Snow machine
« on: November 30, 2016, 02:29:22 AM »
Hi everyone
 :D
I'm using holiday coro alpha 16v2 board with xlights and all going great.
Would I be able to add a snow machine through the dmx rs485 ports?
Please help any advice much appreciated.

Thankyou

Barry

Hi, Bazzabee, I'm trying something for next season only with some  lights. I got a Velleman dmx  controlled relay switch to switch the lights. This is a soldering kit took a couple of hours to complete. It has switches to change the DMX channels, and connects to the rs485 port. I have it connected to my Alpha pix 4. Testing appears good. I'm sure that if you do not want to solder it can be purchased as a finished part.  Hope this helps  Charlie J.
