volatile int encoderPos = 0; //this variable stores our current value of encoder position. Change to int or uin16_t instead of byte if you want to record a larger range than 0-255 For systems that need the most universes, the Multiverse Transmitter is capable of transmitting up to 10 universes of DMX over the 2.4 GHz bandwidth, perfect for ColorSource relay Multiverse Receivers. The Multiverse Transmitter can receive DMX via a If you have plenty of DMX ports, the hard-wired ColorSource Relay DMX is perfect to fine-tune your power distribution. I have several of these that I use to toggle “dumb” display elements on and off. I also use them toggle my display PSUs on and off. I have a script in FPP that toggles everything on at the beginning of a playlist, and then off when it is finished (or when the scheduler stops it).

For customers in outlying areas of the country, the price of the Extended Warranty may be marginally higher, due to the potential for higher collection and redelivery transport costs.The product requires an external power source. We recommend PSU-24-0.75-FER – see PSU. railSwitch overview at PLASA London 2021 railSwitch provides six mains voltage relays that can be switched independently. It is housed in a high impact DIN Rail mounting case. You will also need a “D1 Mini Relay Shield”, which again you can find through a variety of online retailers. D1 Mini Relay Shield

You should get an instant answer on whether your application has been successful, though in some rare cases Klarna or V12 may need to look at the application in more detail. That’s it- now you can go to Tools -> Board -> Boards Manager, and install the “ESP8266” boards. When done, you can select: If you only wish to use 1 relay then you will not need parts R8, R9, R11, R12, D2, D3, D7, D8, TR2, TR3, RL2, RL3 & CN3 - 6. In addition if you only need one set of relay terminals you can also dispense with CN1. To use these to toggle “dumb” lighting and other elements- set up their universes and channels in your sequencing software (like xLights), and sequence them accordingly. Remember that by default- if Channel 1 (Red) is below 127 (50%) the relay will be OFF, and above 127 it will be ON. railSwitch offers a pre-set mode that enables it to run stored programmes without an active DMX controller. Other features include data loss mode (which determines what railSwitch should do in the event of loss of the DMX signal) and test mode, which is particularly useful during commissioning.

ColorSource Relay is a power control and data solution for temporary lighting positions.

I use Universe 1 for all of my “power” channels. Let’s say you set “universe=1” and then set a different channel for each one. You will end up with something like: Northlight's Relay board will receive DMX512 digital protocol and standard 0-10 VDC analog to control mechanical relays.

pinMode(pinB, INPUT_PULLUP); // set pinB as an input, pulled HIGH to the logic voltage (5V or 3.3V for most cases)

So, I want a 120v relay controlled by the same type of hardware as the rest of my show, so- the D1 Mini! Again- if there are any errors, Google is your friend. If you don’t see anything, or nothing but gibberish in the Serial Monitor- be sure it is set to the same “baud” (speed) as the D1 Mini. In my case- I set both to “115200”. You set the speed of the D1 Mini in the Board Configuration section in the Arduino IDE Tools menu. You can change the BAUD of the Serial Monitor using the drop-down option at the bottom of the window. Jumper selectable as DMX "sense" relay. When good DMX in, relay is closed, no DMX and the relay is open.

There are other “DMX” or “E1.31” test apps available for Windows, Mac, iPhone/iPad, Android, etc. Once you have things working, you probably want to install your relay into some kind of a box. Here is what I did… void rotaryMenu() { //This handles the bulk of the menu functions without needing to install/include/compile a menu library You should use a separate show WiFi network, on a dedicated WiFi AP/Router. Don’t just add your light controllers to your home WiFi- you WILL have issues. I also recommend you set it up as a “hidden” network- look for a “Don’t Broadcast SSID” or similar option on your AP/Router.Important: The D1 Mini can only access 2.4Ghz WiFi networks, not 5Ghz, so be sure to use an appropriate network. You also want to set the universe and channel for the relay. Here is where you need to make a decision… else if (reading == B00001000) aFlag = 1; //signal that we're expecting pinA to signal the transition to detent from free rotation You have almost unlimited E1.31 Universes, so the most straightforward way to do this if you are going to use multiple relays is just to use a Universe for each one. So “Relay 1” might be Universe 1, “Relay 2” would be Universe 2. You would just set “universe = 1”, and “channel=0” Channel 0 translates to “Red” on many light controllers, or it will actually be called “Channel 1”. Internally it is 0 though, which can be a bit confusing.
