Short Name
The short name can be viewed and edited under
Home > Menu > Art-Net > Short Name
. Editing the short name is
done in the same way the name is edited.
Port Settings
For each port, there is a settings menu under
Home > Menu > Ports > Port [1-4].
E.g. the
menu for port 1 is under
Home > Menu > Ports > Port 1
. The port settings menu contains the
items described below. When opening this screen with a double tap to the port button
(button [1]
–
button [4], see page 7) this menu is shown as a reduced version with only the
options required for configuring the current mode.
Universe
To adjust the universe of port X, navigate to
Home > Menu > Ports > Port X > Universe
. This
screen can also be reached by pressing the corresponding port button once.
This screen provides essential information about the DMX port and allows for changing its
Art-Net or sACN universe. For more information about the indicators on this screen, see
section Port Screen.
Use the encoder wheel for changing the universe of the given port. Once the desired universe appears on the screen,
push OK to use this universe or press cancel to revert to the previously configured universe.
Art-Net (Version 4)
This section describes the universe configuration screen of ports that are in Art-Net mode while the Art-Net version
is set to
Art-Net 4
.
The port address is the large number on the bottom of the display. While it is being edited, a
slowly blinking cursor is shown below the currently editable digit. Use the encoder to
increase or decrease that digit. Push the port button corresponding to the port that is being
edited to change the digit that is currently editable. Firmware versions 1.01 and later also
display the Art-Net net, the Art-Net sub-net and the Art-Net universe part of the port address on the lower half of
the display near the left edge.
If an input port is configured for Art-Net 4, data is transmitted to the directed broadcast IP address (e.g.
2.255.255.255).
For more information about the addressing of Art-Net ports, see section Representations of Art-Net Port Addresses
in the appendix.
Art-Net (Version 3)
This section describes the screen for editing the universe of a port running in Art-Net mode when the Art-Net version
is set to
Art-Net 3
.
The screen looks the same on devices with a firmware older than version 1.01 if the corresponding port is in Art-Net
mode and independent universes are disabled. Consult page 14 for details about the independent universes feature.
Please note that while the universe (large number on the right-hand side of the display) is
being edited but has not yet been stored, its background lights up and the number is
displayed in its inverted colour about once every second. If that is the case and you just want
to see the configured universe number, simply press [Cancel].
On the left-hand side of the screen, the following information is displayed on three lines below the status label (see
section Status Indication on page 11): Art-Net net, Art-Net sub-net and Art-Net sub-uni.
