The “Configure sACN Universe” options window
Mode
Each sACN universe can be either “Live” or “Preview”
output
– the Preview output option although configurable is
not currently implemented in ZerOS.
sACN Universe
sACN allocates a universe number to each DMX universe,
which must be the same on the FLX S and the receiving
device (the DMX output node or fixture, etc).
Priority
Each universe can be defined a Priority level (0-200)
–
sACN receptive devices will automatically listen for the
highest priority number received and respond to that
signal. In this way, multiple consoles can be running on a
network at the same time and can automatically take over
from one another .
Name
Each sACN universe can also have a unique name
associated with it, which can be entered using the
onscreen keyboard. This functionality allows you to identify
which universe is coming from which console on a larger
networked system.
Wings and ZeroWire
It is possible to use the Enttec Playback Wing as an
additional fader/playback wing for the ZerOS consoles.
Each key and fader can be assigned individually to allow a
truly configurable accessory, and multiple wings can be
supported simultaneously.
In the settings window, select and assign IP addresses as
required. Once the desk is at the correct IP address, you
should see the wing appear in a list below it. Press the
Configure key and a popup window will appear allowing
you to assign each of the keys and faders on the wing as
required. These settings will be stored as part of your show
file, so you can reuse the wing.
Zero Wire DMX is a legacy wireless DMX transmission
system from Zero 88. The system can be output directly
from the console and can then be routed via a Wireless
Access Point to Zero Wire DMX boxes which decode the
signal to DMX for linking to fixtures and dimmers, etc.
In the Zero Wire setup page there are a host of options,
which enable each DMX Universe on the desk to be routed
to an IP address with a unique Universe number (see
below). For more information, see the Zero Wire DMX user
manual, which can be found on the Zero 88 website.

Network devices
Network devices allow you to configure the functionality of
external Art-Net devices on the network. The options
available depend on the devices present on the network.
