PRG NODE PLUS USER MANUAL

Art-Net (Series 400)

In the Art-Net (Series 400) configuration, an Art-Net compatible control console may be connected to one or more
PRG Node Plus units.

Guidelines:

+

When connecting an Art-Net compatible console and multiple PRG Node Plus units, a 100Mb Ethernet switch or
hub

must

be used. Standard CAT5e Ethernet cables should be used in this configuration. Refer to the illustration

below.

+

The Series 400 Mode of operation should be used in this configuration. Refer to

"Art-Net (Series 400) Mode"

on

page 18.

+

When using a Node in this way, there are some important considerations that should be observed during setup
and operation. Refer to

"Configuration"

on page 11.

+

When using a Node as an Art-Net-to-DMX device, note that the Art-Net output does not pass data; it only mirrors
the DMX outputs. It is not possible to place the Art-Net output on the same network as the Art-Net input.

Power Up Procedure

To power up the Node Plus unit and set its address:

Step

1. Once the AC input cable is connected and power is applied, the unit will receive power. (It does not have a

power on/off switch.)

Step

2. Using Menu Display controls, set Node Plus thumbwheel starting address (refer to

"Operation"

on page 14).

Ensure that addresses are unique among all Nodes in system.
