DMX input monitor on FreeStyler

Post by binario1974 »

Good Morning at all.
How can be possible activate a DMX input on Freestyler?
I have buy one JMS USB2DMX pro, and if i test the dongle with one external DMX console
and use a simple windows Hyper Terminal, i am able to see that the DMX data enter to the
virtual serial port.

Now the simple question....

Is possible display on freestyler one simple page (full screen) with all 512 channels activity ?
or (if you know) may be alrealy available on internet this simble but VERY useful utility?

I use a complex dmx script programming for my jobs, to create attractions inside many themes park on Italy.
For test every possible error inside old attractions i need to check if the specific channels
vary during the times, and i need only a simple DMX512 monitor.

Best Regards.

You can't. FreeStyler can only 'read' from a Martin DMX interface. And that functions are only used to control things in FreeStyler. There's no 'input monitor' as far as I know.

I have no idea. But it should be possible for any software developer to create such a tool pretty quick.
I got the feeling you are going to use it in commercial applications so I'm not going to create it for you. :D
Unless you pay me to do that. :)
