Signal Connection
The Converter receives signal through one of the 2 Ethernet ports and 1 DMX In port. It send signal out through the other
Ethernet port and 4 DMX Out ports.
Art-Net™ Connection
Art-Net™ is an Ethernet protocol that uses TCP/IP to transfer a large amount of DMX512 data using an Ethernet port
RJ45 connection over a large network. Art-Net™ designed by and copyright Artistic Licence Holdings Ltd.
Application
1) When the Work Mode is configured as ArtNet->DMX
3) When the Work Mode is configured as 1IN->3OUT (DMX splitter)

Notes: 1) The Ethernet ports are through ports, each port can be either an input or an output port.
2) The 4 DMX ports can be all out ports, only the Port 1 can be configured as DMX In port.
3) The device has Ethernet switch capability and the 2 Ethernet ports are through ports that allow daisy
chaining of the devices.
Installation Guide
When designing a control system that uses the Converter, consider the following:
The Art-Net™ DMX Bidirectional Converter is used as a part of a control system for operating various lighting and multi-
media products. The physical and digital construction of the control network is determined by the location and signal
needs of the products.
Ÿ Placing the Converter so the LCD screen and ports can be accessed.
Ÿ Running the cables so there is no tension or pull on the cables or plugs.
Ÿ Planning a large control system carefully before configuring the components so IP address, DMX address, and other
identifiers are not duplicated.
Operation
LCD Operation
The Converter is configured through the 3.5 inch large LCD screen using a touch control pen. Once it is properly
configured it operates without user intervention.
The Converter can be used as an Art-Net™ node, in which case the Art-Net™ universes must be assigned to the DMX
Out ports, and the Net, IP address settings must be configured.
The Converter can be used as a DMX splitter, in which case the DMX In port must be assigned to one of the DMX Out
ports, but the Net, Subnet, IP address settings may not need configuration.
