Well here is the output generated by the DMX_Master component, do you think the 0us Inter Byte Gap is the issue - if so is there a method of requesting the higher Ups to edit the component?

Thanks

Using the FC DMX component I can also get a valid signal as long as the outputted values don't change, when I added a simple macro that ramped the first 3 channels up and down at 3 different rates from 5 to 220 the fixture couldn't cope with the signal and the light flickered all over the place. I a...

Hi Martin,

Great news, I am getting a valid signal on my tester, here are the details it is giving me.

I have tried running Martins file on my 18877 setup to see if the output is a valid DMX signal however it won't compile to target. Thanks Ben This is the error: G:\My Drive\Moonwalk\Moonwalk 2025\DMX Pic>"C:\Program Files (x86)\Flowcode\Common\Compilers\picv2\bin\xc8-cc.exe" -mcpu=16F18877...

If this is any help this document about DMX is really we written from someone making DMX stuff using atmels - I have made a few of his projects and they are great.

Thanks
Ben

Thank you so much, I have uploaded it to the chip but unfortunately i can't get the chip to output, I have added an output for an led (C1) on the 2nd loop but it is failing to flash so I think the chip maybe freezing somewhere in the SenDMXpacket macro.

Sorry

Ben

Thank you, I am running it on a 18877 @32mhz The problems start when I am constantly changing the output values as when the values don't change the output is consistent otherwise the channels seem to jump around. I am almost at the point of scrapping the project as it is due to go live next week and...

Hi All, Having spent weeks trying to get the DMX master to output a stable signal I have eventually worked out there is something suspect with it. I have tried the output on multiple devices with different degrees of success. A 3 channel DMX fixture (RGB) behaves very oddly on a 3 channel output how...

Ok, just tried it with FC10 and get the same result i.e. really flaky intermittent receiving of the DMX signal on the fixtures. Can anyone please share a working bit of code that sends out a continuous DMX signal that is constantly changing as from looking at the output it seems that when I update a...
