− | The Open Lighting Project is a multi-faceted effort aimed at accelerating the adoption of new, standardized control protocols, while also providing high quality, reliable, open software for the lighting industry. This site acts as a resource for anyone looking for information about DMX software and the associated control systems, as well as a variety of Open Source and Free lighting Software.

| |
− | The [[OLA | Open Lighting Architecture]] provides a framework for distributing lighting control information. It supports many protocols such as E1.31 (sACN), ArtNet, ShowNet, Pathport & RDM and over over a dozen USB devices. It can run as a standalone service, which is useful for converting signals between protocols, or alternatively it can be used as the backend for [[:Category:Controllers | Controller Applications]]. OLA runs on a many different platforms including ARM, which makes it a perfect fit for low cost Ethernet to DMX gateways.

| |
− | Testing RDM Responder used to involve manually sending commands and verifying the responses. Not any longer! The [[RDM_Responder_Testing | RDM Responder Tests]] automate all of this and provide a detailed breakdown of how well a responder complies with the [[E1.20]] (RDM) standard. This saves time during the product development process and raises the quality of RDM implementations across the industry.

| |
− | The [http://www.raspberrypi.org/ Raspberry Pi] is one of the most popular platforms for running [[OLA]]. With the addition of a USB to DMX device, one can build a low cost, but fully functional Ethernet gateway. The [[OLA_Raspberry_Pi | OLA on Raspberry Pi]] tutorial has a step by step guide to installing OLA on the Pi.
