DMX Setup
To create the desired setup, navigate to Edit -> Project Settings and open the DMX Tab.
In this window, you first have to select one of the available Network interface controllers (NICs). In most cases, you should avoid choosing 127.0.0.1 (localhost).
Good to know: you can change this property only when DMX In and Out are disabled.
In the Art-Net section, you can determine the transmission type which will be used with Art-Net protocol:
- Unicast (recommended): this is one-to-one transmission, so it is the most efficient.
- Broadcast: in this transmission type, the messages are broadcast all over the network.
In the sACN section, you can determine the transmission type which will be used with sACN protocol:
- Unicast: one-to-one transmission.
- Multicast (recommended): one-to-many transmission that is very efficient.
- Broadcast: one-to-many transmission.
Broadcast transmission type should be, if possible, avoided as it can slow down the network.
