Node Name:
The name the DIN
ETHERGATE will be discoverable with in
Poll replies.
DHCP:
Enabled by default. When enabled,
the DHCP server on the network is
expected to automatically provide the IP
address to the DIN ETHERGATE. If no DHCP
router/server is present or DHCP is
disabled, the DIN ETHERGATE will fall back
to the static IP address.
IP Address / NetMask / Gateway:
These
are used if DHCP is disabled or
unavailable. These options set the Static
IP address. These settings should be set
to be compatible with other devices on
the network.
sACN CID:
The DIN ETHERGATE’s unique
sACN Component Identifier (CID) is
displayed here and will be use in all sACN
communication.
Control4 Support:
Pressing this button
will send a SDDP (Simple Device Discovery
Protocol) packet to allow easier discovery
in Control4’s Composer software.
Type:
Choose from the following options:
Disabled - will not process any DMX
(input or output).
Input (DMX IN) – Will convert DMX from the Pheonix Connector to a DMX over Ethernet protocols.
Output (DMX Out) – Will convert Ethernet-DMX protocols to DMX on Pheonix Connector.
Protocol:
Choose between Art-Net, sACN and ESP as the Protocol.
RDM:
RDM (ANSI E1.20) can be Enabled using the tick box. This is only available when the Type is set to
Output and the Protocol is Art-Net. More information can be found in the Functional Features section of
this document.
Universe:
Set the
Ethernet-DMX protocol’s input Universe
.
Refresh Rate:
The rate at which the DIN ETHERGATE will output the Data from its DMX port (40 Frames per
second is default). It will repeat the last received frame to comply with DMX standard.
Options:
additional configuration is available depending on port type and protocol.
Input Broadcast/Unicast:
Choose either broadcasting or a specified unicast IP address. Broadcast
address is based on the subnet mask shown. Unicast allows you to define a specific single IP address.
Input sACN Priority:
sACN Priorities range from 1 to 200, where 200 has the highest priority. If you have
two streams on the same Universe, but one has the default priority of 100 and the other has a priority
of 150, the second stream will override the first. If they both have the same priority, the streams will
merge on an HTP (highest-takes-precedence) basis.
Output Merging:
When enabled, this can allow the merging for two
DMX sources from different IP address
whilst sending on the same Universe in either a LTP (Latest Takes Precedence) or HTP (Highest Takes
Precedence) merge.
More information can be found in the Functional Features section of this document.

All changes must be saved to take effect. The DIN ETHERGATE takes up-to 10 seconds to save.
