Destinations
Once fixtures have been placed onto the Context Grid, their data will need to be routed to a destination. This can be
done using the Destinations tab.
There is a separate area of the Destinations tab for each of the protocols. When the Destination tab is selected, the
protocol of the current context will be displayed. A different protocol can be viewed by clicking on the name of the
protocol.
Destination Protocol Information
IMPORTANT! If you are using KiNET PORTOUT, please read the section below when entering device.port numbers
on the Destinations tab.
KiNET has two protocol versions: v1 = DMXOUT and v2 = PORTOUT. You must select the correct protocol type
depending on the Color Kinetics power supply that is used. Check with the manufacturer's documentation to
determine what type of supply you have and how it should be configured.
For Art-Net and sACN only - and only once in the table - there may be an entry of "default" in
the universe field. This will cause all patched universes without a discrete destination entry in
the table to be sent to the corresponding default IP address. If the default entry is given a
broadcast IP address then ArtPOLL discovery will be used (as long as it is not disabled at the
Mbox Setup window). This would lead allow for automatic unicasting to all ArtPOLL compatible
devices on that subnet.
For KiNET PORTout or DMXout, the device number (for example,
303) must be entered for each connected power supply. This will
cause Mbox to send data for fixtures using that device number to
the designated IP address and routed to the appropriate port on
that device.
