This unit is intended for indoor use only
Basic Setup
Right out of the box, the DIN-ODE Mk2 is factory configured to be a DMX OUTPUT device, listening to the first Art-Net Universe (0x00). It is also set as a DHCP node, so you can plug it into your existing router, and it's good to go.
To make any changes to the configuration, you will need the IP address of DIN-ODE Mk2. ENTTEC provides a free App (available for Windows and Mac) called NMU, which will find the DIN-ODE on your network and display its IP address.
Using the IP address one can access the built-in web-inter­face inside the ODE via any modern web-browser. The web­interface allows the settings of the unit to be changed.
Once setup, any Art-Net/sACN/ESP enabled software/app or a lighting control/desk can be used to send DMX out of the ODE. For a list of recommended apps, please check the website www.enttec.com/din-ode2
Dip-Switch: There is a dip-switch inside the unit, accessible by removing the top cover. Switch 1, when engaged termi­nates the DMX output. Useful, if the unit is used at the end of a DMX chain, to terminate the DMX signal. By default, switch 1 is off. Switch 2 is not connected, and has no effect when engaged or not.
LED Status
The DIN-ODE Mk2 comes with four LED indicators located between the DC power jack and the RJ45 connector.

NMU
NMU (Node Management Utility) is a free Windows and Mac application that is used to manage compatible ENTTEC DMX over Ethernet nodes.
NMU will help you find your unit's IP address and then open a browser window to access the web-interface.
Please follow these steps:
1. Download NMU from www.enttec.com/nmu
2. Ensure that your DIN ODE Mk2 is hooked up
physically by an Ethernet cable.
3. And connected to the same physical network
(or router) as the computer on which you will run NMU.
4. Open NMU. If prompted with multiple networks,
select the correct network. (identified by the IP address of your computer on that network)
5. Press the Discovery button, and wait till NMU
finds all supported ENTTEC devices on your network.
6. Once found, select ODE and use the IP address to
access the web-interface via your web browser.
Web Configuration
The DIN-ODE Mk2 can be configured and controlled through a web browser, running on a computer system, located on the same Local Area Network. Any modern web browser, such as Chrome, Firefox, Internet Explorer, Safari or Opera, running under any operating system, including Windows 7/8, Mac OS X or Linux can be used.
Either click on the underlined url displayed, or type the IP address (as detected by NMU) into your web browser to ac­cess the ODE Web Interface. The left side menu allows all
