plans for RDM - remote device management ? #53

This looks like a very interesting repo. do you plan to add RDM in the future? I am hoping to find an option to set DMX addresses and other parameters like PWM frequency, Gamma curves etc via RDM on all attached LED dimmer DMX devices.

I have an Enttec Storm8 artnet device https://www.enttec.com/product/uncategorized/storm-8-8-universe-ethernet-to-dmx-gateway/ and send DMX to these dimmers https://www.sunricher.com/din-rail-mounted-dmx512-decoder-sr-2103din.html#product_tabs_resources

Until now I always set their addresses by hand, but someone showed me how they were able to use a grandMA console https://www.malighting.com/grandma3/ to address all daisy chained dimmers in a sequential order. I assume that was done via RDM. So it should be possible to do without such cancellation console and just use code.

Thanks.

Hi, i'm currently not planning to add new features, lacking the use case and the necessary hardware. I'd however accept merge requests, alternatively you can ofc fork this to add it.
