Features

• Flexible Network Configuration: The EasyNode ARS2048B offers a range of network configuration options through a Windows application and a web browser interface. Users can conveniently enable or disable DHCP, or manually set the IP address, subnet mask, and gateway address.
• Multi-Protocol Compatibility: The device is compatible with ArtNet, RDM, and sACN protocols, allowing for seamless conversion between ArtNet and sACN protocols to DMX to meet the needs of various network environments and devices.
• Efficient DMX Control: The device can simultaneously output to four DMX domains (2048), and users can freely assign the DMX universe to the XLR ports, offering an efficient and flexible way to control DMX.
• Bi-directional ArtNet Functionality: The ARS2048B has bi-directional ArtNet capabilities, allowing it to both receive and send ArtNet signals for enhanced control.
• Compact and Durable: The device features a compact design with an all-aluminum shell, making it durable and easy to carry.

Overview

The EasyNode ARS2048B is a four-channel lighting signal converter. The name "ARS2048B" comprises key aspects of its functionality:

• "A" stands for Artnet, indicating the device's compatibility with the Artnet protocol.
• "R" represents RDM, denoting that the device supports the RDM protocol.
• "S" signifies sACN, which means that the device can convert sACN into DMX.
• "2048" suggests that the device can output to four DMX domains simultaneously.
• "B" is for bidirectional, representing the device's ability to convert Artnet and sACN protocols into DMX.

In essence, the ARS2048B serves as a versatile tool for individuals seeking a lighting signal converter that seamlessly converts both Artnet and sACN protocols into DMX, while offering the convenience of multi-domain output.

Hardware

Three Versatile Modes: Guided by LED Indicator Lights

DMX Out & RDM Mode

Indicator Light Color: Blue

In this mode, the EasyNode ARS2048B not only converts network signals (Artnet or sACN) into DMX signals but also sends RDM signals to fixtures or systems that support RDM functionality. This dual-functionality allows for more advanced control and communication with compatible lighting equipment.

DMX Out Mode

Indicator Light Color: Green

In DMX Out mode, the device solely converts network signals into DMX signals, without sending RDM signals. This ensures compatibility with fixtures or systems that do not support RDM functionality, avoiding potential interference that might be caused by receiving RDM signals.

DMX In Mode

Indicator Light Color: Red

In DMX In mode, the EasyNode ARS2048B converts DMX signals into Artnet signals. Graphic software on a computer (such as WYSIWYG, Capture, etc.) can receive Artnet signals and output simulated lighting effects.
