4.How to control Unit with ArtNet
1. Setting IP Address, choose Manual set to manual input IP address, better choose
ON IP2 or ON IP10 auto set.
2. IP Mask , input 255.0.0.0
3. Universe choose OFF or 1
4. Source select , input signal selection, there are three options:
DMX only → input signal is DMX
Art-Net → input Art-Net signal
DMX & Art-Net → Simultaneous input DMX & Art-Net signal
Notice:
 If Select DMX only or Art-Net, Channels mode only can choose Standard or
Shape RGB or Shape RGBW. Then only have DMX or Art-Net signal separately
control Pan/Tilt, Dimmer and RGBW, etc.
 If select DMX & ArtNet , means simultaneously controlled by DMX and Art-Net, and
Art-Net only control RGBW Channels, DMX control others channels, meantime, CH
MODE only can choose DMX & Artnet RGB or DMX & Net RGBW.
For example,if now choose DMX & Artnet RGB CH Mode, then CH 1 - CH13 are
controlled by DMX, RGB matrix controlled by Art-Net.
