Set up an Art-Net compatible IP address/subnet mask in Windows for your network card. In this example, we are using the network address 10.0.0.39 for the PC on which MADRIX will run (being controlled remotely) and the network address 10.0.0.23 for the console which should send the data to MADRIX. The subnet mask is 255.0.0.0 on both devices.

2.

Start MADRIX and go to Preferences > Options..., select the Devices Network tab, go to the section Capture - CITP and activate Enable Server

Click OK
MADRIX now runs as CITP server.

Note: If you have more than one active network card, you need to choose the right network interface. Below the Enable Server checkbox, click on the arrow on the right-hand side of the drop-down menu and select the correct network interface card.

Now, go to Preferences > Device Manager or press the F4 key and select the Art-Net tab.

Click on the checkbox Enable in the upper right corner to enable Art-Net.

Please make sure that the DMX Watcher is set to Input and DMX Universe 1.

If the console is configured correctly and if it sends DMX data, you should see it in the DMX Watcher

While still having selected the first list entry in the Device Manager, tab DMX Input, enable Remote in the upper right corner.

The Simple DMX protocol is configured as follows: CH01 chooses the Storage, while CH02 chooses the Storage Place with its MADRIX Effect, CH03 regulates the Fade Time of the Crossfader, and CH04 controls the Master Fader.

Note: The Simple protocol will only use and work at the left side of MADRIX.
