{"title":"Arduino DMX Shield","handle":"arduino-dmx-shield","url":"/products/arduino-dmx-shield","description":"The Arduino DMX Shield is a low-cost, high-quality interface that connects your Arduino to DMX512 lighting networks. Built around the MAX485 transceiver and equipped with NEUTRIK XLR 3-pin connectors (one male, one female), it can operate as a DMX Master, Slave, or RDM transponder. Each shield receives a unique RDM device ID for worldwide identification.\n\nConfigurable onboard jumpers let you select TX/RX pins, choose between hardware slave mode and software-controlled master/slave (required for RDM), and enable/disable the shield without disconnecting it — handy for uploading new sketches.\n\nKey Features\n\n\nDMX512 Master & Slave – Send and receive DMX data for lighting control\n\nRDM Transponder – Remote Device Management with unique device ID\n\nNEUTRIK XLR Connectors – High-quality 3-pin male and female connectors\n\nMAX485 Transceiver – Reliable RS-485 communication for DMX protocol\n\nConfigurable Jumpers – Select TX/RX pins, master/slave mode, and enable/disable\n\nDisable Jumper – Disconnect shield from serial lines for easy sketch uploading\n\n\nJumper Configuration\n\n\nTX Pin: Arduino TX or digital pin 4\n\nRX Pin: Arduino RX or digital pin 3\n\nMode: Hardware slave or software-controlled master/slave via digital pin 2\n\nEnable/Disable: Disconnect shield without removing it\n\n\nIdeal For\n\nControlling DMX512 stage and architectural lighting\nInteractive art installations with DMX fixtures\nCustom lighting controllers and sequences\nDMX-driven props and special effects\n\n\nPackage Contents\n\n1× Arduino DMX shield\n\n\nResources\n\nUser Manual (PDF)\nDMX Library & Wiki (SourceForge)\nArduino Playground – DMX Shield\n","vendor":"DFRobot","product_type":"physical","in_stock":true,"options":[],"variants":[{"id":10978,"title":"Default Title","sku":"DF-DFR0260","price":32.18,"compare_at_price":0.0,"on_sale":false,"in_stock":true,"available_quantity":400,"option1":"Default Title"}]}
