Example Configurations
The Net-X is extremely versatile, with DMX source capabilities and ethernet source
capabilities which can be combined so that the Net-X is simultaneously acting as a DMX
splitter, an ethernet-to-DMX adapter, and an ethernet node.
Example Configuration 1: Art-Net™ and DMX Sources
This example demonstrates one way to configure the Net-X to merge two Art-Net™ signals
with HTP, merge two DMX signals with LTP, and output both signals and another Art-Net™
signal to several separate DMX Out ports. The numbers used in this example are for
demonstrative purposes, and are only one of thousands of possible configurations.
First configure two Art-Net™ controllers to output signals on Net 0, Subnet 0, Universe 1, and
a third Art-Net™ controller to output a signal on Net 0, Subnet 0, Universe 2. Then do the
following:
1. Set the ethernet protocol for the Net-X to
ArtNet
. (See Ethernet Configuration.)
2. Set the
Net
setting to
0
. (See Configuring Art-Net™ Net Setting.)
3. Set the
Subnet
address to
0
. (See Art-Net™ Subnet Address.)
4. Set
IP Address #1
to
2.255.255.001
, and
IP Address #2
to
2.255.255.002
.
(See Configuring IP Addresses.)
5. Set the
Net Mode
to
HTP
, and the
DMX Mode
to
LTP
6. Set
Universe #1
and
#2
to
1
, and
Universe #5
,
#6
, and
#7
to
2
.
7. Set
DMX Output #1
,
#2
,
#5
,
#6
, and
#7
to
ArtNet Input
,
DMX Output #3
and
#4
to
DMX #1 Input
, and
DMX Output #8
to
Without Input
. (See Configuring DMX Outputs.)
8. Plug in all input cables and output cables as shown in the Example 1 Diagram.
