GeNetix GN2 GeNetix GN2
GeNetix Node 2 is a two-port Ethernet-DMX node that is compatible with any console supporting Art-Net and sACN. GeNetix Node 2 can also be used as a USB interface for MagicQ PC systems, unlocking MagicQ into reduced mode when connected via its USB-C or Network port.
Configuration is simple, whether done locally via its in-built display, remotely with its onboard web server or from the console. Powered by either PoE or its USB-C port, this versatile device is at home in many different environments as a standalone interface, truss-mounted in the rig via its M12 receiver or installed via its DIN rail mount.
GeNetix Node 2 supports Art-Net, sACN, RDM and supports both DMX input or output from its two DMX ports.

GeNetix Protocols
GeNetix network nodes support industry standard lighting protocols; Art-Net V1,2,3 and 4, sACN - including priorities on a per universe basis and Remote Device Management (RDM).
DMX timings are fully configurable, with refresh rate, break time, frame time and MAB.
DMX Fallback
DMX Fallback enables fixtures on a single universe to be connected in a loop to two ports on the GeNetix node for redundancy. If a single cable is broken anywhere in the DMX loop, all fixtures can still receive DMX.
Individual ports can be set to Output, Input or Fallback.
DMX Fallback is supported within a GeNetix node and also between multiple GeNetix nodes.
Scenes
GeNetix nodes support storage of 10 Scenes that can be recorded from the incoming Art-Net or sACN data. Scenes contain DMX data for one or more ports on the node.
Scenes can be replayed from either the node front panel, from the MagicQ / QuickQ Console, via the webserver or via 10Scene wall plates on the GN5 & GN10 Nodes.
Node Configuration
The GeNetix network nodes can be configured from MagicQ consoles and PC systems and from QuickQ consoles. They can also all be configured from a web server. The nodes with a front panel can also be configured from the front panel.
GeNetix nodes also support a lock PIN to prevent the configuration being modified from the front panel of the GeNetix
Lost Data Behaviour
GeNetix Nodes support 3 modes for when the node loses network data (Art-Net or sACN)
Hold – holds the last output DMX values
None – stops outputting DMX
Zeroes – Outputs DMX 0's on all channels
DMX synchronisation
GeNetix nodes support synchronised DMX output to reduce tearing. Synchronisation is controlled via ChamNet and is available when used with MagicQ consoles.
