Hello
I have a small issue that I hope someone can help me out with....
I'm currently trying to configure a GrandMA1 to communicate via the Ethernet port to an ENTTEC Mk2 Datagate in order to output Art-Net. Unfortunately, for some reason or another, the two devices are not communicating with each other because when I "Scan for Nodes" in the DMX configuration Menu, the Datagate is no where to be found.
Here's the Setup:
GrandMA1, Datagate, and Laptop are connected to a D-Link 4-Port Switch (NOT ROUTER)
GrandMA1 IP Address: 192.168.0.1 (Art-Net from console Defaults to 2.168.0.1)
Datagate IP Address:2.168.0.11
Laptop IP Address is: 2.168.0.100 (Subnet Mask 255.255.255.0)
All IP Address are fixed
The Ports on the Datagate are set-up in the default configuration for "Artnet-to-DMX" with the SUBNET and ID ports addressed as Universe A 0:0 Universe B 0:1 Universe C 0:2 Universe D 0:3...etc
The console is configured for "DMX Output via Ethernet" with the protocol set to Artnet and the addresses are set to Universe A 0:0, Universe B 0:1, Universe C, 0:2, Universe D 0:3...etc
"ENABLED IF ALONE" is activated (GREEN)
All of the Ethernet Cables test good and have full connectivity.
Even with this setup, I can not get them to communicate with each other.
I have searched far and wide to find a manual for the ENTTEC Datagate but it is nonexistent. All that's available is a quick start guide with very elementary configuration instructions.
Anyone have a clue how to fix this problem? Any advise would be greatly appreciated.
Thank You Calvin Johnson
