The LumiNode series is a new range of network converter, inheriting more than a decade of experience
from the Luminex Ethernet-DMX converter design and manufactoring.
In the past, most of the people were designing their system according to the number of universes and DMX
ports they would need on their lighting control system.
But today, with the ever-increasing number of lighting-controlled devices tted with an Ethernet port, there
is a need for more processing power and data handling exibility. This is where the LumiNode series steps
in.
Instead of assigning universes to a port, the user can now select any incoming data, handle it the way they
need, and send it back to the network, or to a DMX port. All the data handling will be powered by process
engines.
A process engine is an entity within the LumiNode rmware, accepting up to four inputs, and which can
send it to up to four dierent outputs. Additionally, remote interaction and control can be applied to the
process engine, via specic control channels.
