🟡 NDB Controllers — IP Registry

NDB LED controllers receive DDP (Distributed Display Protocol) data from FPP players and drive LED installations throughout the forest. There are 35 units across the IP range 10.50.0.50–10.50.0.84.

ℹ️

NDB controllers are on a separate control chain from the PKnight Art-Net nodes. NDBs use DDP from FPP; PKnight nodes use Art-Net from Chataigne.
