3C : DMX512

I"m steel using "Customisation Component Code" with Flowcde 4.5.18.

DMX512 is a protocol "close" to RS232.

My aim is that my pupils can manage a moving-head spot with a flowchart.

The hardware is :
- a Matrix board v3.3 (HP488 + 16F887) , an Eblock RS485 (EB062) and an XLR plug.
- a moving-head spot(VDPL1501MHS-W) in 5-channel mode (Pan, Tilt, Dimmer, Coulour, Gobo).

There will be "new" macros (within the RS232 component) :

- Init DMX
- Send Marks and Break
- Send Start Code Null
- Send 1 Data
- Send 8 Datas

That seems to be OK.
Update this post after a full test.

Sorry, for the little delay.

As written above, the flowchart is made for the Matrix board with 16F887 and an Eblock EB062 (RS485) on port C .

For changing the value of a channel , push a button (Port A) and turn the potentiometer connected on A1( jumper must be on "Analog")
LCD (port B) shows the values.

Comments within Flowchart are in French, sorry :oops:
