LINK - www.agfreelanc... Turn your Raspberry Pi into a Artnet or SACN Gateway using OLA. If you would like some more projects, drop this video a like. If you have any questions drop them in the comments or use my website.
Great article, adding an RS485 output to a pi pin is easy enough but how do you route the data to it. And can more universes be added to more pi pins easy enough. A next project on that subject would be awesome.
Nice Tutorial. But why using VNC etc... You can do all the Terminal stuff by Using Putty, (i'm using Linux so i SSH into my pi) If the Pi is used as ART-NET GateWay then it will run without an monitor ;-) And in future releases of Linux(Debian) Where the PI os is build on apt-get command is getting obsolete use apt for it ;-) for example : sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y Also the make command can be speed up by using multiple cores of the CPU make -j4 will use 4 cores so it does not take 1 hour but about 20 minutes ;-) Disabling the GUI so download the bare version in stead. Will speed up the build process also.
Hi, using Ola right now, connected 4 FTDI device, but with open dmx driver, adapter are recognized but no dmx output, using FTDI driver I can manage only 1 universe, any suggestion?thanks
hi im hoping you will help me im installing ola to my rpi and when i follow your procedures is going fine but on the part of ./configure --enable-rmd-tests after that is always ask me the ola currently requires protobuf
Hi, I haven’t tested this but I believe in the new versions of rasbian you can just run “sudo apt-get install ola”. This should install it all automatically. There are written instructions on the link in the video :)
DHL2002 Not necessarily, as long as OLA is set to auto run once the pi powers on its should all run automatically. Step 7 in the written tutorial would help you here
At this point in the video - 11:34, I received an error saying, checking for libprotobuf... yes checking for libprotobuf2... no configure: error: OLA currently requires protobuf < 3.2, see issue 1192 Any ideas how to fix? I went back and got the same... Help!!
Hi Rob, if you check the website link I’ve not too long ago posted an update. Due to changes within the operating system you can now use the single command (sudo apt-get install ola) that will install everything needed and includes the auto start. I would still follow the tutorial however for information on setting up DMX and also connecting through the browser. Any questions drop me a message
