I'm looking to create logic so that i can treat a DMX gateway as a normal dimmer.
The gateway in question is the arcus-ed KNX-GW-DMX which sadly is unidirectional.
It is attached to 2 DMX controllers that output 24V for LED lightning in the house.
The way the gateway works is that i set it to a main group adress and the sub groups then handle the channels, so no objects.
For example the gateway is set to main group 13. If i want to switch ALL channels on i just send a "1" to 13/6/1, if i want to controll 1 channel i would send 80% to 13/0/1
13 being the main group, 0 the value input middle group and 1 is the channel number.
Now i want to treat this as a normal dimmer with memory (switch on with the last value), i however do net get any info back from the device. Only if i actively query the group (13/0/1) will i get a percentage back. Found out that will cause all sort of issues with endless loops happening :S
There is a DMX logic module, but that one lacks the dimming input (4bit)
Any ideas? or is there a module out there just for this?
ps. Running Homeserver 4.4
