  • ETC as many other console manufacturers offer two versions of sACN: 

    1. sACN Release  - from 2009 

    2. sACN Draft - from before Release

     

    The two versions are not compatible. As a sACN sending device, you can only send one version at a

    time. An sACN receiving device like a dimmer or gateway can receive both versions (if they have 

    the latest softwares) 

    Hope that helps. 

    In the consoles, you can set up for sACN protocoll which version "draft" or "release" you want to 

    send. 

  • ok,

    can you tell me if the C code ETC is giving is the draft one or the release one?

    and to continue with my first post, is there is anyway to have the Release sACN C source code somewhere?

    best regards,

    Nicolas

    This code is released to aid developers as a stepping stone for their own application.

    The code as of 14/09/2009 (DD/MM/YYYY) supports ratified E1.31.

    "ETC is releasing the following source code to assist the entertainment industry in moving to interoperability over ACN. These sources are prototype code for the E1.31 protocol which is a member of the ACN suite. "

     

    For open source E1.31 (and others) I suggest you visit the OLA: https://code.google.com/p/open-lighting/

  • yes, I'm refering the one Marcus have pointed.

    I didn't realized that the F revision was published after the PLASA ratification...

    @Marcus,

    I know the OLA project but sACN code is deeply build into OLA stuff and I'm looking after something more usable outside OLA's context.

     

    best regards

  • Just a quick update: the Open Lighting Project has moved away from code.google.com. Their new code repo is at Github: http://github.com/OpenLightingProject
