Windows 7 + Artnet: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 11:10, 21 June 2017

This applies to Windows 7 and MXWendler version 4.2 and above

Problem:

Art-Net does not start. MXWendler Logwin says Network interface 192.168.4.20 not found

Solution:

Windows offers many network interfaces, let MXWendler know which one is the the one you want to use
You need to name the correct network interface by its ip adress
To find out your current ip adress,
- Enter Win+R
- Enter cmd
- Enter ipconfig
Enter the ip adress in the network interface field like 192.168.4.20
Be sure that the administrator user account has a password set
Turn off all firewalls

Tip:

Use the free DMX Workshop from Artistic License to test Art-Net functionality
Also check Tutorial Connecting the grandMA 2Port Node with MXWendler via Art-Net
