Timeout outfade time
Here it is possible to set a fade time that will be used when a
Timeout
is selected. The DMX values will then fade
from their last values to a value of 0. When it has completed the fade, then it will stop transmitting DMX (High-Z
mode).
The maximum fade time is 10 seconds.
The
Hold
option also do not have a fade time option since it continues the DMX data stream.
Merge Mode
The bottom drop down list is for setting how the device should merge incoming DMX data from outside sources, if
the device is not under MA-Net control.
This could be DMX nodes that are set to a session number that does not exist. Then they can be used to transport
DMX through an Ethernet network - without any consoles or onPCs.
The options in the drop down are:
None:
There will be no merging.
LTP:
The universes will merge following the LTP (Latest Takes Precedence) rules.
HTP:
The universes will merge following the HTP (Highest Takes Precedence) rules.
LoTP:
The universes will merge following the LoTP (Lowest Takes Precedence) rules.

Where are the settings stored?
Changes to the DMX ports on Consoles, onPCs and NPUs are stored as a part of the show file. The settings will be
loaded into the devices when a show is loaded, but only if the "Network Config" settings are included when loading
from the show file. For more info on loading show files, please have a look at the
topics.
The DMX nodes (MA nodes) and MA switches are different. Their settings are stored locally in the devices and a not
loaded or changed with the show file.
