Settings of Sidus Four

Device Settings

On the Main Display, select the Settings icon to enter the Sidus Four Settings interface.

Ethernet Settings

1. In Ethernet Settings, select the Ethernet Protocol, IP mode, and set the Sidus Four network IP's. The MAC address of the Sidus Four is also displayed here.

2. In Ethernet Protocol, choose the control protocol, sACN or Art-Net, or allow Sidus Four to automatically detect the protocol present.

3. In IP Mode Settings, choose how the Sidus Four's IP is to be determined. Choose "Auto(DHCP)" to allow the network DHCP Server to automatically populate Sidus Four's IP Address, Subnet Mask, and Gateway IP. Choose "Static" to enter the information manually. 

Wi-Fi Settings

1. In Wi-Fi Settings, turn Wi-Fi ON or OFF, select the Control Protocol Wi-Fi should use, the Wi-Fi Mode (AP or STA), enter SSID and password and choose Wi-Fi IP settings. The Wi-Fi MAC Address and Wi-Fi Module Firmware Version are also listed.

2. Just like Ethernet Control Protocols, Wi-Fi also supports choosing between sACN, Art-Net, or automatic detection.

3. Wi-Fi connection modes: AP mode (wireless access point) and STA mode (station).

AP Mode: When set to AP mode, the Sidus Four's Wi-Fi will act as a wireless access point and acts as the DHCP Server in the network.

STA Mode: When set to STA mode, the Sidus Four will act as a workstation to communicate with other devices, such as a wireless router or a Sidus Four in AP mode.

4. Since Sidus Four Wi-Fi Mode can act as an AP or STA, the SSID (wireless network name) and Wi-Fi password settings are specific to those Wi-Fi modes.

When Wi-Fi is in AP Mode, then the SSID and Password refer to the wireless network other devices need to connect to in order to communicate with this Sidus Four. Both the SSID and Password are editable in the Wi-Fi Settings interface.

When Wi-Fi is in STA Mode, the SSID (wireless network name) refers to the network for the Sidus Four to join. Under Password, Enter in the network password of the router.

4. At the bottom of the Wi-Fi Settings interface, view the MAC address and firmware version of the Sidus Four Wi-Fi module.
