Network Protocols
sACN
Eos v3.3.6 is compatible with all products that meet or exceed ESTA ratified standard ANSI E1.17 2006 Architecture for Control Networks (ACN) and ANSI E1.31 Streaming ACN (sACN) for the output of streaming levels.
Art-Net v1-4
Eos v3.3.6 is compatible with all products that utilize Art-Net versions 1 through 4 for DMX-over-Ethernet output of streaming levels.
Augment3d
In order to use Augment3d on a console, the console must have at least one Display Port connector. Augment3d is limited to Low or Medium render qualities when used on a console.
Alternatively, a computer can be tethered to run Augment3d for consoles that do not have at least one Display Port connector, or to access High and Ultra render qualities.

MVR and Vectorworks Import Support
Eos offers support for model and fixture import from Vectorworks into Augment3d.
Eos v3.2.0 and newer utilize Vectorworks' MVR export to move model and fixture data, and require Vectorworks 2023 Service Pack 3 or later. Older versions of Eos use generic 3D exports from Vectorworks for models, and an ETC-made plug-in for fixture data.
