For it to work you need to connect the ESP to a circuit like this:
I used a max485 chip.
The Input of the max485 Chip has to be connected to pin D4 of your ESP8266.
You need to change #define NUM_LEDS according to your quantity of DMX Devices.
It only works with DMX lamps that have 4 channels:
(Channel 1:Red/ Channel 2:Green/ Channel 3:Blue/ Channel 4:Dimmer)
I´m relatively new to Arduino so I don´t expect everything to work flawlessly.
If you have any ideas to make it work better please let me know.
Still i wanted to share my achievement with you.
