LED Stage Wash Lights,Spot Mini LED Moving Head Lights,Lighting Control Console Manufacturers

I have a good news to tell all our customers, we always Now our 8*15w led bar use the ArtNET, it will be a great change for our lighting products.

Also we will try to use ArtNET for our other lights. Pls stay tuned, Guang Zhou SUN Photoelectricity Technology Co., Ltd will bring you new lighting market.

ArtNET is the perfect way to send and receive many DMX universes or to connect multiple wireless DMX  lighting consoles together. Since it uses the network to transmit and receive data, no special DMX cable and converter are needed. You only need those when you want to send actual DMX values to your lighting fixtures. Then you buy a ArtNET to DMX adapter and plug it anywhere on your network. With ArtNET, you can even use a wireless network (WIFI) and any other common and low priced ethernet gadgets you find these days. ArtNET is already an industry standard and more and more lighting equipment will support it in the future.

Why Art-Net?

Using ethernet for transmitting lighting data has many benefits. The following lists a few:
1.Ethernet (10BaseT/100BaseT) can carry up to 40/400 times as much data as a DMX512 cable.
2.The computer industry is huge! Using ethernet for lighting control provides access to a wide range of low cost products such as switches and radio links.
3.Ethernet uses low cost cable that is readily understood by building contractors. This allows all of the lighting cable to be installed and certified before the lighting contractors start their installation.
4.Many existing buildings are already wired for ethernet. This allows existing building cable to be used for retrofit or temporary lighting projects.
5.Products for moving data around physical barriers, such as cityscape projects or crossing rivers, are readily available. These include a range of technologies such as wifi radio links, laser links and telephony systems such as leased line, ADSL, ISDN, VPN and so forth.

What does Art-Net offer me that DMX does not?

In addition to all of the benefits listed above:

It allows remote patching of all of the DMX512 inputs and outputs. This is a big benefit for installations with multi-purpose rooms.
It allows DMX512 data to be merged in either LTP or HTP format. This can be used to include, for example, a house DMX lighting controllers into a system.
Features such as remote control of the wireless DMX lighting console are easy to implement.
It supports the RDM standard, allowing the controller to retrieve information from the moving lights and dimmers. This also includes the ability to automatically patch all of the lamps.
A lighting console’s video screen monitors can be transmitted over Art-Net to allow remote monitoring in, for example, the dimmer room.
Free tools, such as DMX-Workshop, are available to monitor data at any point on the network from a central location.
Perhaps most importantly, Art-Net is a royalty-free protocol that is supported by over 220 manufacturers worldwide.
