 network which causes this shit (JUST AN IDEA)

The problem was in fact that after the loop() of the Arduino is starting, the incoming array has no values, but the Arduino just grabs values from the memory (I think) and sends that into the DMX512 universe which leads to errors.
