following discovery methods can be used on a local network to discover devices:

 

 

ENTTEC  EMU  software  for  Windows  and  MacOS  (support  Mac  OSX  10.13  or  later),  which  will  Discover 

ENTTEC devices on the Local Area Network, displaying their IP addresses before opting to Configure the 

device, opening the Web Interface. 

 

 

An IP scanning software application (i.e. Angry IP Scanner) can be run on the local network to return a 

list of active devices on a local network.

 

 

Devices can be discovered using Art Poll (i.e. DMX Workshop if set to use Art-Net).

 

 

The device default IP address 192.168.0.10 will be printed on the physical label on the rear of the product.

 

Note

: The eDMX protocols, the controller and the device used to configure the OCTO MK2 must be on the 

same Local Area Network (LAN) and be within the same IP address range as the OCTO MK2. For example, if 

your OCTO MK2 is on Static IP address 192.168.0.10 (Default), then your computer should be set to something 

such as 192.168.0.20. It is also recommended that all devices Subnet Mask are the same across your network.

 

Top Menu 

The  top  menu  allows  all the  OCTO  MK2  web  pages  to  be  accessed.  Menu  option  is  highlighted  blue  to 

indicate which page the user is on. The ‘Light’ switch on the right-hand side enables dark mode providing 

flexible viewing experience.

connected to a specific OCTO MK2 without the need to provide control data.

: The timer will not restart when pressed consecutively.
