Setup Manual - Butler PRO

System description

The e:cue Butler PRO is a 16 channel DMX/RDM or e:pix interface that acts as an

interface between a server running the e:cue Lighting Application Suite and devices

with DMX512 or e:pix connections. The Butler PRO usually gets mounted in a

universal 19-inch rack system or on walls or ceilings.

The server connection is a standard CAT5 RJ45 based Ethernet interconnect. The

device connection is also RJ45 based. All usual CAT5 RJ45 cables can be used.

Please note that e:net requires an isolated network segment and cannot

operate properly when using e. g. Internet trafﬁc or video/audio stream-

ing in the same network simultaneously.

Setup Manual - Butler PRO

Mounting and installation

Mount the Butler PRO in a standard 19-inch rack system. Use appropriate rack

screws, cage nuts and spring clips for mounting.

Unit distribution

As the Butler PRO has no active cooling, place a

maximum of two units together, leave one unit free

or place a passive device, followed by the next two

units. Additionally care for:

yclosing of unused units with rack plates

ymounting in a fan-ventilated closed rack

yplacement of the rack in an air conditioned room

Connect the Butler PRO with the outputs of the Ethernet switch and with power.

When installing and mounting more than one Butler PRO in factory state,

make sure that only one Butler PRO gets connected and conﬁgured at

one time. If connecting more than one device with the factory IP address

(192.168.123.1) the Ethernet connection will not work

User interface

The Butler Pro comes with a circular keypad and an LC display for operation

and setup. During regular operation the Butler PRO displays status and opera-

tional messages on the display. When in setup mode, parameters and values are

displayed, the keypad is used for selecting parameters and changing values. Only

keypads, that are allowed at a certain state, are lit up, either in operational or in

setup mode. This picture is the Butler PRO DMX.

revision levels of the loader and the ﬁrmware. After loading is completed, the Butler

PRO enters operational mode. The setup mode must be selected separately.

During online operation, usually the IP address and other network parameters are

shown, also the host address of the server running the Programmer of the Lighting

Application Suite. All used values for parameters are just examples, they depend on

the conﬁguration of your Butler PRO.

Operational messages
