Acclaim Lighting ART IO - Manual (Page 23)

Protocol Conversion
With many signals coming into the Art SSC and many signal going out, the Show Control page is also the
place where you can program Conversion between different protocols. For example you can program
an Art-Net Source and fit it within an Action that sends out DMX-512, thus creating an Art-Net to DMX-
512 converter.
Templates
The Show Control page provides ready-made Templates for several typical action arrangements.
Templates can be easily copied to the Source list and modified in necessary.
The following table describes the functionality of the templates.
Art-Net → DMX Converts Art-Net input universe 1 to DMX Out A and Art-Net input universe 2 to DMX Out
B.
DMX → Art-Net Converts DMX input to Art-Net output universe 1.
DMX → MIDI Converts DMX input to MIDI output. DMX channels 1-128 are converted to CC messages
on MIDI channel 1. DMX channels 129-256 are converted to CC messages on MIDI
channel 2. DMX channels 257-384 are converted to CC messages on MIDI channel 3. DMX
channels 385-512 are converted to CC messages on MIDI channel 4.
GPI → DMX GPI port 1-4 is converted to DMX channel 1-4 on DMX Out A.
GPI → MIDI GPI port 1-4 is converted to Note On 1-4 messages on MIDI channel 1.
GPI → OSC GPI port 1-4 is converted to OSC “/gpiX” messages.
GPI → Art-Net GPI port 1-4 is converted to DMX channel 1-4 on Art-Net output universe 1.
MIDI → DMX Converts incoming MIDI to DMX channels.
MIDI → Art-Net Converts incoming MIDI to Art-Net channels.
Art-Net → Recorder Maps the first 16 channels of the 'In A' universe to the playback intensities of the
recorder's memories.
Touch Screen →
Recorder Touch Screen layout with faders to control the playback intensities of the recorder's
memories.
GPI → Console Triggering GPI port 1-4 will jump to the corresponding cue in the Console.
OSC RGBW Example OSC actions to match the TouchOSC template that can be downloaded from our
website. This example assumes a RGBW fixture is connected with starting address 1.
OSC → Recorder Controls the playback intensities of the recorder's memories by incoming OSC
messages. The OSC URI is /trackX, where X is the memory number.
DMX Splitter The DMX signal from DMX Input is sent out on DMX Outputs A and B.
Production Test This template is used for testing the device during the production process.
aTouch
Creating a aTouch layout is done by creating a 'Touch Screen' action-list and adding actions. For each
action you can choose between various controls like buttons and sliders. The order of the actions will
control the arrangement in aTouch.
