DMX Tester which can send and recive DMX values #49

Hi,

I want to build a little DMX tester box. And I have some questions.

  1. I want to have a little LED turn on as soon as any DMX value is received. It should check all 512 addresses and as soon as it receives one value above 0 turns the LED on. Is this possible or do you have to specify the address it "listens" to?

  2. I also want to make use of the Send function to send a test signal. How would I fade every address to 255 and back? And can I simultaneously us the Rx bin for receiving and the Tx pin for sending at the same time?

  3. Are teensy 3.2 boards supported? and if not, an Arduino Leonardo should be fine, right?

1 The DMXSerial always receives all bytes on the wire into the buffer. You need to loop through all buffer offsets and see when there is a value on any channel. 2 see DMXSerialFlow.ino 3 teensy no, leonardo yes.

Have a look into the DMXSniff example working with a Leonardo board. Please take the latest version from the GitHub repository.
