Chauvet DJ- DMX-AN2 nomad setup

I have set up the DMX-AN2 setup and can successfully ping the DMX-AN2 from the nomad software. SACn is checked correctly- IP address on the computer is in 1 number of the node, the subnet is the same. It can ping successfully. RDM is off. The dongle works..... I still cannot control the lights.

Anyone have any ideas?

Thank you in advance

  • I'm not familiar with the Chauvet product, but you could download sACNView (https://sacnview.org/) to use to see if you are outputting sACN data OK, or to use to output some test data.

    Assuming that is ok, it sounds like the DMX-AN2 has a web page, I would browse to it (type the IP in your computers web browser) and see if it has any diagnostic info, or if you need to enable sACN on it.

  • Very new to Nomad and having similar problems here. Running Nomad on a Mac and trying to connect to ArtNet Network. ETC 'tip' appears to suggest I need to load Net3 Gateway Configuration Editor. But this is a Windows program so it won't load. Any advice. Thanks.

  • Instead NGE which is deprecated use Concert, this software works also on macOS. www.etcconnect.com/.../Concert.aspx

    or ArtNet there is an ArtNet viewer on https://artnetview.com

  • OK, so configuring the software to output ArtNet is a bit different to the above question which is about sACN - a different control protocol. Broadly what you need to do is go into the eos shell and enable artnet; you may need to do some specific configuration for your network adapter since ArtNet requires a specific IP address range. If you search for ArtNet in the Eos family forumI think you'll find some helpful answers

  • Thanks Tom, all sorted.

  • Thanks for the advice. In the end it appears the problem was me programming the network node to universe 1 when with the ArtNet it shoiuld have been universe 0. All seems fine now.
