DMX Universes
The console provides for a maximum of 702 universes (labeled A thru ZZ), which are assigned to DMX buses or
"hosts" (hardware outputs within the system). This means that the actual amount of buses available will depend on
your system setup.
To define DMX512 universes:
Step
1. At Setup menu, select DMX Setup.
Step
2. For each required universe, do the following:
a.
Press Edit button to enable window editing.
b.
At DMX Universe list, select universe.
c.
At DMX Host drop-down menu, select Node DMX output as sACN or ArtNet
(see below).
d.
Enter Node address.
e.
Click Set to enter settings and advance to next line.
* For instructions on using DMX diagnostics, refer to
Streaming ACN
Each PRG Node Plus output port can be configured to send ANSI E1.31 Streaming ACN (sACN) format packets over
the Ethernet port instead of Art-Net packets. This selection is made by setting the DMX Out option to "sACN" and
clicking the Set button. (The default output type is Art-Net.)
Note: E1.31 does not allow universe 0, so that universe cannot be used with sACN.
