other DMX-compatible products with this product, you can control each individually with a single DMX
controller.
Art-Net™ Connection
Art-Net™ is an Ethernet protocol that uses TCP/IP which transfers a large amount of DMX512 data using
an Neutrik® etherCON® RJ45 connection over a large network. An Art-Net™ protocol document is
available from www.chauvetprofessional.com.
Art-Net™ designed by and copyright Artistic Licence Holdings Ltd.
sACN Connection
Also known as ANSI E1.31, Streaming-ACN is an Ethernet protocol that uses the layering and formatting
of Architecture for Control Networks to transport DMX512 data over IP or any other ACN compatible
network. ACN is maintained by the Professional Lighting and Sound Association (PLASA).
