Sending Bit patterns via a Nomad

RasperPI or Arduino for Translation?

I was hoping to get the bit pattern out of the Nomad but if that is not feasible then Arduino as I have a colleague with some experience in that space Cheers

you can get nomad to send every combination of 1 and 0, but not in the combinating way you probably were hoping for.
nomad exposes the decimal representation of those 8 bits. so you can write a personality that has 256 different ranges and label those ranges. this will however not give an easy way of going from e.g. 10010010 to 00010010. you would have to read through a list of 256 different range labels to find the one you're looking for.

if you go the arduino way you probably want to look into a way to combine 8 separate DMX addresses into your pattern. so addresses 1 thru 8 with values e.g. 0, 0, 0, 255, 0, 0, 255, 0 would be mangled into 00010010.

We have do similiar same.
With Servos for roller blind.

Send from EOS via Midi to an Arduino, this translate and give the Servo a "drive time".
From knowing Resetpoint the Servo drives with this a specific angle
Every Midi Note set a specific drive time.

For a Realy i think it is easier, because you only need "On-Off"

Hello Carla,

you said something about a DMX-Controlled  Relays-Controller.

Something like this? https://www.dmx4all.de/produkte/dmx-relais-8-inrush/

If so, why need a bit Pattern? Isn't it just about sending DMX?
