Artnet-DMX converter is the Ethernet Control System based on the Artnet protocol, used to convert the Artnet
network data package into DMX512 data, adopting high-speed ARM processor, stable and reliable working.
Following Artnet standard protocol, it supports RJ45 network interface and standard DMX512 output interface.
It is compatible with all the effects lighting control software which support Artnet protocol, widely used in the
LED dot matrix and the stage lighting control network in needing lots of DMX512 data, especially for TV station
recorded scene, stage performances, entertainment and so on.
2.1 Based on Artnet protocol network data communication, accept network DMX data;
2.2 IP address is bound to Subnet, no need to reset, plug and play.
2.3 Manage Artnet on broadcast mode or unicast mode.
2.4 Output 2 group DMX512 data.
2.5 Firmware can be updated via the network.
2.6 Compatible with the light software based on Artnet Protocol, control stage lighting and LED lighting
simultaneously.
2.7 Connect up to 256 DMX Universes to one network.
2.8 10BaseT Ethernet Port.
2.9 Data activity indicators
2.10 Configurable DMX output refresh rates.

0
Value 1 2 345678 9 10 11 12 13 14 150
Calculating method: Group address= Subnet×16 + Universe, IP Address=2.xx.xx.Group Address,
MAC Address=44-4d-58-2d-31-Group Address (xx is the random number generated by the factory)
For example: Subnet: 2, Universe: B, Group Address=2×16 + 11 = 43, so the DMX output
group address is 43, Corresponding IP address is 2.xx.xx.43, MAC address is 44-4d-58-2d-31-43.
