default setting is to allow addresses 1 through 65536.

Interface Protocols

MultiConsole

Clicking in the enable box will allow for multiconsole communication on the selected port. For
Element, this is used to allow mirror mode.

Network Type
This setting adjusts the timeout period before a backup device will take control from the master.

Standard - After five seconds of no response from the master, the backup will assume the

master has disconnected and will then take control.

Engineered - After 1.6 seconds of no response from the master, the backup will assume the

master has disconnected and will then take control.

Enable Sensor/ FDX3000 Feedback

Clicking in the enable box will allow Element to receive feedback over the network from a CEM+, a
CEM3, or FDX3000. This option is “Enabled” by default.

See “About Address” on page 183.

Enable RDM

Clicking in the enable box will allow Element to perform RDM functionality including device
discovery. See

{Patch} Display and Settings, page 67

and

About Address, page 183

.

Enable FDX2000 Feedback

Clicking in the enable box will allow Element to receive FDX2000 dimmer feedback over the
network.

Broadcast Type

Directed Broadcast - Broadcast packets are directed to a subnet based on the IP address

and subnet mask of the sender.

Limited Broadcast - The limited broadcast address is 255.255.255.255. It is limited because

routers will never forward datagrams with that destination address. This means that
datagrams with the limited broadcast address are confined to the particular network segment
on which they originate.

Enable WiFi RFR

Select to allow WiFi RFRs, like the iRFR or aRFR, to connect to Element. For additional
information, including setup, please visit the
