DMX512 MODULE

Description

This Arduino add-on allows you to use the Arduino as a DMX master device (transmitter). This board is a simple circuit based around a driver chip (MAX-485 or SN 75176) with an XLR 3 pin male DMX output connector. Pin1 = Signal Common, Pin2 = Data-, Pin3 = Data+. The board converts the Arduino signal voltage according to DMX (RS485). Impedance is 100 Ohm.

This product is a replacement of: VMA432

Features

• Broad application possibilities: Whether you aim to create custom light shows, control smoke machines, or develop innovative stage effects, this module offers the flexibility needed for a range of creative projects.
• Accurate signal conversion: By converting the 5V Arduino signal to the RS485 protocol (upon which DMX is based), the module ensures reliable and consistent communication between the Arduino® and DMX devices.
• Versatile connectivity: With a standard XLR 3-pin DMX output connector, the module seamlessly integrates with a wide range of DMX-compatible equipment.
• Made in Belgium : Whadda is a unique brand from Belgium’s Velleman Group that offers DIY projects for hobbyists or makers who want to immerse themselves in electronics, programming and mechanics.
• STEM project: Develop and improve your STEM skills and acquire the knowledge, skills and experience needed to face the technological challenges of the future with this educational kit. This educational kit will trigger a number of processes such as problem-solving, investigative and creative thinking.
