General Settings Explained
Node Name
Node name is used to identify the unit on the
network. Any meaningful name can be used.
DHCP
DHCP is enabled by default. When enabled, the
router on the network, which the device is
connected to, is expected to automatically provide
the IP address to the unit. If no DHCP router/server
is present on the network, the static IP address will
be used.
If the unit does not get an IP address via DHCP,
please connect the unit to a router/server via an
ethernet cable and restart the device. It will listen
for DHCP on start-up and wait for a few seconds,
before giving up.
Static IP Address Netmask and
Gateway are only used if DHCP is disabled or is
unavailable on the network.
Pixel Triton web-page will warn, if non-standard IP
address or netmask is used.
DMX Protocol
This setting allows the input DMX over Ethernet
protocol to be picked. Available options:
•
Art-Net
•
sACN
Notes:
For Art-Net, Net and Subnet can be specified and should
comply with Art-Net 3 protocol.
Output Settings
This setting specifies the LED protocol to be
outputted by the device. If one or more Triton
devices are daisy chained together, each can have
a different LED protocol if needed.
Pixel Mapping Options
Definition of Pixel
For the purpose of this section, pixel refers to a
single addressable unit of illumination controlled
by 3 DMX channels (RGB tape or dots) or 4 DMX
channels. (RGBW tape or dots)
Pixel Order
DMX Channels per Pixel
3 channel order e.g. RGB
3
4 channel order e.g. RGBW
4
Pixel Order
There are 30 different pixel order options. Ordering
controls how the DMX channels are mapped to the
LED pixel colour on each LED pixel. The ordering
selected here should match the order on the Pixel
Tape or Dots being used. The Pixel order selected,
will also determine the number of Pixels being
driven at the output.
The default ordering assumes that both the DMX
over Ethernet input and the led strip outputs are in
RGB order.
DMX Start Address
Selects DMX channel number, which controls the
first pixel. .
