It doesn't work on my desk and Edward organised a demo desk and it doesn't work on that one either. I was just wondering if anyone had upgraded the software and had it working.

Afx Report post Posted June 27 Got 7.9.5 to work with showtec 8/5 node using sacn. Ill have a look on artnet again when I get back. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CPlater1 Report post Posted June 27 Just after I updated to 7.9.5, I tried to use Artnetominator to check it. My FLX showed up in Artnetominator, and Artnetominator showed up as a node on the FLX. I couldn't see any levels though. I need to have a bit more of a play. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Edward- Z88 Report post Posted July 1 Hi all, As Simon mentions, he has discovered an issue where Art-Net data doesn't seem to be streaming. We haven't heard any other reports of this yet, so if you are experiencing the same issue please let us know. On 6/27/2019 at 10:18 PM, Afx said: Got 7.9.5 to work with showtec 8/5 node using sacn.

Let us know whether you find there is an issue. We are continuing to try and recreate this internally and struggling, which is very frustrating! Will post back when we have more information on the issue. If you have any queries just let us know. Edward Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CPlater1 Report post Posted October 12 Sorry I haven't replied with an update on this, been a bit busy. I will try to set everything up soon and test, if this would still be of interest? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I will try to set everything up soon and test, if this would still be of interest? After investigation, it turned out to be out of date firmware on Simon’s gateway which was the cause of the issue. ZerOS 7.9.6 has been released since this thread, so feel free to use this if you wish to test. Edward Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Erics Report post Posted October 29 If have just try to connect my FLX S48 running Artnet enabled with ZerOS 7.9.6 and my PC with ArtNetominator. I can't see any packets in the Software. The desk is sending dmx data on the second universe in the dmx monitor. I see 16 Nodes in the ArtNetominator Software with the locale IP of the FLX. And the FLX shows me under Network Overview: Artnet 4 - 1 device connected. So it seems that there is a data transfer. But i don't know if it's a bug of the PC software or if its a problem on FLX side. Edit: I opened Cpture on the PC and there you can see the Artnet Data comming in from the FLX. So it seems to be a bug on the ArtNetominator Software. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Edward- Z88 Report post Posted October 29 Hi Erics, I’m confident there isn’t an issue here with FLX nor ArtNetominator. In the ArtNet 4 protocol, FLX won’t start transmitting ArtDMX until a device asks for an ArtNet universe. ArtNetominator is purely acting as a “sniffer”, and is therefore not requesting a specific universe. You should find however if you have an ArtNet device on the network the ArtDMX would be shown in ArtNetominator. Any devices that are receiving ArtNet, will be shown on FLX in Setup -> Devices. Hope this helps and makes sense, if you have any questions let me know. Edward Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RolfG Report post Posted 12 hours ago Hello Edward, do you think it is possible to implement the option to send anyway, like in art-net 3 before? Because some Nodes do not request a universe too and do not work since the 7.9.5 update. That would make it possible to use new ZerOS with older Nodes too.

Edward- Z88 Report post Posted 11 hours ago Hi Rolf, Welcome to the Zero 88 Forum. ArtNet 4 is fully backwards compatible. Hence nodes and gateways that support ArtNet 3 should still work with ArtNet 4. It is only if there is a firmware issue, like there was with the early firmware on the Transcension N4 gateway that Simon had issues with further up this thread, that will cause problems. We will therefore not be introducing an option to broadcast a universe, as this is forbidden in ArtNet 4 if there are no subscribers to the universe. Are there any nodes in particular you have come across that are not compatible with ArtNet 4? If so it would be great to know what these are. If you have any questions let us know.

martin-144 Report post Posted 9 hours ago Hi Edward, there is a question coming up from my side, not having realised that this kind of behaviour exists. I am just in the process of building an ART-Net device, which at the moment just acts as a listener. This works fine with the "Aurora DMX" software on my Android tablet. I haven't tried on the FLX. If I would like to have this device controlled from my FLX, would this mean I have to send a ART-Net subscribe packet first? And how would it look like? Please point me to some place where this is described. Thanks, Martin Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Edward- Z88 Report post Posted 7 hours ago Hi Martin, The ArtNet specification can be found on Artistic Licence’s website below... https://artisticlicence.com/WebSiteMaster/User Guides/art-net.pdf Page 29 of the PDF discusses the ArtPollReply packet type, which is the packet a device replies to a console telling it universe information. If you have any questions let me know. Edward Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
