<br>
I have this wild hare of an idea about 'rolling my own' DMX receiver / LED units for an upcoming project.<br>
<br>
I probably should just buy the spec and go from there, but the question I have is pretty simple and I'm sure there's an answer on the list.<br>
<br>
>From Wikipedia, "All slots following the start code contain control settings for slave devices. A slot's position within the packet determines the device and function to be controlled, while its data value specifies the control set point."<br>
<br>
So does that mean what it appears to mean? If I assign a receiver to slot 312 and only want to talk to receiver 312 that I have to send null data to 0 through 311 to get there, or can the data be double byte formatted "address;data" and I can decode it device by device as needed?<br>
<br>
Like I said, it's probably in the spec but it's Sunday morning and I'm lazy. . . .<br>

Shouldn't there be more to a circus than the clowns?<br>
