DMX Level Data
When a streaming sACN (sACN) patch exists for local DMX ports, additional patch
information is displayed beneath each port. For DMX inputs this patch information pertains
to sACN output, and for DMX outputs this patch information pertains to sACN input.
• When a streaming sACN patch is shown as “Universe/1st used address”. This indicates
a 1-to-1 patch between the DMX port and the sACN universe for all 512 addresses.
• The " " character is shown when a port has a sACN patch but is not a 1-to-1 patch. In
this instance, the first sACN universe /address used for that port is listed for the lowest
address of that sACN universe.
N o t e : The “About Menu” is provided for you to view information only. There are no
editing tools or menu lists available.
