DMX <-> xPL





Sitting in the car on the M25 :( I was thinking about the xPL DMX
connector and a wish list - which is always much easier if you aren't
going to have to develop the code!

It would be nice to configure the connector by interface type so that
variations can be added - after a while the common ones would be
supported. Also multiple instances/interfaces to allow for multiple
universes.

Next, to name/alias channels. So channel_1=lounge_skt_1,
channel_2=lounge_ downlght, etc. Otherwise it is going to be
difficult coming back to the install to remember which channel does
what.

Zoning channels together would complete things. So zone=lounge
action=255 would set all lights to 255. I guess you'd have
zone=lounge channels=1,2,5,12 (or similar).

Any thoughts?
