Controlling Philips Hue with DMX via QLC+

Raw

Controlling Philips Hue with DMX via QLC+

Should work on Windows, Linux and MacOS. I've only tested Windows so far.

Pre-requisites

NodeJS.
Philips Hue Bridge.
One or more Philips Hue products connected to the Hue Bridge.
Your computer should be running on the same network as your Hue devices.
Your firewall should allow connections between these devices on the local network. This is probably not something you have to change unless you've fiddled around with it manually before-hand.

Setup

Install QLC+. Download here so you can send signals to an ArtNet address.
Install the dmx-hue ArtNet server that translates DMX signals into Hue commands:

npm install -g dmx-hue

For more info, see the excellently documented repository here.

Press the button on your Hue Bridge to accept new incoming authentication request from your dmx-hue server.
Set up the dmx-hue connection to your Hue environment by running:

dmx-hue setup

Just leave everything by default unless you know what you're doing.

Usage

TODO: Still figuring this out
