Pknight ArtNet DMX Ethernet Lighting Controller Interface CR021R User Manual

1. Продукт бүтүп калдыview

The Pknight ArtNet DMX Ethernet Lighting Controller Interface CR021R is a robust and compact device designed for professional lighting control. It functions as a 2-universe bidirectional Art-Net to DMX512 node, offering flexible control over DMX-compatible lighting fixtures. Key features include PowerCON for stable power, PoE (Power over Ethernet) capability for simplified wiring, and a truss-mountable design for versatile installation.

Негизги өзгөчөлүктөрү:

• PowerCON Version: Equipped with an internal transformer for stable power supply, supporting 90~240V input with grounding for safety and allowing for long cable lengths.
• Оңой орнотуу: Features an LED display and four function buttons for direct configuration without requiring external applications or web interfaces for basic settings.
• Truss Mountable: Includes an M10 screw hole on the top for easy installation on a truss using a stage light clamp hook (clamp hook not included).
• Алыскы конфигурация: Supports remote configuration of IP address, subnet mask, Net address, Subnet address, and Port Universe via DMX Workshop software.
• PoE Available: Can be powered via PoE (Power over Ethernet) using a standard 48V PoE switch (1 2 3 6 pins power supply), eliminating the need for a separate power cable.

2. Коопсуздук маалыматы

• Always ensure proper grounding when using the PowerCON input (90~240V) due to high voltage.
• Аппаратты жамгырга же нымга тийгизбеңиз.
• Ашыкча ысып кетүүнүн алдын алуу үчүн аппараттын айланасында жетиштүү желдетүүнү камсыз кылыңыз.
• Only use specified power sources (PowerCON 90-240V or 48V PoE switch).
• Avoid blocking the LED display or control buttons during operation.
• Тазалоо же тейлөө алдында электр энергиясын өчүрүңүз.

3.1 Кубат туташтыруу

The CR021R offers two power options: PowerCON or Power over Ethernet (PoE).

• PowerCON: Connect a PowerCON cable to the PowerCON inlet on the device. Ensure the power source is within the 90-240V range and properly grounded.
• PoE: Connect an Ethernet cable from a standard 48V PoE switch (with 1 2 3 6 pins power supply) to the PoE/ART-NET port. This will provide both power and data connectivity.

3.2 Truss Mounting

The device features an M10 screw hole for easy mounting on a truss. A stage light clamp hook (not included) is required for this installation.

5. Техникалык тейлөө

• Тазалоо: Түзмөктүн сыртын тазалоо үчүн жумшак, кургак чүпүрөктү колдонуңуз. Катуу химиялык заттарды же абразивдүү тазалоочу каражаттарды колдонбоңуз.
• Сактагыч: Аппаратты колдонбогондо түз күн тийбеген жана өтө температурадан алыс салкын, кургак жерде сактаңыз.
• Текшерүү: Periodically check all cable connections for wear or damage.

6. Кыйынчылыктарды

• Кубат жок: Ensure the PowerCON cable is securely connected and the power source is active, or verify the PoE switch is providing power and the Ethernet cable is properly connected.
• No DMX Output: Check DMX cable connections. Verify the DMX universe settings on the CR021R match your lighting fixtures and the Art-Net source.
• Тармакка туташуу маселелери: Confirm the IP address and subnet mask are correctly configured on both the CR021R and your computer/network. Ensure all network cables are functional.
• Түзмөк жооп бербейт: Disconnect power, wait a few seconds, and then reconnect. If issues persist, perform a factory reset via the DMX Workshop software (refer to remote configuration video for guidance).
