DMX port as output 

 
When a port is set up as a DMX output it can operate in the following modes; 

 

Disabled 

à

 the DMX output is disabled 

 

Outzero 

à

 the DMX sends out a DMX test signal with all channels at 0% 

 

Single  

à

 the output sends out the DMX values of the selected (primary) 

Art-Net, sACN or Shownet universe. The DMX output is enabled the first time 
it detects the DMX universe on the network (or internal DMX inputs). If the 
universe on the network fails, the DMX output will go into DMX hold. 

 

HTP   

à

 like single, but merges up to three DMX universes (primary, 

secondary and tertiary) in highest takes precedence. 

 

Priority 

à

 Will output the Universe assigned to the primary if primary is 

not present or available the universe assigned to secondary will be output 

 

FlexPatch 

à

 Can output a complex merge of three universes with a 

different merge or patch per channel. This can be set up in the dmXLAN 
software 

 
DMX port as input 

 
When a port is set up as a DMX input it can operate in the following modes; 

 

Disabled 

à

 the DMX input does nothing 

 

Normal 

à

 any valid DMX is sent onto the network (and internal use) 

using the selected universe (Art-Net) 

 

Backup 

à

 the DMX input will not send data if the selected universe is 

present on the network. If the selected universe is not present on the network 
for several seconds and the input has valid DMX, then it will send DMX data. 
If another sender starts sending the same universe, the input will go back into 
backup mode.
