14.1.2 Setting up DMX outputs

The console has 64 DMX output lines (up to 12 on the console itself,

with further lines available using networked DMX processing nodes).

The Titan One dongle is limited to one DMX line. The lines may be

routed to physical DMX sockets or to network nodes.

Section

12.4.1 on page 205 tells you how to set up this routing, and

an example is given in section

14.1.4 on the next page.

14.1.3 A simple Art-Net system

There are various different systems for sending lighting control

information over a network. One of the most widely supported is Art-

Net.

Art-Net is not specific to one range of products, and is recognised and

implemented by a growing number of manufacturers. Many products

(such as Dimmers and Moving lights) can accept the Art-Net signal

directly, so there is no need to convert the signal to DMX. Most

people will, however, need to output DMX to their equipment and this

can be done using an Art-Net to DMX converter.

In the following diagram, an Art-Net compliant Console (such as a

Titan console) is connected via a network hub to an Art-Net

compatible dimmer and 2 DMX conversion boxes.

Once the system is connected together, the different outputs (or

Nodes) can be configured.

• The dimmer is given the start address of 200

• The 1st DMX box is set to universe 1 and universe 2

• The 2nd DMX box is also set to universe 1 and universe 2

The console is then used to set the DMX lines to the Art-Net nodes.

It is important to remember:

• Each Art-Net to DMX box (or compatible Dimmer, or compatible

moving light) is a device,
