Overview
The N
ODE
1 is an Ethernet to DMX bridging device. It accepts Artistic License's ArtNet (version 3 or
prior), PLASA’s Streaming ACN (ANSI E1.31), or Draft Streaming ACN protocols. There is one fully
isolated DMX512 port. The port can be configured as either an input or as an output.
The factory default configuration covers most applications. A web interface is used for all
configuration changes. Front panel LEDs show the status of the N
ODE
1 power, network connection,
and DMX512 signal.
Both versions of the N
ODE
1 are powered by Power over Ethernet (PoE – 802.3af). The architectural
version fits in many single gang wall boxes. The portable version has holes for truss mounting using
a C-clamp or half-coupler. The portable version also uses a rugged Ethercon connector for its
Ethernet connection.
