Select from two "DMX over Ethernet" protocols: ArtNet and sACN (e1.31).
What is ArtNet and what is sACN?
ArtNet is an Ethernet protocol based on the TCP/IP protocol suite. Its purpose is to allow transfer of large
amounts of DMX512 data over a wide area using standard networking technology.
.
Streaming ACN (sACN) is a protocol to efficiently transport DMX universes over the network. It is
comparable to ArtNet in many aspects. The multicast option allows very easy configuration. sACN is a
popular protocol to control large number of RGB LEDs.
Both are Ethernet protocols for sending DMX universes over the network, with a few minor differences.
ArtNet allows the user to use the RDM protocol.
When using the sACN protocol, the universe 0 cannot be used. The system will show a warning sign if the
universe 0 + sACN protocol has been chosen. Also, it is not possible to use RDM functionality when sACN
protocol is used.
