Art-net and DMX outputs

I think that I should be able to do this, but have never attempted it. Can I output Artnet to drive a media server on Universe 1, and still use console outputs 2-4 to drive dimmers and other fixtures with straight DMX? Road Hog Full Boar 3.2.2, I think.

Is it just a matter of assigning the correct universe to the Artnet output?

Thanks

    Yes.

    Patch your internal DP8000 as normal, with your server fixtures patched on Universe/Output 1 and additional fixtures on Universe/Output 2-4.


    In the network settings for the internal DP, assign Universe/Output 1 to your preferred Art-Net output universe.


    The server DMX data will actually output on Art-Net and the physical DMX output in this scenario. You could patch your server to Universe/Output 5-16 to free up the additional physical output on the back of the console.
