Artnet-DMX-8 Artnet-DMX Converter
One IP manage 1 Subnet and 4 Universe addresses, that is one IP manage 4 output ports
(see the below table)
The calculation method of DMX group address: Group address=Subnet*16 + Universe:
is Address=2*16+8=40
For example: Subnet for Node 1 is 2, Outlet: Univ for 2 is 8, then Outlet: the group address of 2
IP Subnet(0~15) Universe(0~15)
Remark: Two IP address can not be set to the same value to avoid the controller is not working properly
caused by IP conflict.
