Safety conditions PX760 Gate 2 DMX RDM PoE is a device powered with safe voltage 48V DC or power supply using twisted pair cable PoE (Power over Ethernet) in the IEEE 802.3af standard, however, during its installation and use the following rules must be strictly observed: 1.
48V DC power socket DMX512 ports Ethernet Neutrik etherCON port Power supply The Gate 2 DMX RDM PoE device can be powered from two power sources. The first is PoE (Power over Ethernet) in the IEEE 802.3af standard using a twisted-pair cable, without using a power supply, the second is a standard 48V DC power supply from an external power supply (no power supply included).

Information communicated by LED indicators The indicators diodes on the front panel of the gate provide information on the status of the unit: the two upper LEDs are bi-color ones (blue – orange) and communicate the status of DMX-RDM. Each diode is assigned to one of the two DMX ports.

Additional information communicated by the LED indicators: if the screen saver mode is enabled or an “Art-Net Mute Indicators” • command has been received, all the diodes go out, if the gate receives an “Art-Net Indicate” command, all the diodes start •...
PX760 cooperation with the grandMA2 console The PX760 gate can work with the grandMA2 console, however, support for devices supporting the RDM protocol requires changing the console settings. To operate RDM devices, the settings must be changed in the gate Auto discovery on enabled, the gate will continuously search for RDM devices.
Page 27
The PX760 gate should be connected to the console via an Ethernet cable to the ETHERCON 2 (ETH1) connector with the IP address set so that the console is in the same network as the gate. If Gate 2 DMX RDM is on the 2.x.x.x network with the mask of 255.0.0.0, then for the device to work...

If everything is correctly configured, the gate continuously searches for the devices supporting the RDM protocol, the console is in the same network as the gate and has enabled RDM and Art-Net Output Active support. After adding the main RDM window to the main scree, you should see a list of all devices that supported the RDM protocol:...
Upgrade In order to update the gate firmware, use the program DMX-Workshop, which is available on the Artistic Licence website: http://www.artisticlicence.com. Firmware updates are available on the manufacturer's website. 1. In the main menu field select the option Node List. 2.
Page 31
NOTE! When installing new software, problems may arise due to the Windows ® firewall settings. One of the solutions is to completely disable the system firewall for the time of uploading the new firmware version. The second is to add the DMX-Workshop program to the exceptions in the firewall giving all permissions without having to completely disable the firewall.
