PSN (PosiStageNet)

grandMA3 stations can receive PosiStageNet (PSN) data. PSN is a protocol designed to communicate the position of identified points in a 3D space; it is an open protocol that can be used to transmit tracking information between servers and hardware systems.

For a detailed description of PosiStageNet, see the external link to the PosiStageNet Protocol description v2.0 PDF.

To open the PSN menu, Menu - In & Out - PSN.

The following is a description of the specific parameters that can be set in the PSN menu:

• Sender IP: Adds the IP of the PSN Source.
• Requested: Set to Yes to request the PSN Source.
• Port: Sets the Port for the PSN Source.
• Mulitcast IP: In case of sending the PSN data to a multicast address, the user has to manually add the multicast IP of the PSN system
• MapX, MapY, MapZ: Maps each axis to a different axis. A drop-down opens to choose the target axis.
• InvX, InvY, InvZ:  Inverts the incoming data per axis. Toggles the cell between No (=empty cell) and Yes (= data will be inverted).
• Merge Mode: The merge mode can be selected in a dropdown. 詳しくは DMX Port Configuration を参照してください。
• DMX Priority: The priority is used for merging DMX inputs. 詳しくは DMX Port Configuration を参照してください。
• Tracker ID: Sets the ID of the Tracker.
• MArker ID: Sets the ID of the Marker Fixture.
• Position XYZ: Shows the position of the tracker.
• Speed XYZ: Shows the speed of the tracker.
• Rot XYZ: Shows the speed of the tracker.

	ヒント
	As soon as an axis is mapped or inverted, the individual trackers display their values according to the settings made by the user.

	ヒント
	If the sender is transmitting the data via Unicast to the selected Interface in the PSN menu, the PSN system automatically detects the data.

	ヒント
	The basic Port configuration is 56565 and the standard Multicast IP is 236.10.10.10.
