This package provides example programs for use with libartnet.

For installation notes, see the INSTALL file.

Examples provided:

 A. artnet-usb
 B. artnet-dmxconsole
 C. artnet-discover

A. artnet-usb
-------------

Usage: artnet-usb [OPTIONS] 
Acts as an ArtNet to DMX node using the Enttec Open Usb Interface

 -a <ip-address>	IP address to listen on (defaults to the address
                         of the first non loopback interface)
 -d <dmx-device>	device for dmx output (default /dev/dmx0)
 -p <port-address>	port address for output universe (default 0)
 -s <subnet-address>	subnet address for output universe (default 0)
 -v			be verbose (prints data for first four channels)

The universe address of the port is made up from the subnet address and the
port address. The four least significat bits are the port address, the four
most significat are the subnet address.

For example :

artnet-usb -p 3 -s 2

sets the universe address to 0x23


B. artnet-dmxconsole
--------------------
Usage: artnet-dmxconsole [OPTIONS]
A console based controller which outputs DMX data over ArtNet. 
Modified from the original dmxconsole in dmx4linux.

                          of the first non loopback interface)
 -p <port-address>      port address for universe (default 0)
 -s <subnet-address>    subnet address for universe (default 0)


C. artnet-discover
------------------

Usage: artnet-discover [OPTIONS]
Prints information about ArtNet nodes

 -a <ip-address>        IP address to use (defaults to the address
                           of the first non loopback interface)
 -t <seconds>		The number of seconds to wait for replies
