PoE PROPERTIES (POE Models)

PoE TOTAL DRAW (W)
Displays the current power draw from connected PoE devices.

ADVANCED PROPERTIES

ART-NET ALTERNATE MAPPING
Enabled (by default). When enabled, Art-Net Universe 0:0 is treated as Universe 1. When disabled, Art-Net universe 0:0 is
ignored.
This feature is used in conjunction with the "Art-Net Trap and Convert" feature. It is a device parent-level property; it
is enabled across the entire device. The Art-Net Trap and Convert property can be enabled on a port-by-port basis.
The Art-Net protocol uses two hexadecimal numbers, a 'subnet' and a 'universe', to define its DMX universe numbering.
Numbering is usually shown as # - # and the valid range is from 0 - 0 (zero-zero) to F- F.
However, most other common protocols, including sACN, do not have a universe 'zero'. The issue is compounded because
some early Art-Net implementations are shown in a straight decimal representation (1, 2, 3, 4...) without any indication if "1"
corresponds to Art-Net universe 0-0 or to 0-1. Art-Net controllers are strongly urged not to transmit on 0-0.
By default, Art-Net Universe 0-0 is ignored by the VIA and the packets discarded. When Art-Net Alternate Mapping is
enabled, VIA switches will map Art-Net Universe 0-0 to Pathscape Universe 1. When Alternate Art-Net Mapping is disabled,
Art-Net Universe 0-0 will be ignored by the VIA and Art-Net Universe 0-1 will be routed as Pathscape Universe 1.
