Sending or receiving data. > The Ethernet port works. |
The device features 2 separate Ethernet network ports. Either one is fully functionally for IN and OUT and can be used for the data connection without using a separate network switch or router.
Please note:
▪It is recommended to connect a maximum of 8 units after one another in a row.
▪It is important to set up the correct network universe where each device should send data to.
▪If all devices should send to the same universe, it is important to set up the correct DMX channels for each port and device.
▪ORION always sends data on the configured universe and channels unless the ports are deactivated.
Make sure that several devices do not send data on the same DMX channels!
▪Make sure to receive data in unicast mode in your receiver.
