simple dmx-512 question



Wotchamates,

Recently I've started loathing X10 again, so I'm after replacing it with a
little of that ol' homebrew magic. From recent discussions here, I reckon
DMX
is the way to go.

Unforch, I can't find much in the way of free documentation. I understand
that
a DMX controller is regularly banging out DMX packets with the dimming info
in, and that the dimmers respond to each packet: my question is, if the
packets stop arriving, do the dimmers remember their last state (ie remain
at
the last brightness level) or do they turn off, or what?

cheers

ant
