E1.31 (sACN) to AdaLight Bridge Server

Compiling

To compile the bridging server, simply use the make utility:

$ make clean
$ make

You must have the libe131 (get it here) development library installed on your system. Once compiled, you can install the output binary file wherever you want.

Running

To run the program, you must supply at least a serial device and baud rate to use:

Usage: e131-adalight-bridge [-h] [-u universe] -d device -b baud_rate
Forward E1.31 (sACN) network data to an AdaLight serial device.

Options:
  -h             show this help screen
  -u universe    DMX universe number for Multicast (default: 1)
  -d device      serial device for communicating with AdaLight
  -b baud_rate   baud rate for the serial device

Note: because each DMX universe has a maximum of 512 channels and each RGB LED takes 3 channels (one per color), the maximum number of controllable AdaLight LEDs is 170.

Example invocation for AdaLight LEDs attached to /dev/ttyACM0 at 115200 baud using DMX universe 2:

$ ./e131-adalight-bridge -d /dev/ttyACM0 -b 115200 -u 2
