Outputting DMX

In order to output levels from Gio, you can either use the DMX ports on the back of the console or
you may connect a Net3 gateway or Net2 Node. If your device receives Net3 or ETCNet2 directly,
no gateway or node is required.

Gio has two DMX ports. To output, connect one 5 pin XLR cable per port. The first port will default
to outputting the first universe of DMX, addresses 1-512, and the second port to the second
universe, outputting addresses 513-1024. Configuring DMX ports to something other than the
defaults is done in ECU> Local I/O> Local DMX Outputs.

Nodes and gateways will function with Gio out of the box without previous configuration. However
if custom configuration is required, you will need to use either NCE (Network Configuration Editor)
or GCE (Gateway Configuration Editor). GCE is installed on Gio by default and can be accessed in
ECU> Settings> Maintenance> Gateway Configuration Editor (GCE). NCE can be installed on
the console or a Windows

®

PC for configuration.

The NCE or GCE Software CD and related user manuals and setup guides were packaged with
your gateway or node. For more information on Net3 gateways or Net2 nodes, see the product
literature that accompanied the hardware or download it from our website,

.

NCE and GCE software can also be downloaded from the ETC website.
