Art-Net
Art-Net is a lighting protocol which sends DMX data over Ethernet. The standard
allows for multiple DMX universes to be sent over a single Ethernet cable. The
ZerOS consoles can output upto 4 universes of DMX data via Art-Net.
Each Art-Net device needs an IP address starting with a 2.x.x.x or a 10.x.x.x, and
this setting must match on the desk itself. Each DMX universe must then be
allocated to a Port – Art-Net Ports numerate from 0-15, so it is generally
accepted that desk universe 1 will become Art-Net universe 0, however this is
user definable.
Art-Net enabled devices include Media Servers, Moving Lights and also dedicated
DMX output boxes such as the “1 Universe Ethernet Box” by Cooper Controls.
The system will look something like this:
Transmit Art-Net
- Enables or
Disables ArtNet transmission.
Network Switch
- 2 or 10.
ArtNet allows two separate
network IP ranges.
Each port can be allocated a
separate port, or be disabled.
This port must be matched with the
Art-Net receiving device (Light
Converse, etc).
Light Converse Integration
-
Allows additional functionality to
be used with Light Converse (eg
bi-directional patching, fixture
selection etc.)
Subnet
- The y number in
the 2.x.y.z IP range.
Used for multiple Art-Net
networks on a single network.
