What is the difference between Art-Net and sACN?
Art-Net is capable of broadcast and unicast, while sACN is capable of unicast and multicast.
What is Art-Net to DMX?
Art-Net is a communication lighting protocol for transmitting DMX and RDM signals over Ethernet. With 2 universes of bi-directional eDMX to DMX conversion with ArtRDM support, power over ethernet (PoE) or flexible 7-24v DC input, the DIN Ethergate allows for fast deployment of DMX systems.
Is ArtNET the same as DMX?
ArtNET is the perfect way to send and receive many DMX universes or to connect multiple lighting consoles together. Since it uses the network to transmit and receive data, no special DMX cable and converter are needed. You only need those when you want to send actual DMX values to your lighting fixtures.
What is grandMA2?
The grandMA2 light is the perfect tool to control all kinds of lighting genres like conventionals, moving lights, LEDs, video and media. It supplies an intuitive and fast control of all connected fixtures and channels.
Is Art-Net TCP or UDP?
Art-Net makes use of the TCP/IP protocol called UDP or User Datagram Protocol. UDP is in fact used by the bulk of streaming protocols including ShowNet and E1.
Is Art-Net the same as DMX?
How much bandwidth does Art-Net use?
Network traffic out of the media server is a pretty constant 25 – 30Mbit/s although it’ll get up to 80Mb/s with the Artistic License bandwidth checker program running flat out.
How do I set up the DMX protocol on the grandMA2?
The menu can be opened by pressing the Setup key followed by a tap on the Network Protocols button. The grandMA2 supports the following network DMX protocols, each having their own tab in the Network Protocols view:
How do I change the maximum number of receivers for Art-Net?
The default limitation of 5 individual receivers can be changed to a maximum of 10. This can only be done using the command line configuration and by using the “MaxUnicast” property. Art-Net is transmitted from Ethernet connector number 2.
How do I make an art-net IP address?
Art-Net is transmitted from Ethernet connector number 2. If you use a onPC, then you do not need to make a valid Art-Net IP address. The software will create one and use it.
What is externstart and TTL in grandMA2?
For example grandMA2 universe number 10 should be transmitted as Shownet universe 5, then the ExternStart should be 5 and LocalStart is 10. TTL (Time To Live) – Specifies the number of routers (hops) that multicast traffic is permitted to pass through before expiring on the network.
