ENTTEC - Datagate Family
The ENTTEC Datagate family is a range of Art-Net and sACN nodes designed to convert DMX over Ethernet to DMX and SPI pixel data.
- ENTTEC Datagate
- ENTTEC Storm24
- ENTTEC Pixelator
Profiles can be created on each device that contain different DMX and Pixel control routing configurations. The Datagate module within Ctrl Suite can poll the device to get the current profile, determine if a profile has been changed and trigger a profile on the device.
This module is ideal for receiving venues or front-of-house with multiple ENTTEC Devices - Use multiple Datagate family modules in combination with an interface to change all DMX conversion routing on your network at the touch of a button.
