DIGIDOT C4
Overview
The DiGidot C4 is an in-house development of DiGidot based in Amsterdam, the Netherlands. This advanced LED driver is a product of our own field
experience; we felt that no LED controller had all the options that most project require. The DiGidot C4 is a small and powerful LED controller, that
suits all kinds of situations. One device drives more than 6000 singles LEDs. Furthermore, it supports 40+ IC types and various industry standards. It’s
all you need in LED and show control!
Features DiGidot C4 Live
Support for more than 40+ types of LED
The DiGidot C4 Live supports more than 40+ of the most commenly used SPI protocols to control LEDs what makes the DiGidot C4 by far the most
advanced LED controller. Not only does the DiGidot C4 has SPI support but also rerouting of DMX to Art-Net or Art-Net to DMX.
Output up to 12 Universes - Art-Net to SPI conversion
Easely choose how much LEDs you want to control! The DiGidot C4 live comes in a 4, 8 or 12 universes license. You can even scale up your installation by upgrading your license to max 12 universes per DiGidot C4 or even by daisy chaining multiple DiGidot C4 devices together with the unique
build in ethernet switch.
Advanced Mapping
Each of the four digital outputs on the DiGidot C4 can control up to 1536 individual controllable lights in its most ideal setup. That’s up to 6144 individual lights in total. You can freely change the protocol of the outputs, assign universe numbers, change the start address and change the advanced
settings of each universe.
Merge Inputs
When your working with a setup using multiple sources of Art-Net input, the
Digidot C4 can merge the two inputs based on a HTP-Merge called a parallel
universe. Our HTP-Merge has proven itself during live shows up to 200 Art-Net
universes.
Adjustable color order
Somtime the color order of a Art-Net input doesn’t match the LED’s ur using.
Simply changing the color order within the advanced settings of the Art-Net input
universe solves your problem.
Combine channels
The future is 16-bit control over your LED installation. With combine channels you
can merge two 8-bit channels into a 16-bit channel. Doing a fade from 50% to 0
over a few seconds will now look al ot smoother. Of course you will need to have
16-bit LED’s for it to work.
Art-Net ip address filters
Build in Art-Net ip address filters allows you to filter all the incomming signal and
listen for a specific Art-Net universe on a specific ip address. Very usefull in large
setups!
Less is More!
Previosly some installations required multiple Art-Net to DMX nodes and DMX
to SPI decoders, where the DiGidot C4 is all of that in one. It replaces 12 ArtNet nodes and SPI decoders. So you can say; less devices, less cabling, less
installatiom time meaning less costs. Furthermore, the DiGidot C4 comes with a
build in ethernet switch, so you can daisy chain multiple DiGidot C4 devices.
Repeat channels
Optimise your input - output when having to control identical objects by repeating
your incoming Art-Net channels and repeating them multiple times to your output.
In the advanced options you can set how many channels you wat to repeat and
how many times those channels are repeated.
Multiple dimming curve options
Often, when dimming, the amount of light output doesn’t change much in the first
half of the dimmers range and then drops fast when the dimmer is past halfway
– leaving halve of the dimmers range virtually unused. The DiGidot C4 provides
smart logarithmic dimming curves that suits every the right dimming for every
situation.
Art-Net routing
Art-Net routing comes in handy when having DMX input that one would like to
convert to Art-Net or when a Art-Net universe needs to be redirected to another
Art-Net universe.

Features DiGidot C4 Extended
There are occasions in which the lighting installations requires recordings, play and trigger functions, The DiGidot C4 Extended brings you exactly
those specific features and of course the same functionalities as the DiGidot C4 Live.
Record your favorite scene’s
The DiGidot C4 Extended allows you to record your input up to 8 universes and process the recording into a flawless looping scene. The DiGidot
comes with a 8Gb industrial graded MicroSD card to store all your favorite scenes.
Triggering those favorite scene’s
Triggering was never so easy and versatile. The DiGidot App or build-in web interface contain a rich set of tools to setup actions like playing a scene
list with individual playing time, cross-fade while transitioning to the next scene and brightness control and all of that with the wide variety if inputs,
like DMX, Art-Net, time based, 3 x analog contact closure, power cycles, UDG, HTTP-Get, the build in button and the DiGidot App.
