This can be launched from the browser so that no access to the device is necessary! DMX4ALL-Command interface The ArtNet Relais/Analog Interface has another TCP communication interface. This interface uses the DMX4ALL-Commands via TCP packets. LED status display The LED status display shows the DMX reception.
ArtNet Relais/Analog Interface 4 Data sheet Power supply: 12-24V DC Power consumption: 200mA@12V; 140mA@24V (without connected load at the analog output) Ethernet: RJ45 Protocol: DMX512 ArtNet (downwards compatible) DMX4ALL Commands DMX channels: 4 up to 12 channels Output: 4x switch contacts (closer / NO) Each max.

ArtNet Relais/Analog Interface 4 Set the IP with IP-Configurator The IP-Configurator allows the setting of the IP-Address and net mask also, if the network settings of the PC are not in the IP-Range of the ArtNet Relais/Analog Interface. Install the program IP-Configurator Connect the ArtNet Relais/Analog Interface to network and turn on the device.
ArtNet Relais/Analog Interface 4 Device Configuration Call, via the address task at the web browser, the IP of the ArtNet Relais/Analog Interface (Delivery state: 2.0.0.10) to get the following configuration site: Each ArtNet-Node needs an own IP-Address, so the assignment in the network is clear.

For controlling the interface directly via TCP-connection please use the set web browser IP-address and use Port 10001. The sent and received data are RAW-data packages. Please take the potential DMX4All-Commands from the separated DMX4ALL- Command description. VCP-Control For controlling via a COM-Port a TCP-VCP-program must be installed, providing a virtual Com Port (VCP).
