Hi, I had some dis connexion issues with my previous device : the enttec open dmx usb, so i followed your advice and bought a Showtec NET-2/3 Pocket to replace it. Unfortunately, i experience some troubles connecting it to Beam and my light devices. Could you help me ? I tried everything in the o…

Oh and the network node name that appears in Beam is 2(42:4C:CA:34:EE:F8. But when i select it, nothing happens

Hi Noemie, Your computer’s network interface used to connect to the Art-Net node needs to have an IP address in the same range as the node, as well as a matching subnet mask.

Hi Luka ! Thank you so much for your help !! It works now ! My frame rate is set up on 35Hz though, is it a problem ? Should I set it to 40 as you mentionned ? I take your advice for the Beam upgrade, i didn’t know the upgrade to Beam 2.0 was for free. I’m a little anxious that it could cause prob…

That’s good to hear! My frame rate is set up on 35Hz though, is it a problem ? Should I set it to 40 as you mentionned ? 35 Hz will work, but unless you have a very specific reason to use this (rare fixtures that cannot handle higher frame rates), I would suggest going with the highest frame rat…

I just got this unit and I was having issues with very intermittent response to the dmx I was sending it. My device was set to IP 2.0.0.1 and my computer 2.0.0.14. I changed the computer to 2.0.0.4 and this fixed the problem.
