Output Settings - Cameo XNODE 8 Manuel D'utilisation

SACN
Ports that are running in sACN mode display the sACN universe number and status indicators.
The sACN universe number may be in the range of 1 – 63999. While the universe (large number at the bottom) is being edited but has not
yet been stored, a slowly blinking cursor is shown below the currently editable digit. Use the encoder to increase or decrease that digit.
Push the port button corresponding to the port that is being edited to change the digit that is currently editable.
If an input port is configured for sACN, data is transmitted to the sACN multicast IP address of the respective universe (e.g. 239.255.0.1 for
universe 1).
MODE
Under Mode, a selection list is presented to you with the following options:
 Output: The port outputs data received from the network.
 Input : The port is configured as DMX input and sends data to the network.
1
 Off: The port is turned off.
A bullet point is shown next to the currently active setting. Use the encoder wheel to select the desired setting and push [OK] to apply the setting.
When setting multiple inputs to the same universe, the node will output the data depending on the used protocol:
 Art-Net: Only one port will send data to the network, because Art-Net streams are identified by the IP address.
 sACN: All inputs can send data to the network, because sACN identifies every stream with an own ID.
PROTOCOL
Under Protocol, you can choose between the following two options:
 Art-Net: The port is using the Art-Net protocol for either input or output mode.
 sACN: The port is using the sACN protocol for either input or output mode.
A bullet point is shown next to the currently active setting. Use the encoder wheel to select the desired setting and push [OK] to apply the setting.

OUTPUT SETTINGS

DMX OUTPUT MODE
The DMX Output Mode menu allows for choosing the DMX timing. This menu item has been introduced with firmware version 0.95. Curren-
tly the following choices are available:
 Max. Frame Rate (44 Hz)
 Relaxed (30 Hz)
When Max. Frame Rate is selected, the DMX output signal has the following properties:
 Refresh rate: Ca. 44 Hz when 512 channels are being sent, depending on the amount of RDM requests sent from the controller and
further reduced during RDM discovery.
 Break length: Ca. 180 μS.
 Mark after break: Ca. 40 μS.
The DMX Output Mode Relaxed has the following behavior:
 Refresh rate: Ca. 30 Hz when 512 channels are being sent, depending on the amount of RDM requests sent from the controller and
further reduced during RDM discovery.
 Break length: Ca. 300 μS.
 Mark after break: Ca. 80 μS.
 A small delay of about 20 μS is inserted between slots to reduce the update rate. This may reduce problems such as flickering
when legacy fixtures are in use.
