I have LED costumes controlled wirelessly via xbee. I send a char to the costumes and they run a light pattern based on what char is received. I want to incorporate one arduino as a slave in a dmx universe that will receive a specific dmx signal packet as a command to tell the arduino to send a char via xbee to the costumes. That way I can sequence the light patterns to music. Can someone point me in the right direction?
I'm guessing the setup would be like this:
dmx -> dmx shield -> arduino1(receive dmx signal -> arduino1(send serial signal) -> xbee1(transmit serial)
-> xbee2(receive serial) -> arduino2(LED costume)
