Closed fralbo closed 5 years ago

fralbo commented 6 years ago

hello,

Looking at the config file, I'm wondering how to specify the driver access point on Win 10?

BR, Alain

@fralbo Sorry I can't really help you here as I do not have a Windows machine to test on, but as far as I remember the SerialPort are called something like COM2, COM3 etc.

We use the nodejs package serialport which has support for windows and I found this gist which might help you testing it: https://gist.github.com/maximilian-lindsey/b5a981d3657627bfbb89 If you suceed please let us know, then we update the documentation!

Cheers Max

Yes, I suppose it should be as simple. I'm waiting for the device. I'll let you know ASAP.

@fralbo Have you found a solution to this ? :-)

Thanks,

I guess this issue got resolved due to no response in the last months - Feel free to reopen it if there are still questions!

Hello,

I'm starting to try dmx-web on windows. So far, I'm happy. You can check here https://gist.github.com/gabrielstuff/bb3b69926c32cf5164467b1a45fc7c47 how to do. Basically, you look at your serial settings and find what is the COM : COM1, COM2, COM3, COM4, COM5

It should show as Serial USB (COMX)
