DMX CTC-DRA-10-R2 slave mode conceptinetics

Hello,
I am relative new, i bought a shield for DMX CTC-DRA-10-R2 to receive DMX data.
I would like to read 2 dmx channels and pending on their value set 6 different outputs.
(open/close/stop a curtain)
(turn increase / decrease / hold the light value in a venue)

I could upload my sketch and changed the jumper wire to 'EN' afterwards. I cannot use serial print due to the serial port is used by the shield.

the code is based on the 'slave' example downloaded with the library

#include <Conceptinetics.h>

//
// CTC-DRA-13-1 ISOLATED DMX-RDM SHIELD JUMPER INSTRUCTIONS
//
// If you are using the above mentioned shield you should 
// place the RXEN jumper towards G (Ground), This will turn
// the shield into read mode without using up an IO pin
//
// The !EN Jumper should be either placed in the G (GROUND) 
// position to enable the shield circuitry 
//   OR
// if one of the pins is selected the selected pin should be
// set to OUTPUT mode and set to LOGIC LOW in order for the 
// shield to work
//

//
// The slave device will use a block of 10 channels counting from
// its start address.
//
// If the start address is for example 56, then the channels kept
// by the dmx_slave object is channel 56-66
//
#define DMX_SLAVE_CHANNELS   2 

//
// Pin number to change read or write mode on the shield
// Uncomment the following line if you choose to control 
// read and write via a pin
//
// On the CTC-DRA-13-1 shield this will always be pin 2,
// if you are using other shields you should look it up 
// yourself
//
///// #define RXEN_PIN                2


// Configure a DMX slave controller
DMX_Slave dmx_slave ( DMX_SLAVE_CHANNELS );

// If you are using an IO pin to control the shields RXEN
// the use the following line instead
///// DMX_Slave dmx_slave ( DMX_SLAVE_CHANNELS , RXEN_PIN );


const int DOEKOPEN  = 10;
const int DOEKDICHT = 11;
const int DOEKSTOP  = 12;
const int LICHTAAN  = 7;
const int LICHTUIT  = 8;
const int LICHTSTOP = 9;
 
// the setup routine runs once when you press reset:
void setup() {             
  
  // Enable DMX slave interface and start recording
  // DMX data
  dmx_slave.enable ();  
  
  // Set start address to 1, this is also the default setting
  // You can change this address at any time during the program
  dmx_slave.setStartAddress (1);
  
  // Set led pin as output pin
  pinMode ( DOEKOPEN,   OUTPUT );
  pinMode ( DOEKDICHT,  OUTPUT );
  pinMode ( DOEKSTOP,   OUTPUT );
  pinMode ( LICHTAAN,   OUTPUT );
  pinMode ( LICHTUIT,   OUTPUT );
  pinMode ( LICHTSTOP,  OUTPUT );

//  digitalWrite ( VCCPIN   , HIGH );
//  digitalWrite ( GROUNDPIN, LOW  );
  //xin (9600);
}

// the loop routine runs over and over again forever:
void loop() 
{
  //
  // EXAMPLE DESCRIPTION
  //
  // If the first channel comes above 50% the led will switch on
  // and below 50% the led will be turned off
  
  // NOTE:
  // getChannelValue is relative to the configured startaddress
  //    // DOEKDICHT
  if ( dmx_slave.getChannelValue (1) < 50 )
    digitalWrite ( DOEKDICHT, HIGH );
  else
    digitalWrite ( DOEKDICHT, LOW );
  //    // DOEKOPEN  
  if ( dmx_slave.getChannelValue (1) > 200 )
    digitalWrite ( DOEKOPEN, HIGH );
  else
    digitalWrite ( DOEKOPEN, LOW );
  //    // DOEKSTOP 
    if ( (dmx_slave.getChannelValue (1) > 49) && (dmx_slave.getChannelValue (1) < 201) )
    digitalWrite ( DOEKSTOP, HIGH );
  else
    digitalWrite ( DOEKSTOP, LOW );
  //    // LICHTUIT
  if ( dmx_slave.getChannelValue (2) < 50 )
    digitalWrite ( LICHTUIT, HIGH );
  else
    digitalWrite ( LICHTUIT, LOW );
  //    // LICHTAAN  
  if ( dmx_slave.getChannelValue (2) > 200 )
    digitalWrite ( LICHTAAN, HIGH );
  else
    digitalWrite ( LICHTAAN, LOW );
  //    // LICHTSTOP 
    if ( (dmx_slave.getChannelValue (2) > 49) && (dmx_slave.getChannelValue (2) < 201) )
    digitalWrite ( LICHTSTOP, HIGH );
  else
    digitalWrite ( LICHTSTOP, LOW );

      
}

Jumper settings after uploading sketch are:

EN <= NOT EN
SLAVE <= MASTER
TX-io <= TX uart
RX-io <= RX uart

So all jumpers are left side.

thanks in advance for feedback/help

best regards!

As I read my post again, the issue is that nothing is happening when the dmx channels are changing values..

BR

Dude, did you solve the problem?
I've the same DMX shield but I can't send or receive any DMX command.

Hey, have any you have it working eventually ?

What is sending the DMX data and is this data really being sent on channels 1 & 2?

Yes,

it got solved! Thank you for your patience...
you really have to push hard on the shield for make complete connection with the arduino (even try another arduino uno..). this was the main issue. the jumper settings have to be all om the right hand side.

thanks
