Hi there,
We're looking at combining 2 x 8bit DMX inputs via Artnet into Widget Designer Pro to move an X position on a layer or effect move.
The DMX signal will comes from a motor control system reading encoders.
The idea of this is to increase the resolution to a 16bit thus 65536 instead of only 256 moves for smother image tracking.
Using a multiply node by a factor of x256 on (Chan 2) and then adding to the (Chan 1) 0-255 values gives us this resolution fine,
For testing purposes, We are starting two WD counters set at 0-255 at the same time in place of the Artnet channels,
We do see a jump in the layer move in a fraction of a second, as the counter clicks over over from 255 to 0 as the (Chan 2 x 256) increases by each block of 256
Are we likely to see this jumping back using actual artnet information? any tips on smoothing/dampening this number other than the obvious nodes?
Thanks,
