How many universes can be recorded?
The DiGidot C4 Extended will only record the universes that are configured in the de-
vice. The limitation of recorded universes is therefore defined by the license. All record-
ed universes can simultaneously be redirected to the Art-Net output.
If the amount of universes that you want to record exceeds the amount of universes
corresponding to your licence, you have to use multiple C4 Extended controllers with
the right amount of universes and configure them to the appropriate universes. Once
you start recording, all C4 Extended controllers will start recording their designated
universes. There is no limitation in terms of universe numbers, you can record any uni-
verse that's being transmitted within the same Art-Net network.
Can licenses be combined in a network?
Yes it's possible to combine various licences such as Live and Extended within one
network. One application example could be that the DiGidot C4 Extended version is
used to record an Art-Net stream which is triggered by the analogue inputs. The control
signal will then be send by Art-Net to all other devices which can output the amount of
universes, corresponding to the specific licences.
Please note that in order to maintain sync, we recommend to use high speed routers/
ethernet switches.
How does the DiGidot C4 know what time it is?
As soon as you load the DiGidot C4 interface, the browser time of your computer or
mobile device is copied. The internal battery will keep track of time, until you load the
interface again to synchronise time. Please note that the browser time is not neces-
sarily accurate, because it can be set manually or correspond to different time zones.
If you are going to use time based triggers and events, please make sure to verify your
browser time.
