4.8 Ethernet connection
The fixtures on a data link are connected to the Ethernet with Art-Net communication protocol.The controlling
software from PC (or lighting console) has to support Art-Net protocol.
Art-Net communication protocol is a 10 Base T Ethernet protocol based on the TCP/IP.Its purpose is to allow
transfer of large amounts of DMX 5 data over a wide area using standard network technology.
IP address
is the Internet protocol address.The IP uniquely identifies any node (fixture) on a network.
The Universe
is a single DMX 5 frame of 5 channels.
The ColorWash 750E AT Tungsten Tungsten is equipped with 8-pin RJ- 45 socket for Ethernet input.Use a
network cable category 5 (with four “twisted” wire pairs) and standard RJ-45 plugs in order to connect the fixture
to the network.

Patch cables that connect fixtures to the hubs or LAN sockets are wired 1:1,that is,pins with the same numbers
are connected together:

3-3
4-4
5-5
6-6
7-7
8-8
If only the fixture and the computer are to be interconnected,no hubs or other active components are needed.A
cross-cable has to be used:

Direct Ethernet operation
Connect the Ethernet inputs of all fixtures in the fixture chain with the network.
Option “ Ethernet” has to be selected from “Set Ethernet Mode” menu on the fixture.
Set IP address (002.xxx.xxx.xxx / 010.xxx.xxx.xxx) and the Universe.
(DMX address=47)
(DMX address=24)
