PRODUCT OVERVIEW The Preset Ten Ethernet (PRE10ETHER-A) wall station plays back snapshots of sACN (E1.31) on four universes. The simple front interface allows the user to control 2,048 individual slots with the push of a button. Static snapshots from any sACN capable console record into the ten presets.
PRE10ETHER-A. A simple system may consist of a single console, PRE10ETHER-A, and receiving device. A more complex system may have PRE10ETHER-A stations at multiple locations in a building. Data transport between each sACN capable device takes place using standard Ethernet hardware that supports multicast traffic.
REAR INTERFACE The PRE10ETHER-A has a set of rear mounted controls that are accessed during initial commissioning of the wall station. The rear interface changes network settings, lockouts and button behavior. Once setup is complete, this interface remains facing into the two gang wall box and is not accessed by users changing presets on the front interface.
Turns Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) On or Off. DHCP servers, such as a router, will issue an IPv4 address to the PRE10ETHER-A when connected on the same Local Area Network. With a DHCP address issued, the PRE10ETHER-A will not be able to alter its own IPv4 address.
RADIO: Button presses fade between presets, one preset is active at a time. POPO: Piles on presets allowing more than one on at a time. In this pile-on mode, the PRE10ETHER-A operates in a Highest Takes Precedence (HTP) fashion, outputting the highest value per slot of the active presets.
FRONT INTERFACE The PRE10ETHER-A has a front interface where the majority of user interaction takes place. The front interface has buttons and LEDs involving playback, recording, and fade time. Using the front interface, a user can select an active preset or determine a lockout condition.
RECORDING PRESETS In order to record preset levels, the PRE10ETHER-A must be connected to an sACN source. When less than 2,048 slot levels are received, a level of 0% will be stored for all slots above those received.

3. Using a small blunt object (e.g. paper clip), momentarily depress the TIME SETTING MODE recessed button located on the bottom most left of the PRE10ETHER-A. The green LED indicator of the preset you selected to edit and the yellow time LED above the recessed button that was just depressed will now flash.
