Application Diagram

In this example, 3 Artistic Licence products (daliGate quad, artLynx quad and Art-Switch POE4) 

are used in combination to allow any Art-Net enabled lighting desk to control DALI ballasts 

alongside DMX fixtures. The Art-Switch POE4 optionally enables the gatways to be powered 

via the ethernet cable using Power-Over-Ethernet.
