ArtNet(sACN)->DMX, DMX->ArtNet(sACN), 1IN->3OUT.
Touch the Work Mode you would like to select it. Once set,
close the System configuration window to confirm and save
the setting.
ArtNet(sACN)->DMX: receives ArtNet (sACN) and sends
out DMX, when the device works under this mode, the
sACN protocol can work in singlecast, multicast, broadcast
mode.
DMX->ArtNet(sACN): receives DMX and sends out ArtNet
1IN->3OUT: DMX splitter mode, 1 DMX In port (Only the DMX Port 1 can work as DMX In), 3 DMX Out ports.
SDDP(Control4): this device supports Control4’s SDDP Simple Device Discovery Protocol, once this function is turned
on, this device can be integrated into and controlled through Control4 SDDP platform, for detailed operations, please
refer to the SDDP operation manual.

90Sec: the backlight will stay on for 90 seconds then turn off
(sACN) (Only the DMX Port 1 can work as DMX In), when the device works under this mode, sACN protocol can only
work in multicast mode, data packet of each port will be sent to a designated multicast address, the multicast address
range is from 239.255.0.0 to 239.255.255.255.

The 4th tab on System configuration window is
“MergeMode”, which is to set DMX Merge.
Set MergeMode
This device is capable of merging two signals from different
IP addresses of the same protocol into one using HTP
(Highest Takes Precedence), or LTP (Latest Takes
Precedence) logic. The MergeMode can be set for 4 DMX
ports separately. System will merge the data from two IP
addresses and send to corresponding DMX port according
to the set merge mode if two signals from two IP addresses
are detected. If there are no data from two different IP
addresses are detected any longer within 3 seconds,
system will quit MergeMode.
Touch to select a MergeMode you would like from the 2
available settings: HTP and LTP for each DMX port
separately. Factory default setting is HTP. Once set, close
the System configuration window to confirm and save the
setting.
