This is a library for sending and receiving DMX codes using the Arduino plattform. You can implement DMX devices and DMX controllers with this library.
The DMX communication implemented by the DMXSerial library relys completely on the hardware support of a builtin USART / Serial port interface by using interrupts that handle all I/O transfer in the background.
There is a full 512 byte buffer allocated to support all possible DMX values of a line at the same time.
Since Version 1.5.0 the original ATmega168 based implementation was refactored and enhanced to support also other processor architectures like the ATMEGA4809.
The supported processors and Arduino Boards are:
- Arduino UNO, Ethernet, Fio, Nano and Arduino Pro, Arduino Pro Mini (ATmega328 or ATmega168)
- Arduino Mega2560 (ATmega2560)
- Arduino Leonardo (Atmega32U4)
- Arduino nano Every (ATMEGA4809)
Other compatible boards my work as well.
You can find more detail on this library at http://www.mathertel.de/Arduino/DMXSerial.aspx.
A suitable hardware is the Arduino platform plus a shield for the DMX physical protocol implementation. You can find such a shield at: http://www.mathertel.de/Arduino/DMXShield.aspx.
Without or some modification this library can also used with other DMX shields that use the Serial port for connectting to the DMX bus.
