DMX Light

For years I have been looking into DMX controllers, DMX lights and MIDI controllers to see how they work and how I could make some lights/controllers my self. I have made a number of DMX controllers that sends the DMX signal to the lights but I have not made a DMX light before. This light is the first DMX light that I have made.
The controller is the PLEX controllerwhich allows easy access to a 16X2 LCD. This controller allows the setting for the light to be changed and set. The light has different modes including colour fading, colour stepping, solid colour and DMX.
The program uses the RGB LED Library that allows control of RGB LEDs and the fading between colors. the program also uses a DMX library to read the incoming DMX signal
