Originally Designed for Dedicated Hardware

While DMX Core 100 was originally developed for custom wall-mounted hardware controllers, this snap package brings the same powerful software to standard computing platforms. Run on your own server, industrial PC, or embedded Linux device.

Web Server and Default PIN

The local web server for the Web UI is hosted on port 8000 and 8001 for https (self-signed cert). Login with default pin 1111.

Post-Installation Configuration

Because of the high performance requirements of processing 100 universes we need to make sure the host computer is set up with larger than default network buffers. Also to get audio playback you have to connect the alsa to the snap. We have developed a simple script that handles all of that, linked in the documentation at this page: https://docs.dmxcore.com/dmx-core-100/troubleshooting/config-issues

Perfect For:

• Architectural lighting installations
• Theaters and performance venues
• Houses of worship
• Museums and galleries
• Corporate facilities
• Entertainment venues
• Hospitality and retail
