DMX USB Pro compatible controller
Project description
DmxPy - Python Controller for USB - DMX devices
DmxPy is a super-lightweight Python library for controlling any USB-DMX device that is compatible with Enttec's USB DMX Pro, including all Dmxking ultraDMX devices.
DmxPy requires PySerial to work
There is a console interface for basic sanity testing and validation
For detailed usage instructions
dmxpy -h
To black out (turn off) the lights when the DMX is on port COM4
dmxpy --port COM4 -b
To turn on all the lights at 50% (level 128)
dmxpy -p /dev/ttyUSB2 --level 128 -w
To play the demo light pattern with the default level at 200, auto-detect USB port
dmxpy -l 200 --demo
For more specific use cases use the DmxPy module
To import
from dmxpy import DmxPy
To initialize
dmx = DmxPy.DmxPy('serial port')
where 'serial port' is where your device is located, .e.g, /dev/ttyUSB1 or COM3
If None, attempt to identify port based on grep expression: hwid, serial number, etc
To set a channel's value
dmx.setChannel(chan, value)
where 'chan' and 'value' are integers representing the respective DMX channels and values to set!
To push dmx changes to device
dmx.render()
You need to call this to update the device!
