ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
DMX512
Often shortened to DMX (Digital Multiplex), this communication
protocol is used mainly to control dimmers and multi-parameter
fixtures. A universe of DMX is defined as 512 channels. DMX sends
a nearly continuous stream of level information for each control
channel. It is a form of RS-485 digital serial communication.
RDM
Remote Device Management (ANSI E1.20) is a protocol enhancement
to DMX512 that allows low-speed bidirectional communication
between a system controller and attached RDM devices over a
standard DMX line. This protocol will allow remote configuration,
status monitoring, and management of devices.
sACN
Streaming ACN (ANSI E1.31), sends DMX-style control over TCP/
IP networks. It provides a fast and efficient mechanism to transport
the well-understood DMX protocol over Ethernet using an industrystandard protocol.
ACN
Architecture for Control Networks (ANSI E1.17) is a standard for
high-speed bidirectional communication over TCP/IP on Ethernet
network infrastructure. ACN is an open suite of protocols used
between network devices for the purposes of greater and more
adaptive control.
NET3
ETC’s enhanced implementation of the standard ACN Protocol Suite
(ANSI E1.17 and E1.31) including additional communication protocols
for specialized applications and support of legacy systems.
