Building OLA 0.10.3 / Raspbian Jessie / Raspberry Pi 3 -> enabled plug-ins : usbpro e131 artnet uartdmx {rdm-tester}

[Arjan van Vught]

Please find below my notes for installing OLA 0.10.3 / Raspbian Jessie on a Raspberry Pi 3 with the following plug-ins enabled :  usbpro e131 artnet uartdmx
This setup will take less than a hour.

Enable SSH
https://www.raspberrypi.org/blog/a-security-update-for-raspbian-pixel/

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade

Do the usual personalized sudo raspi-config actions
For example hostname : raspberrypi-3

Preventing Linux from using the serial port
http://elinux.org/RPi_Serial_Connection#Preventing_Linux_using_the_serial_port
Update : raspi-config -> 5 Interfacing Options ; Yes , No

Enable UART PL011
Add the following lines to the /boot/config.txt
# OLA UART DMX Output
dtoverlay=pi3-disable-bt
init_uart_clock=16000000
