Draft revision to DMX512-A standard available for comment

BSR E1.11 – 200x, Entertainment Technology–USITT DMX512-A, Asynchronous Serial Digital Data Transmission Standard for Controlling Lighting Equipment and Accessories.

This revision of ANSI E1.11 – 2004, describes a protocol for transmitting digital data used to control entertainment lighting equipment and accessories. Entertainment lighting equipment and accessories includes, but is not limited to, dimmers, robotic luminaires, colour changers, robotic mirrors, dousers, colour wheels, motion effects wheels, and pattern rotators. The revision is being done to correct errors and to clarify text, and to add an Alternate START Code for UTF-8 transmission so that languages other English can be used for sending diagnostic text messages.

Comments close on 8 July, 2008.

(Unofficial note for anyone who wants to read a copy of the DMX512-A standard. The ongoing drafts of this standard, freely available for download and comment, will be almost identical to the one that you will later be able to buy from ESTA or USITT.)
