In addition, specialized utility software allows advanced users to assign custom MAC address to the Ethernet interface of the device and restore default settings of the device. ArtGate series is powered by AC ~90-250 V, 50/60 Hz, or from Ethernet using the Power- over-Ethernet technology (depends on modification).
Tracking protocols support ArtGate devices can receive the data from tracking servers via specialised protocols (RTTrPL, etc.) and merge them into output DMX512 streams. For successful merging, universe number in track- ing control messges must be the same as ArtNet or sACN universe number which is set on affected ports.
