]]> Pknight ArtNet to DMX Node CR011R Works with Mix16Pro on Mac. Using a Thunderbolt to Ethernet adapter, I have been successfully using the PKnight Artnet to DMX Node ($69.99) to control my lighting rig with Mix16 Pro.   I have used this with a direct connection as well as through a router.  All that was required to connect was to manually adjust the IP Address, Subnet mask and router on the Thunderbolt connection in "Settings:Network" on my Mac and they connected right up.  You do have to make sure that the Thunderbolt connection is set at the primary (top) connection.   Below are the detailed steps I used.

1.  Connect your Mac to the PKnight Node via an Ethernet cable (I used a Thunderbolt to Ethernet adapter)

2.  Connect the PKnight Node to your DMX device(s)

3.  On the PKnight Node, press the menu button until you see the IP Address

3.  On your computer, go to Settings > Network.  You should see the connection in the left panel of the window.  Make sure this connection is at the top of the list.  (you may have to Unlock to make changes)

4.  From the dropdown menu (will probably say DCHP) select "Manually"

5.  Create a similar IP Address as the Node (i.e.  Node IP: 010.201.006.100 - create 010.201.006.101 on your computer)

6.  On the PKnight Node, Press the menu button until you see the SubNet Mask.  (it should read 255.000.000.000)

7.  Enter the exact same Subnet Mask on your computer.

8.  Finally, on your computer where it says "Router,"  enter the exact IP Address of the PKnight Node (ie 010.201.006.100)

9.  Hit "Apply" at the bottom corner of the Network window on your computer.

10.  Launch Mix16 Pro and the devices should connect momentarily.  (You should see the network lights blinking on the Node next to the Ethernet port and a blue LED blinking under the DMX port on the other side.  You may have to move some of the virtual faders on the Lighting panel of Mix16 Pro to send the initial signal.)

If there is anyway you could provide a midi dialogue page to select the midi device it would be useful.
It appears to me that bluetooth LE devices are connected to the ipad by the app rather than the ipad bluetooth settings page.
