Getting started

Home > Getting started
In order get started quickly or if you're new to using the DiGiDot C4, we recommend using the
Getting Started wizard from the Home menu. This wizard will guide you through all essential steps
to get the DiGidot C4 up and running.
This wizard goes through following steps:
1. Device and network settings
2. Device positioning (in case of multiple devices)
3. Input/Output (IO) configuration
4. Security (Trigger security settings can be changed in the 'HTTP, UDP and OSC' sub menu on the
'Triggers' page)
Open the user interface and go to the 'Getting started' wizard.
Follow the instructions carefully and complete the wizard in order to get your system up and
running quickly. In case you need more information about a certain subject, you can open the
information windows by clicking the 'ℹ' icons.
When the Getting started wizard has been completed correctly, your DiGidot C4 controller is ready
to use.

Scenes (DiGidot C4 Extended only)

A scene is a generated or recorded effect that can be played and triggered. This page contains an
overview of all scenes. Click on the scenes to start or stop playing.

playing a scene the player bar will appear. The player bar will show the current selected scene.

hue and brightness of a scene.

Create scenes (DiGidot C4 Extended only)

There are two ways to create a scene in the DiGidot C4 interface.

Record scene

Home > Create scenes
The record button will become active when an incoming signal is detected. The FPS (frame per
second) monitor on the record page will indicate if the incoming signal is good for recording. By
clicking the FPS monitor it will show the incoming signal for each DiGidot C4 device. This can help to
check which device is getting a low FPS signal. To improve the incoming signal, try to set the
software that is sending the signal to a higher output FPS rate. We recommend sending Art-Net or
sACN at 60 FPS.
To start recording, click the red record button on the underside of the page. A timer starts running
until the record/stop button is clicked again.
