System Introduction

     Due to the rapid growing of modern  lighting industry, more and more theaters, entertainment/show lighting designer and TV studios designers needs are growing and becoming more and more complicated requiring faster and broader information highways by applying TCP/IP Ethernet technology to lighting controlling systems. HDL is one of the leading manufacturers in this field. In recent years, HDL has been devoted to     develop and produce LAN and WAN lighting controlling products that are cost effective.

     The TCP/IP HDLNET equipments comes into being. HDLNET consists of East Dragon Network Console, Shenzhou Intelligent Network Dimmer Rack, Control Room Network Workstation, Main Stage Network Workstation, Sub Stage Network Workstation, Auditorium Network Workstation and Portable Network Remote Controller, Network File Server, Network Dimmer Monitor, Network DMX Encoder/Decoder, Network Offline Editor, etc. The system is based on a reliable and extendable kilo mega optical fiber network communication platform.

     HDLNET is up to the standard of ESTA--“ACN”. The system is based on TCP/IP. The high-level flux  control function reduces network loads effectively, which can transmit 64 channels DMX-512 (32, 768 channels)signals. The system can run on 10BASE-T or 10BASE-TX, and conform to Ethernet IEE802.3 and IEE802.11b. UDP is used to compress DMX broadcast data. DMX data has 8 levels of PRI.Working with various system management software and network facilities such as network patch bay ammeter developed by HDL, lighting system GPRS messages service.

     HDLNET is realizing a resource-sharing with electricity Utilization system, stage mechanical controlling system, office network system and GPRS mobile communication system and other related control systems. Every HDLNET user can enjoy our convenient updating services in the aspects of system safety, technical management, data management, operation management, etc.
