FACTORY RESET
This is a last resort option if for whatever reason incorrect or forgotten device network settings have rendered your device
unusable. A word of warning – this function will factory reset *ALL* eDMX devices on your network so it’s critical to separate off
the device requiring reset. We recommend directly connecting a computer and eDMX device using a crossover cable so there’s no
chance of additional eDMX devices accidentally being reset too.
Several warnings are presented before the command is sent. This function is not intended for use with eDMX/LeDMX PRO and
ultraDMX2 PRO devices and will not have any effect in firmware 3.0+.
5. PORTS, MERGING, PRIORITY AND DMX INPUT
PORTS AND MERGING
eDMX Products are capable of several advanced merging and stream selection functions usually only found on high priced
equipment. Support for both HTP (Highest Takes Precedence) and LTP (Latest Takes Precedence) merging of 2 sources producing
a single DMX512/pixel universe output thus permitting 2 controllers to co-exist for 1 lighting rig. To achieve DMX stream merging
simply send 2 Art-Net or sACN streams with the same Universe ID and configure the applicable merge scheme HTP or LTP. If the
number of sources exceeds 2 only the first 2 will be processed and all others are dropped. Possible merging sources are:
