Haukcode.sACN

A high-performance, cross-platform sACN (E1.31) library for .NET - enabling DMX512 lighting control over IP networks.

What is sACN?

sACN (Streaming ACN / ANSI E1.31) is a network protocol for transmitting DMX512 lighting control data over IP networks using UDP. It's the industry standard for modern entertainment and architectural lighting systems.

Features

✅ Send and receive DMX data via sACN/E1.31
✅ Multicast and unicast support
✅ Sync packet support for frame-accurate multi-universe synchronization
✅ High-performance with buffer pooling and async I/O
✅ Cross-platform (.NET 8.0, 9.0, 10.0)
✅ Reactive extensions support

Quick Start

Receiving DMX Data

using Haukcode.sACN;
using Haukcode.sACN.Model;
using System.Net;
using System.Threading.Channels;

var channel = Channel.CreateUnbounded<ReceiveDataPacket>();

var client = new SACNClient(
    senderId: Guid.NewGuid(),
    senderName: "MyReceiver",
    localAddress: IPAddress.Any,
    channelWriter: async p => await channel.Writer.WriteAsync(p),
    channelWriterComplete: () => channel.Writer.Complete());

// Join Universe 1
client.JoinDMXUniverse(1);

// Process packets
await foreach (var packet in channel.Reader.ReadAllAsync())
{
    var data = packet.Packet.RootLayer.FramingLayer as DataFramingLayer;
    Console.WriteLine($"Universe {data.UniverseId}: {data.DMPLayer.Data.Length} channels");
}

Sending DMX Data

using Haukcode.sACN;
using System.Net;

var client = new SACNClient(
    senderId: Guid.NewGuid(),
    senderName: "MyController",
    localAddress: Haukcode.Network.Utils.GetFirstBindAddress().IPAddress);

byte[] dmxData = new byte[512];
dmxData[0] = 255;  // Channel 1 at full intensity

// Send via multicast
await client.SendDmxData(null, universeId: 1, dmxData);

// Send via unicast to specific device
await client.SendDmxData(IPAddress.Parse("192.168.1.100"), universeId: 1, dmxData);

Key Methods

Sending:

SendDmxData() - Send DMX channel data
SendSync() - Send synchronization packet

Receiving:

JoinDMXUniverse() - Subscribe to a universe
DropDMXUniverse() - Unsubscribe from a universe
JoinDMXUniverseForTrigger() - Listen for sync packets only
