multiple protocols and is configured using any web browser thank to the built-in
webpage.
- Plug and Play or Configured
operation
- 2 input, 2 output or 1 in 1
out ports

All you need is an "IN" box
at the Console, 1 (or more) "OUT" at the Fixture end and an Ethernet network in
between.
Modes
- Plug & Play: Just
unpack, power the DMXEtherGate, set the universe number (1 to 6) using the dip
switches, Plug in the Ethernet and DMX and that's it !

webbrowser, log into the DMXEthergate by typing it's IP address in the address
bar. This mode will let you use all the power of the DMXEtherGate engine, you
will have access to all the features such as: 256 universes, Remote
configuration, Node-Universe Binding ...
Operation (Plug &Play
mode)
The DMXEtherGate IN receives
DMX512 from the lighting controller, the high speed engine processes the DMX for
transmission over ethernet. The packet is then sent using a UDP/IP scheme with a
broadcast IP and MAC address. Every node on the same network will receive that
packet. The output node will then un pack the DMX data and update it's internal
buffers.
Hardware
Like most of our
products, the DMXEtherGate hardware fits into a robust metal 9.5 inch 1 Unit
rack, 2 Can be mounted side by side to form a standard 19 inch rack, The
DMXEtherGate has 4 connectors: DMX512 IN or OUT depending on the model, Ethercon
RJ45 and IEC power connector. The DMXEtherGate has an internal mains power
supply that will accept any input voltage from 96 to 264V AC Both nodes are
CE and FCC approved.
