Lighting Communications Development Platform
The Lighting Communications Development Platform provides a universal lighting development platform for the creation of communications enabled lighting applications. The platform consists of a main board and various communications interface adapters to support in the development of DALI, DMX512A, as well as future protocols (eg. RF).
To utilize the communications platform, a minimum of (2) main or (2) prototyping boards and (2) adapters are required – connected via appropriate cabling (eg. RJ45 patch cable, DMX512A 5-pin barrel cable, or DALI 2-wire). The communication platform is compatible with commercially available DALI/DMX512A products and can be integrated into existing lighting networks during development or utlized with multiple communication platforms to simulate large lighting networks.

The Lighting Communications Development Platform consists of:
- Main communications board
- Prototyping board
- Communications interface adapters
- DALI
- DMX512A
- Future protocol support (eg. RF)
The following is required:
- Minimum of (2) main or (2) prototyping boards
- Minimum (2) adapters
- Connected via appropriate cabling:
- RJ45 patch cable
- DMX512A 5-pin barrel cable
- DALI 2-wire
- Connected via appropriate cabling:
