Steps required to record a show:
• Verify your universe stream source(s) are functioning by observing DMX512 and/or Pixel outputs.
• Select Show number from dropdown dialogue then click Select Show.
• Enable the Record button by selecting the adjacent Enable box.
• Start your universe stream sources(s) and click Record.
• Click Stop once the sequence/show has completed.
At this point you have generated a show file on the SD card which can be played back upon demand. If you select the same show
number and Record again it will overwrite the existing show no questions asked. To prevent accidental overwriting of shows,
untick the Recorder Enable setting and click Update.
By default, during recording DMX512 and Pixel ports are disabled. By selecting the Record Monitor setting you can observe the
output during recording. With LeDMX4 PRO configured for maximum pixels on every output with full pixel mapping depending
on universe update rate there may not be sufficient processing capacity to both record and output simultaneously.
Stream recording starts from the first Art-Net or sACN message received after Record is clicked.
RECORD TRIGGERING
Usually a show or lighting sequence has a definite start and finish state and it may be a little tricky to start the show and click
Record then Stop at a precise moment especially if the show is intended to be looped for example without noticeable transition.
By selecting Record Trigger Universe / Channel the show recording will not occur unless the specified channel is above 0%.
Universe is sACN 1-63999 with Art-Net equivalent displayed adjacent. Channel can be entered in the right-hand box 1-512.
Record Trigger Universe is independent of any other configured universe on the device and in larger systems would be broadcast
or multicast to multiple devices in order to synchronize recordings.
Steps required to record a show with triggering:
• Verify your universe stream source(s) are functioning by observing DMX512 and/or Pixel outputs.
• Select Show number from dropdown dialogue then click Select Show.
• Enable the Record button by selecting the adjacent Enable box.
• Click Record. (Nothing is recorded yet)
