Overview
The grandMA3 onPC 4Port Node 4k is MA's general purpose node for getting DMX where it is needed, in a venue, from a rack or up in the truss. It outputs four synchronised DMX universes in any grandMA3 system and enables 4,096 parameters in grandMA3 onPC.
It is housed in a 9.5 inch 1RU case with a 3.9 inch colour display, can be powered entirely by PoE, handles MA-Net3, MA-Net2, sACN and Art-Net and is fully RDM compliant. It suits theatres, churches, schools, corporate AV and touring racks.

Forefront Tip
Power the node from a PoE switch and you only need one network cable to the truss or rack position. Name each node in the grandMA3 session and set its universes from the console, then use the front display to check status when you are on site. Fit the MA rigging plate and a truss clamp and the node can hang right beside the fixtures, so DMX runs stay short.
