Notes About Pathway Ssacn - pathway VIA PWVIA RM P12 User Manual

When selecting Pathway ssACN as a TX Protocol, a warning message appears informing you of the risks associated with
using an unsecured protocol (Art-Net). While Pathway ssACN itself is secure, the source Art-Net protocol is not. To continue,
click the "Yes" button.
NOTE that the individual Port property determines what type of conversion is performed (None/Disabled, E1.31 sACN or
Pathway ssACN), and the base device property determines the Pathway ssACN Password type. You may choose to convert
to E1.31 sACN on some ports, Pathway ssACN on others, and disable the function on others, or any combination.
See later in this manual for more detail on Art-Net Trap & Convert.
