About W5500S2E-S1 receive sACN packet

Question

Dear Wiznet Support I have recently bought 10pcs W5500S2E-S1 S2E module for product develop, my goal is using W5500S2E-S1 to receive sACN and Art-Net Ethernet packet, which is something standard for DMX running on the Ethernet. Right now I can communicate to this W5500S2E-S1 module via UART and RJ45 interface, and I can receive unicast and broadcast packet, so far so good. Here’s my question, I can’t find a way that let W5500S2E-S1 successfully receive “multicast” packet, is there existing some kind of settings I can use? So far I don’t know how to move on to next step. Thank you in advance for solving my problem.

Hi midnightcow OK, I got it. If I don’t want to do the firmware modification, can you recommend other S2E module that supports multicast message receiving? Thanks.

Hi Irina Thank you, two quick question. Do you sell W7500S2E-Z1, the network socket type is Ethernet transformer? Seems like all I can find on several big authorized distributor is W7500S2E-R1 (Network socket type: RJ-45). Where can I find the firmware link of W5500S2E-S1? I want to modify the firmware of W5500S2E-S1 like you suggested, thanks!

Hi Irina OK, got it, so could you tell me which module do support the unicast, boardcast and multicast function? I can change the module, that’t not a big deal, the reason why we choose the S2E module is that we want to save engineering time both for HW and FW, we do not preferred building the serial to Ethernet function from the very beginning status, thank you.

Hi All Any update? My goal is to implement E1.31 / sACN and Art-Net 1,2,3,4 on the ethernet module, could be translate to serial or SPI or any other common protocol that ST’s microcontrollers can communicate with, thanks!

I did request the person in charge about multicast and I have not received an answer yet. I’ll let you know as soon as anything.

Thank you Becky, our FW engineer is under development right now based on your bin file, will let you know if we face some issue, appreciate for your response.

Hi Becky We try to send ArtPollReply 281 bytes, and we see these bytes are separated into several UDP packet. Is there some way we can do that we want to receive all bytes in one UDP packet? Thank you.
