Connection

HDMI / DPLightSharkArt-Net / sACNSwitch / routerVJ-LinkcomputerProjector / LED wall
Network cable from the desk to the VJ-Link computer, the picture goes by HDMI or DisplayPort.

On the desk

  1. Settings → Network / DMX outputs: enable Art-Net or sACN for the universe VJ-Link listens to.

  2. Use the LightShark's wired network port in the VJ-Link range.

Patch

  1. Patch VJ-Link on the universe and start address you set in VJ-Link under Settings → DMX and network, as 91 channels: either as a fixture type built from the CSV channel list (Settings → DMX and network → Save channel list (CSV)) or as 91 single dimmers.

  2. Put the channels you need on faders or executors: master (1), scene (3), the color slots (9–28) and the layer opacities (29, 39, 49, 59) are a good start.

  3. Move a fader and watch CONNECT → Live values in VJ-Link: the bar of the channel moves, the DMX pill at the top turns green.
