eDIN NFP+ Network Fade Processor

Pathway Connectivity's NFP+ (Network Fade Processor Plus) receives ASCII text commands from Crestron and AMX control systems and converts them to DMX512 directly, as well as to Pathport Protocol, Art-Net or E1.31 sACN.  The NFP+ calculates fades as necessary, removing all computational overhead from the controller while ensuring the proper DMX refresh is maintained.  Easily mounted on 35mm DIN rail, the NFP+ consolidates ASCII string conversion and DMX output into a single device.

• Compatible with any controller capable of sending ASCII text strings via UDP unicast (Crestron, AMX and most automation controllers)
• Outputs two universes (1024 channels) of DMX512
• Transmit the same data as Pathport, Art-Net, or sACN
• Multiple NFPs may reside on the same network with or without additional Pathport output gateways
• Simple command structure incorporates channel lists, ranges, and concatenation
• Commands may be sent individually or as a consolidated text file
• Handles all fade algorithms and maintains DMX refresh
• 1024 simultaneous fades possible
• Formerly known as Pathway Model # 1029
• 6.25" long
• Power-over-Ethernet or 24VDC operation
• PoE Class 1
• 4W power consumption
• Does not include power supply, requires PoE or 18-48 VDC PSU.
