Example Configurations

The Net-X is extremely versatile, with DMX source capabilities and ethernet source
capabilities which can be combined so that the Net-X is simultaneously acting as a DMX
splitter, an ethernet-to-DMX adapter, and an ethernet node.
Example Configuration 1: Art-Net™ and DMX Sources
This example demonstrates one way to configure the Net-X to merge two Art-Net™ signals
with HTP, merge two DMX signals with LTP, and output both signals and another Art-Net™
signal to several separate DMX Out ports. The numbers used in this example are for
demonstrative purposes, and are only one of thousands of possible configurations.
First configure two Art-Net™ controllers to output signals on Net 0, Subnet 0, Universe 1, and
a third Art-Net™ controller to output a signal on Net 0, Subnet 0, Universe 2. Then do the
following:
1. Set the ethernet protocol for the Net-X to ArtNet. (See Ethernet Configuration.)
2. Set the Net setting to 0. (See Configuring Art-Net™ Net Setting.)
3. Set the Subnet address to 0. (See Art-Net™ Subnet Address.)
4. Set IP Address #1 to 2.255.255.001, and IP Address #2 to 2.255.255.002.
(See Configuring IP Addresses.)
5. Set the Net Mode to HTP, and the DMX Mode to LTP. (See Signal Merging.)
6. Set Universe #1 and #2 to 1, and Universe #5, #6, and #7 to 2.
(See Art-Net™ Universes.)
7. Set DMX Output #1, #2, #5, #6, and #7 to ArtNet Input, DMX Output #3 and #4 to
DMX #1 Input, and DMX Output #8 to Without Input. (See Configuring DMX Outputs.)
8. Plug in all input cables and output cables as shown in the Example 1 Diagram.
