Send dmx trames using wifi

Post by Chocapic »

Hi everyone,

I am making a wireless dmx interface.
I would like Freestyler to communicate with a raspberry pi or an arduino via wifi.
I could write a programme that work in background task. It could get the dmx values from freestyler and send them to the raspberry pi that would convert them into dmx again.

Do someone know how to get the dmx values from freestyler without suing an interface ?

Thanks for your help and excuse my english.

I have just begun looking into the Pi (for a similar use? - wireless Art-net > DMX expander) so am not sure if it has a library function for it, but you could possibly set up Art-Net to transmit the data between Freestyler and the Pi, then convert the Art-net back to DMX using the Pi (again, depending on it's interface and library availability).

It's a good idea, thank you. I think that it should works.
I will try something like that and after I will tell you.
