DMX Linking

Diagram

DMX

Personalities

The Nexus™ Aq 5x5 has 11 DMX personalities: 3Ch, 4Ch, 6Ch, 10Ch,

15Ch, 75Ch, 100Ch, 105Ch, 111Ch, HSV, and HSI.

For more

information, see the DMX Values in this QRG or the

User Manual on the

Chauvet website at http://www.chauvetlighting.com/product-manuals-

literature/.

In the 3- and 75-channel DMX personalities of Nexus™ Aq 5x5, only

red, green, and blue values can be changed. These DMX personalities

use the unique Auto Color function. Auto Color automaticall

y mixes

and blends the white emitted by the LEDs into the RGB values from

the controller to expand the range of color and enhance color

rendering.

Master/Slave

Mode

The Nexus™ Aq 5x5 works in Master/Slave mode. For more information,

see the User Manual on the Chauvet website.

Ethernet

Connections

Ethernet connections link Nexus™ Aq 5x5 panels to routers and each

other through their Neutrik® etherCON® ports

. Ethernet connections are

for running TCP/IP-based control system, such as Kling-

Net and

Art-Net®. All Neutrik®

etherCON® ports can be either input or output

ports

, and panels can be linked to each other, but the start of each chain of

panels must be a router port.

Kling-Net Mode

Kling-Net is a network protocol that uses TCP/IP to send DMX over

a network and into the Neutrik® etherCON® connection ports of

the Nexus™ Aq 5x5 panels. Kling-Net works seamlessly with

Kling-Net-supported ArKaos software

for configuring and mapping

display devices. For more information, see t

he User Manual on the

Chauvet website at http://www.chauvetlighting.com/product-manuals-

literature/.

Art-Net™ Mode

Art-Net™ is an Ethernet protocol that uses TCP/IP to send DMX

signals over a network and into the Neutrik®

etherCON® connection

ports of the Nexus™ Aq 5x5 panels. Art-

Net™ requires configuration

through the control panel. For more information, see the Menu Map

this QRG or the User Manual on the Chauvet website.

An Art-Net™ Primer is available from www.chauvetprofessional.com

Art-Net™ is designed and copyrighted by Artistic Licence Holdings Ltd.

Nexus™ Aq 5x5 panels do not work with Art-Net™ controllers sending

Kling-Net

Mapper

Kling-Net Mapper is part of the Arkaos software package. It informs the

ArKaos software about the layout of the Nexus™ Aq 5x5

products in a

process called mapping.

The following section provides step-by-step instruc

tions for mapping the

Nexus™ Aq 5x5 products.

Part 1: Confirm

Network

Connectivity

1. Connect the Arkaos computer and Nexus™ Aq 5x5s to the same

network. For more information, see Ethernet Connections Diagram.

2. Set the all the Nexus™ Aq 5x5s to Kling-Net operating mode.

3. Open the ArKaos Kling-Net Mapper. All the Kling-Net™ devices

populate a list on the left side of the screen in the Connected Devices

window.

The Connected

Devices Window

It can take up to 20 seconds for all the products to populate the list and the

color of the device’s listing provides information about its status.

Colors and Activity

Explanation

Black with an ID number and IP

address There is connectivity and everything is working

properly, but the device is not yet mapped.

Green with an ID number and IP

address

There is connectivity and everything is working

properly, and the device is mapped.

Black to red with no IP address during

initial population

The King-Net™ Mapper could not find an IP

address for the device, most likely because the

system is using an Ethernet switch instead of

an Ethernet hub.

Black to red after initial population The connectivity has been lost.

Part 2: Test

Network

Connectivity

1. Select the Output dropdown icon from the tool bar at the top of the

Kling-Net Mapper screen. One of the options will be Test Pattern.

2. Select Test Pattern. The image to the right of the icon is a small

screen, indicating that Test Pattern is the current mode.

3. Select the icon to the right of the Output dropdown icon. One of the

options will be Flashing Output Selection.

4. Select Flashing Output Selection. The icon is a faded green square

with an arrow, indicating that a flashing green light is the current test

pattern.

Left click once on an LED display product. The product flashes green.

6. Repeat Step 4 for every product in the list.

Nexus™ Aq 5x5 QRG EN

Part 3: Map The

Products For

ArKaos

1. Make sure the Nexus™ Aq 5x5 products are all listed in the

Connected Devices window and have flashed when tested. For more

information, see Part1: Confirming Connectivity.

2. Click on the first product in the list and drag it onto the mapping

image in the center of the screen. A shape representing the display

product shows on the mapping image. The product displays the pattern

on the mapping image.

3. Drag, rotate, and resize the shape on the mapping image until it is in

the position needed for the presentation layout.

4. Repeat Steps 2 thru 3 for every Nexus™ Aq 5x5 product.

5. Complete Parts 1 and 2.

6. Click on File in the Arkaos Kling-Net Mapper.

7. Click on Save As.

8. Save the file.

Remember the location of the file because the file must be loaded into

ArKaos software.

Mounting

Nexus™ Aq 5x5 panels are rigged using the CHAUVET® Affinity™ Rig

Kit or the CHAUVET® CLP-

15 clamp, both of which are sold separately.

The rig kit can bear the weight of 16 panels, in 1 column of 16,

or 2

columns of 8. The rig kit has 3 holes for M12-compatible bolts an

d works

with most standard truss clamps. The mounting clamp

can bear the weight

of 4 panels hung in a single column. The mounting clamp

has one hole for

M12-compatible bolts and fits most standard truss.

The coffin locks on the top and bottom of the Nexus™ Aq 5x5

panels

connect the tops and bottoms, and bear the weight, of the panels. The

locking bolt

connectors on the sides connect the panels and align the pixels

into rows, but they can not bear the weight of the panels.

•When using only the integrated bracket, do not link more than 4

panels in one column.

•The locking bolt connectors on the sides of the Nexus™ Aq 5x5

panels is not load-bearing. Do not hang the panels sideways.
