The Live Art-Net section will allow the user to send any in-
coming valid Art-Net data straight to the pixel strips whilst
the pro manager is running and a USB cable is connected.
Please select the matching start universe and make sure
the Art-net data is being sent to your computer IP address
or broadcasted.
PRO-Manager will show the mapping from universe to sec-
tions on each output, based on your selections.
Closing or changing the Send window, will stop Art-Net to
Pixie send, PRO-Manager only sends to Pixie while on this
page.
Finally, data can be sent to any particular pixel by using
the channel faders which allow you to adjust the intensity
of any desired LED on the strip.
“
Standalone” Tab
Standalone mode allows you to record (and playback)
shows via Art-Net input to PIXIE memory. The duration of
the recording depends on the configuration selected be-
fore recording. The recorder is smart enough to only rec-
ord changes in the frames, so as to accommodate as
many frames as possible.
The recording trigger feature will let you select a channel in
your show to start/stop the recording when it is greater than
a selected value. Once the configuration is all set, you can click
on “Record Art-Net” button to start recording the show.
The recording is saved to a file, and is only transferred to the
memory when recording is stopped by using the “Stop Re-
cording” button or driving the trigger channel to the right
value. Whilst recording, live data is sent to the strips, so you
can decide when to stop.
The recording can now be transferred to memory using “Write
to Memory” button and the upload to memory progress is
shown as it happens.
Once the show is uploaded to memory successfully, the page
is automatically refreshed to allow show control on the rec-
orded show.
The show can now be played and stopped using the controls
on this page. These controls will only be available, if there is a
show stored in memory.
You can also export and import recorded shows using the “Ex-
port Show to File” or “Import Show to PIXIE Driver” buttons.
