DMX network setup
Titan will control up to 64 universes of DMX (some consoles have a lower system limit). You patch fixtures onto one of the DMX Lines which may be routed to the XLR sockets on the console or to Art-Net or sACN universes over Ethernet. The output universes/lines may have any universe number 1 - 9999 to match your rig but you can't have more in total than the system limit.
The console itself can't process and output all 64 universes. To control outputs above the processing limit, you need to add one or more TNP (TitanNet Processors) to the system to handle the additional processing needed.
- See DMX Settings for details of system limits and processing limit for each console.
On consoles/devices with limited outputs, all universes are still patchable and programmable but only the lowest numbered will be output. You cannot increase the number of universes by connecting multiple devices (e.g. 2x T1 will still output one universe).
Multiple consoles can be linked by Ethernet to provide a multi-user system, or to provide automatic backup.
Go to the System menu (Avo + Disk), press DMX Settings.
Select a Node on the left (where the DMX is going to). On the right, select the DMX line it will be fed by. The small buttons set properties for Nodes/Lines. See DMX Settings.
To change the IP address of the console, press Network Settings on the System menu (see Network Settings).
To change User Settings which let you personalise how the console works, hold down Avo and select User Settings.
You can attach sACN inputs to a line to read in control data from another console. See Using DMX/sACN Input.
