M2B processors can be identified by a serial number that starts with 002xxx.
Configuring the processor for Art-Net control
1) Connect an Art-Net source to the Net, Net 1 or Net 2 port on the processor’s back panel
(either directly or via switch).
2) Go to the Live Control tab and select Art-Net from the Control Protocol drop down menu.
3) Ensure that the processor is in an Art-Net compliant IP Address and Subnet. This can be
changed in the Setting – Processor menu. Please see the"Chapter 9 - Live Control" on
page80 for more details.
4) Enter a Start Address and universe for the processor. The Start Address will correspond
with the DMX address of the first parameter in the selected Control Profile and the universe
will determine which Art-Net universe that the processor will listen to.
5) Enable Live Control by checking the box Enable Controls in the Live Control Tab or clicking
the Live Control button in the Right Button menu.
If the Art-Net is detected, the Live Control button will light up green to indicate that a source
of Live Control has been detected and that Live Control is enabled.
Note: - M2B processors are fitted with a pair of control Ethernet ports, marked Net 1 and Net
2, which share the IP address set in the Settings – Processor menu. This is helpful when you
wish to connect a Remote PC or laptop to one port (For local control) and still have an Art-Net
input to the processor on the second port. When connecting multiple processors to a single
DMX over Ethernet source it is recommended to manage signal distribution with switches
rather than using the second port as a thru port. M2B processors can be identified by a serial
number that starts with 002xxx.
