Connecting Artistic Licence ArtNet box to Full Boar

Hi,

I think I am being a bit stupid but I am having real trouble connecting my Artistic Licence ArtNet box to the Hog. I have used this bo in the past using a Vista T2 and had no worries so I understand how the general concept works etc.

The box is connected to the hog using a cat5 cable. The hog is 'seeing' the box when I press 'set up' and 'network' and so will let me say that output 1 is subnet 1 universe 1 etc etc (I need to us 9 of the 12 availalbe outputs on the artnet box).

When I patch a fixture and want to assign the fixture to a specific universe/port on the artnet box, I am not given the option to path it there. Instead I simply get the usual DP1 option to hard patch to the desk.

any help on this please? Or is someone can write an idiots guide to patching fixtures to artnet universes for me then that would be good!

Cheers

    Thanks for this. I will have a look at it now. I am using an external DP8000 in line and so hopefully that will be fine.

    I have now got to the stage where all is talking to each other etc however when I am to assign a specific universe to the artnet box on the HOG, I am only given the option to assign up to 16 universes (a little keypad box appears rather than typing it in). Since I require 17 universes how is it possible to manually type this in rather than choosing from that keypad box given

    cheers
