Hello together,
I bought one of these boards:
https://www.ebay.de/itm/New-Wireless-DM ... SwnbZYHhya
Now I wonder how to connect this board to my Raspberry Pi. In the description, as one possibility, UART is mentioned.
Does anyone here been using this or a similar board and can tell me how to usw it with the RPI?
Thanks in advance!

In the description they mention RS485. This is a DMX signal that it wants for input. You need to convert the 3.3V UART signal to RS485 before attaching it to the Wireless DMX512 board.
But this is a nice idea for portable equipment. A wireless Pi-HAT would be great.

Hi karrika,
Thanks for your answer. I will try to do that!
I'm very new to this kind of stuff... so I don't really know what a HAT is, sorry
But I can tell you what I want to do: I have some LED wrist bands (picture attaced) from a big event, I was. I read that these are controlled via W-DMX. I'm not sure if this board is working with the bands, but I thought ~8€ wouldn't kill me I want to use the PI as a webserver, then make a show and only start it with a smart phone.
As already mentioned, I'm really new to this stuff and alittle assisatnce would be great
Thanks in advance!!

It is in German, but since I had seen a German eBay link with you, maybe it helps ...
Just give me a feedback if further questions are present.
