The Home Screen shows the IP address of the node and, depending on the firmware version and configuration of the 
node, also the Art-Net net and the Art-Net sub-net of the node or the Art-Net name (see section Name on page 14)

The Art-Net name is displayed if the device has firmware version 1.01 or later and the Art-Net version of the device is 
set to Art-Net 4 (see Art-Net Version on page 13)

The numbers at the bottom of the screen display the 4-bit Art-Net universe of each each output port running in Art-
Net mode if independent Art-Net universes are disabled (see Independent Universes on page 14) or if the Art-Net 
version of the node is set to Art-Net 3 if the node is running firmware version 1.01 or later. 

If the Art-Net version of the node is set to Art-Net 4 (available with firmware versions 1.01 and newer) or if 
independent Art-Net universes are enabled (applicable to devices with firmware version 1.00 and older), Art-Net net 
and Art-Net sub-net are not displayed and the numbers at the bottom of the screen that correspond to a port 
running in Art-Net mode are values in the range of 0 to 32767. This numbe

r fully identyfies a port’s universe and is 

also referred to as the port address. For more information on the addressing of Art-Net ports, see section 
Representations of Art-Net Port Addresses in the appendix. 

For each port running in sACN mode, the 16-bit sACN universe, a number in the range of 1 to 63999, is displayed at 
the bottom of the screen. The left most number corrseponds to the universe of port 1. 

The universe number of an input port is surrounded by a rounded corner box. A filled box around the universe 
number of an input port indicates the presence of a valid DMX signal. 

Port Screen 

The Port Screen shows information about the selected port. It can be reached by pressing the port button (button [1] 

 button [4], see page 7) or by navigating to 

Home > Menu > Ports > Port X > Universe

. There are three variations of 

the Port Screen, depending on selected protocol and Art-Net version. 

 

 

 

Art-Net 4 

sACN 

Art-Net 3 

This screen can be closed by pressing [Cancel] or [OK]. It will disappear by itself after 20 seconds. When turning the 
encoder, universe edit mode is activated. For more information about universe numbering and editing, see section 
Universe on page 16. 

Depending on the port mode, the label on the top left will show if the selected port is configured as an input or as an 
output. A disabled port just shows the port number and a 

P

ort Off” 

label. 

A double tap on the port button will open a reduced port settings menu. This allows fast changes to port specific 
settings. See section Port Settings for more information

.

 

Status Indication 

There are several indicators and labels on the Port Screen to show the current operating mode and the state of the 
selected port. The following status labels displayed on the upper left of the Port Screen show the DMX signal status:
