Art-Net-Universe-Mapping

•Within the VERTEX DMX Patching , we are using a decimal numbering for all control universes. This includes our internal numbering as well as the Art-Net™ and sACN numbering.

•By default, Art-Net™ is defined by using a combination of subnets and universes within hexadecimal numbering. To make it easier to switch between output protocols and to simplify your patching, VERTEX internally uses only decimal numbers for ethernet based Control-Data.

•The output for Art-Net™ matches of course to the protocol specifications. VERTEX takes over the conversion into subnet and universes for you under the hood.
