Before starting the eDMX Configuration utility please ensure your computer has appropriate IPv4 network settings, for example
IP 192.168.0.100 Subnet 255.255.255.0 Gateway 192.168.0.254 for Static IP defaults or DHCP/automatic.
Upon startup eDMX devices on the same subnet are automatically detected and displayed by IP address. You can re-poll for new
devices or just check the communications is okay by clicking “Search For Devices”.
Click on the desired device’s IP address in the list and all Settings will be retrieved. Note that if no response is received the
settings will remain greyed out. An activity box shows both transmitted and received messages to help with diagnosing
communication issues. If your network configuration has multiple adapters and or IP addresses you need to select the same
network range as the eDMX from the Network Adapter IP Address dropdown box and also ensure the subnet mask is identical.
Make changes to the applicable settings on the Network tab then click “Update Network Settings”.
Selecting “Firmware Update” will prompt for an appropriate firmware file and upload upon confirmation. A built in boot loader
permits updating of the eDMX firmware. Note only signed encrypted firmware files from DMXking.com can be successfully
loaded to ensure you won’t brick your device by accident. Future firmware releases for this product will be in the form 0113-
500-VersionMajor.VersionMinor.enc
The Port A & B tabs provide access to the DMX512 port parameters.
