For systems that need the most universes, the Multiverse Transmitter is capable of transmitting up to 10 universes of DMX over the 2.4 GHz bandwidth, perfect for ColorSource relay Multiverse Receivers. The Multiverse Transmitter can receive DMX via a
You should use a separate show WiFi network, on a dedicated WiFi AP/Router. Don’t just add your light controllers to your home WiFi- you WILL have issues. I also recommend you set it up as a “hidden” network- look for a “Don’t Broadcast SSID” or similar option on your AP/Router.

Before I go any further- I need to cover programming the D1 Mini. It isn’t too difficult, but I’m also not going to get into a whole tutorial on using the Arduino IDE. There are a LOT of resources online. I just want to cover the specifics for this application. There are other “DMX” or “E1.31” test apps available for Windows, Mac, iPhone/iPad, Android, etc. Once you have things working, you probably want to install your relay into some kind of a box. Here is what I did…If you have plenty of DMX ports, the hard-wired ColorSource Relay DMX is perfect to fine-tune your power distribution. You will also need a “D1 Mini Relay Shield”, which again you can find through a variety of online retailers. D1 Mini Relay Shield railSwitch is an elegant solution to the automation of various devices in theatre, touring and architectural markets. Applications include animatronics, fog machines, theatre practicals, cue lights and video remote control.
