Merging Policies :
The Ethernet-DMX8 MkII firmware offers enhanced merging policies that
fits to all kind of setup, even the most complex one!
4 available merging policies can be applied on your DMX network, in 2
main setup categories :
Local merging : 2 different DMX streams are merged on the same
physical device (Node). The merging policy will be mainly set on Inputs.
IP Merging : This special feature allows you to merge up to 4 different Art-
Net™ or sACN streams through the network. The merging policy will be
mainly applied on the Output, except for IP backup.
Available policies :
HTP : Highest Take Precedence; Commonly used to merge dimmer
channels. Up to 4 Art-Net™ or sACN sources can be merged.
LTP : Latest Take Precedence; Better suited when using moving lights.
Up to 4 Art-Net™ or sACN sources can be merged.
Backup : Can be used either on input or output. When used on input,
this policy allows you to add a backup DMX console on the second
input. When used on a custom output, the policy allows you to add a
backup Art-Net™ or sACN source on the network.
Custom : This is the most complete and efficient policy. This mode
offers you to choose what policy to apply for each channel of each
universe, and also to create a complete custom soft patch. By more,
the merging policy can be remotely triggered by DMX. Up to 2 DMX or
Art-Net™ or sACN sources can merged thanks to that policy.
The available policies differs if you use either inputs or outputs :
