Eos Configuration Utility 459
FDX2000 Feedback
Clicking in the enable box will allow your console to receive FDX2000 dimmer feedback over the net-
work.
Broadcast Type
Directed Broadcast - Broadcast packets are directed to a subnet based on the IP address and
subnet mask of the sender.
Limited Broadcast - The limited broadcast address is 255.255.255.255. It is limited because
routers will never forward datagrams with that destination address. This means that data-
grams with the limited broadcast address are confined to the particular network segment on
which they originate.
WiFi Remote
Select to allow WiFi RFRs, like the iRFR or aRFR, to connect to Ion.
UDP and OSC Strings
Clicking in the enable box will allow the selected port to send UDP and OSC strings.
OSC
Select the OSC TCP mode. By default, OSC 1.0 is selected.
Note: Check the documentation for the OSC device you wish to use over a TCP con-
nection to see which mode it supports.
OSC 1.0 (packet-length headers)
OSC 1.1 (SLIP)
DHCP Service
Note: All settings in this section require a reboot of the desk before they will take effect.
If this section is grayed out, or you are unable to change any settings, you don’t have Net3 Services
installed on your desk. Net3 Services are installed by the installer for ETC's Gateway Configuration
Editor (GCE) software. GCE is available for download from the ETCwebsite.
Ion can provide a DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) address server. DHCP is a TCP/IP pro-
tocol that dynamically assigns an IP address to a network device when it requests one.
This is a small and simple DHCP server that is intended to be used on non-routed networks. It will not
serve IP addresses across a router.
CAUTION: There should only be a single DHCP server active on a network. It is possible to
start more than one DHCP server on a single network (nothing is built-in to DHCP servers to
prevent this from happening). If this occurs, it will result in unstable conditions and possibly
result in network communications failures.
