I believe this is due to the the physics of the lamps, since many commercial dimmers provide a "standby" voltage to keep incandescent filaments warm. [/quote]I loaded your code and took a look at an output with my o-scope. The problem isn't related to the lamps, the problem is your code isn't firing the outputs until 50%. In addition the outputs "snap" from 50% to 100% when you move from DMX intensity 99% to 100%. Basically you are only getting the lower 1/2 of the dimming range. There is something odd going on in the code. I will try to pour though it and see if I spot anything. ---------- End of Message ---------- You can view the post on-line at: http://forums.parallax.com/forums/default.aspx?f=7&p=1&m=263685#m285849 Need assistance?
