Introduction - Cameo XNODE 4 User Manual

INTRODUCTION

XNODE 4 is a user-friendly Art-Net and sACN to DMX converter supporting the distribution of four universes of DMX via four individually opti-
cally isolated DMX ports, each of which is independently configurable as an input or output. Since most major lighting consoles are capable
1
of transmitting Art-Net data, the XNODE 4 is all you need to take advantage of your console's networking capability, allowing you to transmit
a vast number of universes over one single network cable. In some cases, users may profit from already existing networking infrastructure.
Furthermore, the XNODE 4 is also perfectly suited to send DMX data to your fixtures from a computer or even from a mobile device. Many
light controller programs for PC or Mac support Art-Net output natively and with the help of XNODE 4's DHCP capability, you can even let
your workplace network infrastructure do the network configuration of your XNODE 4 automatically for you.
With its 128x64 pixels OLED display however, configuring the network and setting up your Art-Net or sACN preferences manually is no
trouble at all and helpful status information is always at hand.
