Network Settings

Network Settings allow you manage all of the network functions of ONYX through one central location.

Click on the categories below to expand or contract each section to reference as needed.

Settings

Shows

In the Shows settings, you can see any active X-Net network shows, and the right column shows a number of statistics and tasks.

You may also Join and Leave shows here. Learn more about using X-Net here.

Devices

The Devices settings allows you to see other network consoles and PC's running ONYX.

In the main left column, we can see any devices on the network, and what show they are running.

Once a device is selected, we can Push our show file, Leave the network show, Update a network device, Synchronize the custom fixture library and Update the software on all detected devices via the right column.

The right column also contains some useful statistics about the selected device.

Interfaces

Much like the other network tabs, Interfaces allows you to see the various network interfaces on the current device and configure them.

In the left column, we select the network interface we wish to configure.

The right column then has 2 main sections:

Settings

Settings allow you to change the IP address and Subnet Mask for the selected network interface.

This section has 3 options at the top:

Menu Item	Function
Automatic	Allows the computer to have it's IP address set via DHCP from the router in your network system.
Static	Allows you to fully customize the IP address and Subnet Mask.
Ether DMX	Sets the IP range in the 2.X.X.X range, which is recommended for running DMX over Ethernet.

Options

The options section allows you to set which network protocols you wish to allow on the selected network interface.

Be sure to press Apply in the lower right hand corner when you have completed making changes.
