MVP 2021 Joe Tauser Posted July 17, 2016 MVP 2021 Report Share Posted July 17, 2016 I have a customer who does it with a converter box that simplifies the codes. The box he uses takes RS232 commands; he writes his lighting shows in Unitronics and then send basic commands to the converter. DMX512 is based on the RS485 hardware layer, so it can theoretically be done with only the PLC. You'll have to get a copy of the DMX protocol and use the Protocol block to handle everything. Joe T.
