Wired Control Menu

Allows for wired control of Quasar Fixtures. 

There are three main menus within the Wired Mode menu, DMX512, Art-net, and sACN. DMX512 requires additional settings in the DMX settings menu. Art-net and sACN require additional settings in the Ethernet Settings menu.

DMX512

DMX signal into the LAN 1 port of the Quasar Fixture. On all Quasar Fixtures LAN 2 outputs the DMX signal. The Quasar Fixture will need a starting DMX address that corresponds with the Patch on the control console.

To set the start address of the Quasar Fixture in Wired DMX Control:

Go to Config->DMX512->DMX Channel

To enable the internal resistor that terminates the DMX line to prevent reflection issues:

Go to Config->DMX512->Terminated

 

Art-net

Art-net signal into the LAN 1 Port of the Quasar Fixture. Quasar RR fixtures output the Art-net signal on the LAN 2 port. Quasar R2 fixtures DO NOT output Art-net on the LAN 2 port. Fixtures receiving Art-net require the following settings to function

  • IP Address
  • Subnet Mask
  • Router
  • Universe
  • Starting DMX Address

If there is a DHCP server on the Lighting Network the IP Address, Subnet Mask, and Router can set automatically in the IP Addr Mode by Enabling Auto

To configure the lamp to receive Art-net if using DHCP:

  • Go to Config->Wired Settings->Art-net
  • Config->Ethernet Settings->IP Addr Mode->Auto
  • Config->Ethernet Settings->Universe
  • Config->Ethernet Settings->DMX Channel

**There must be a DHCP server on the Lighting control network to use DHCP to assign IP addresses

 

To configure the lamp to receive Art-net if using Static IP addresses:

  • Go to Config->Wired Settings->Art-net
  • Config->Ethernet Settings->IP Addr Mode->Static
  • Config->Ethernet Settings->Set IP Addr
  • Config->Ethernet Settings->Set Subnet Mask
  • Config->Ethernet Settings->->Set Gateway
  • Config->Ethernet Settings->Universe
  • Config->Ethernet Settings->DMX Channel
