Visual Productions IOCORE, Manual, Page: 36 / 58

Typically, this field contains a broadcast address like 2.255.255.255 which will
send the Art-Net data to the 2.x.x.x IP range. Another typical Art-Net broad-
cast address is 10.255.255.255. When using broadcast address 255.255.255.255
then all the devices on the network will receive the Art-Net data.
It is also possible to fill in a unicast address like 192.168.1.11; in this case
the Art-Net data will be send to one IP address only. This keeps the rest of the
network clean of any Art-Net network messages.
8.4 GPI
The GPI ports can be configured either as digital (contact-closure) or as analog
(0-10V) input.
In case a port is set as analog and the signal supplied falls within the 0-10V
range (e.g. 1-5V) then it is recommended to calibrate to port in order to map
the minimal voltage to a logical 0% and map the maximum voltage to 100%.
To perform a calibration first enable the Calibrate button, then bring the
incoming signal to the minimum level, bring the signal to the maximum level
and then close the calibration process by clicking the Calibrate button again.

Caution: Applying a voltage > 10V could damage the IoCore.
8.5 GPO
This section shows the status of the GPO relays and provides buttons to switch
them directly.
8.6 RS-232
Settings for RS-232 communication like baudrate and stopbits.
