I don't own any DMX widgets, so I was curious about the whole Artnet out on Hog4PC. I understand you have to have a Hog widget inline. Can someone elaborate as to what excactly you get? If you have a single DMX widget and a DP2K, does that mean you can only use one DMX port via Artnet on the DP2K? Does the DMX port via Artnet mirror the DMX widget or can you actually expand more universes of DMX?
You can only run Artnet 300 feet before you start to have issues. You can run DMX 2000 feet before you start having problems. One advantage is having up to 16 universes on one cat 6 cable.
The only thing the DP2000 will do is give you the conversion of artnet to dmx. It will not unlock any universes in artnet mode. It looks like everything is moving to the usb format. They even have a super duper widget allowing 8 universes.
