Port information:
Information of all 16 DMX ports, labeled as A; B; C; etc.
If using the Art-Net protocol, the universes start from universe 0.
When using sACN, there is no universe 0 so universe numbering begins with universe 1.
LED Indicators
The ProPlex IQ 1616 2x has RGBW activity LEDs at each output port:
•
DMX activity LED is RED: There is no DMX signal from network incoming.
•
DMX activity LED is ORANGE (full power): The port is configured as DMX output and DMX signal is
active.
•
DMX activity LED is ORANGE (dim): The port is configured as DMX output and there is no active
DMX signal.
•
DMX activity LED is BLUE (full power): The port is configured as DMX input and DMX signal is
active.
•
DMX activity LED is BLUE (dim): The port is configured as DMX input and there is no active DMX
signal.
•
DMX activity LED is GREEN (intermittent): The port has active RDM packets.
Merging
What happens with more than one source of DMX, Art-Net or Streaming ACN?
The IQ series of nodes can merge multiple instance of the same universe number coming from multiple
sources.
The IQ Two 1616 2x will automatically merge HTP universes coming from multiple sources that have the
same priority. Art-Net sources, by default have the same priority so they will be merged HTP unless Easy
Priority is set to ON. Streaming ACN has priority built into the protocol by default. If the priority of two or
more sources is the same, HTP merging will occur unless Easy Priority is set to ON. DMX inputs have a
"Port Priority" setting which can assign priority to DMX ports in INPUT mode. If two or more ports have the
same INPUT priority, HTP merging will occur.
in this case, when there is a network, it shows the network type,
