Good day. Has anybody set up DMX on Kincony A24's RS485 in EspHome in Home Assistant? I tried installing the Github add-in at https://github.com/andyboeh/esphome-dmx512, but I'm a beginner and haven't gotten it to work so far. The Kincony's input and outputs work fine, but I don't know how to proceed. I've put this in the Kincony's Yaml file, and the logger reports the value being sent to DMX_1, but my fixture's DMX indicator doesn't come on, so I don't even know if I wired it correctly. Anyway, here are the Yaml settings:
uart:
