•
Refresh rate: Ca. 44 Hz when 512 channels are being sent, depending on the amount of RDM requests sent
from the controller and further reduced during RDM discovery.
•
Break length: Ca. 180 µS.
•
Mark after break: Ca. 40 µS.
The
DMX Output Mode
Relaxed
has the following behavior:
•
Refresh rate: Ca. 30 Hz when 512 channels are being sent, depending on the amount of RDM requests sent
from the controller and further reduced during RDM discovery.
•
Break length: Ca. 300 µS.
•
Mark after break: Ca. 80 µS.
•
A small delay of about 20 µS is inserted between slots to reduce the update rate. This may reduce problems
such as flickering when legacy fixtures are in use.
Merge Mode
Under
Merge Mode
, a selection list is presented to you with the following options:
•
HTP
: Highest takes precedence. If for a given DMX channel data has been received from two sources, the
higher value is used.
•
LTP
: Latest takes precedence. If for a given DMX channel data has been received from two sources, LTP
merging uses the value of whichever source was the last to change the value it has sent for that given
channel.
•
Off
: Merging is disabled.
Merging is applied when two Art-Net or sACN controllers send data for the same port. If more than two
controllers send data for the same port, the following rules take effect:
•
Art-Net: The first two appeared data streams are merged. All following ones are discarded.
•
sACN: The first two streams with the same priority are merged. Further streams of the same or lower priority
are discarded. If a stream with higher priority appears, the lower priority ones will be discarded.
A bullet point is shown next to the currently active setting. Use the encoder wheel to select the desired setting and
push [OK], to apply the setting.
Failure Behaviour
Under
Failure Behaviour
, a selection list is presented to you with the following options:
•
Off
: The output will stop sending DMX, after no updates for the universe of the output have been received
for 10 seconds
1
.
•
Hold Last Look
: The output will continue to send the last look even if no updates are received.
A bullet point is shown next to the currently active setting. Use the encoder wheel to select the desired setting and
push [OK] to apply the setting.
Art-Net RDM
Under
Art-Net RDM,
RDM may be enabled or disabled for the output. Art-Net RDM can also be enabled for sACN
ports. XND-4 discovers a maximum of 250 devices per output port.
All the previously described settings can be changed via web interface on the Port Settings Page from page 27.
