GrandMA with DMLw/Axon..

Hi All,

trying to get the GrandMA to communitcate with DML..but cant get it to work. Had anyone tried before?

DML is set to DHCP, gt IP from a DHCP router. Had set the IP on Router to 2.0.0.1, cant set the subnet, it remains at 255.255.255.0.

Thx

  • Hi Aruvin,

    You should be able to control the DML-1200 and the Axon with Art-net. But you should approach as you are controlling 2 separate fixtures. On the DML-1200's menu, and can set the IP Address to use DHCP, and then go in an set the Art-net Sub-net and Art-net Universe accordingly, then set the start address. This thought take care of the 'motion' part of the fixture.

    Using a DHCP router is the only way to go in this case, as the internal Axon will only take a DHCP assigned IP Address at boot-up. If there is no DHCP router, then the Axon will auto-assign itself an IP Address. You can not manually configure this IP Address.

    Essentially there will be 2 IP Addresses for a single fixture. The only way to to configure the Axon Art-net info, and addressing is thru the CMA. You do not have access to the Axon thru the DML's menu. So you have to set-up Art-net on the DML as well as on the Axon.

    Also make sure what Axon Protocol you are using/patched; v1 or v2 and how many graphic layers.

    The patch should ay out like this: (add more graphic layers as needed)

    DML-1200 Motion: 1
    DL v2 Global Layer: 52
    DL v2 Graphic Layer 1: 107

    Hope this helps,
