Does CloudIO only work with Claypaky fixtures?
3.
How many fixtures per time I can connect to CloudIO?
4.
Is the solution also available on other devices, IPad, tablet, etc.?
5.
Is it possible to use CloudIO display to work on the Platform?
6.
Is it possible to use CloudIO without Internet Connection?
7.
Does CloudIO support Artnet?
2.
What about the encoders? Which is their function?
RDM compliant fixtures will be compatible; RDM basic parameters would be available with the CoudIO.
Unfortunately, we cannot guarantee the other brand compliance and that future firmware upgrades of other Brands’ Fixture
(that do not fulfil RDM standards) will make non-compatible what is today compatible (as we cannot influence other Brand
development).
The physical limits of DMX state that there can be a max. of 32 devices on a single cable. The cable can not be longer than 300
m and it should be wired in a daisy chain. You can connect 31 devices and we strongly recommend to put a DMX terminator
over 20 fixtures. The terminator a single 120 Ohm termination resistor to be fitted at the extreme end of the signal cable.
It is a web-based application and will run on the most common web-browsers on PC/MAC/Tablets.
CloudIO display is designed to setup and activate CloudIO Gateway, not to connect to the Cloud Platform.
The Cloud Platform can be accessed by an internet connected device with a web browser (e.g. Chrome)
CloudIO platform is an online platform, therefore it works only if CloudIO and the device that host the web browser are
connected online. CloudIO Box can be used offline to update Fixture firmwares previously downloaded on an USB stick.
CloudIO is equipped with an Artnet ready port, and it will be available soon.
CloudIO is a so called Edge Computing IoT Solution. The Encoders are intended to be used in the application where a low
latency is needed (e.g. real time control of a moving head). There are some additional features we will develop, E.g. an app for
an optimized set of test cues for the fixtures: an extremely simplified console app with a guided procedure to test all the fixture
functionalities. All cues will be available on the cloud and downloaded on CloudIO as soon as new fixture is available on the
market (reduced programming effort!)
