Product Overview

Ether-Lynx II is a rack-mounted DMX-to
Ethernet and Ethernet-to-DMX converter.
There are two DMX inputs and four DMX/
RDM outputs.
The product is capable of converting:
4 Art-Net universes to DMX512 & RDM,
y
or 4 sACN universes to DMX512
2 DMX512 universes to Art-Net
y
The product is easily configured by dialling
in the required Sub-Net and Universe using
the front panel wheel selectors. Alternatively,
Ether-Lynx II can be remotely configured via
the internal web-server or over the network
using DMX-Workshop (a free-of-charge
software package available from Artistic
Licence). When used with Art-Net 3, DHCP
is supported for automatic IP addressing.
Ether-Lynx II can be mounted in a 19" 1U Rack
Enclosure using the supplied Rack Ears. It is
supplied with a standard IEC connector.

Power Supply & Earthing
The internal power supply requires an input
in the range 90-250 VAC with an Earth
connection. The mains fuse should only be
replaced with a 3.15A slow blow fuse.
The table below summarises the internal
Earth interconnection and isolation.
(Please note that we use the term Earth-
Ground to avoid international confusions. In
Europe Earth-Ground is called Earth; in the
USA Earth-Ground is called Ground).

Ethernet Connection

Ether-Lynx II has two RJ45 (Ethercon)
connections (one front, one back). The product
can receive and transmit Art-Net (the public
domain protocol invented by Artistic Licence)
and can also receive sACN (the standard
managed under ESTA/PLASA E1.31). Ether-
Lynx II requires Cat 5 cable or better and
supports 10BaseT and 100BaseT.
Ethernet Indicators
The front panel ethernet connection has LED
data indicators (pictured on the next page).
