Quick DMX Setup
To quickly configure the DMX settings for multiple ports of the nodeGBx 8, access the
Quick DMX Setup menu. This is a faster way to configure DMX for a range of ports all at
once, rather than having to set up each port by itself.
Upon entering the
Quick DMX Setup submenu, the front port LED indicators will turn
light blue, to indicate that DMX setup is active. First Port and Last Port determine which
range of ports you will be setting up. Select one of these choices and subsequently scroll
through the ports by rotating the encoder to set the first and last port of the DMX setup
you will be configuring. The LED indicators will be lit in light blue for the active range of
ports that you have selected (while the ports outside of the selected range will remain
dark). Under
Mode , select whether the selected ports will be set to Output mode ( single ,
double , triple or quad ), Input mode or Disabled .
When the output or input mode have been selected, the type of protocol to use can be
indicated. Go to
Input: or Output: (under Mode: ) and choose either Art-Net , sACN or
ShowNet . Next, you can indicate the starting address. Besides choosing the mode and in-
/output type, the LED indicators for your chosen port range can also be modified.
Selecting the
LED option will offer a choice between setting the LED indicators to the
Universe Color , a Fixed Color or DMX RGB . The Fixed Color option reveals an extra menu
item letting you pick which color to use, while the DMX RGB option reveals an extra
menu item letting you determine the DMX address.
By default, the LED indicators will slowly blink if there is no DMX. When a port is ‘taken
over’ with the dmXLAN soft
ware through an external device, the LED indicator of the
port will start to rapidly blink.
Once you have determined all of the options of your DMX setup, choose
Save and Exit to
store them and the selected port range will be ready to go with the chosen settings.
Setting up individual DMX ports
By selecting the menu options DMX Port 1 through DMX Port 8 , each DMX port can be
set up individually and specifically. In the port menu, first select the Port Mode . Each
port can be set to either Disabled , Input , Output or LedString .
When all the port setup options are set to your liking, choose Save and Exit at the
bottom of the port setup menu to store the settings for this DMX port.
