FIXED:DMX CHOP incorrect sACN universe implementation

ANSI E1.31 standards use a 16-bit field for universes allowing for 65,535 total universes with a range limited from 1 to 63,999 (0 and 64,000-65,535 are reserved). Currently the DMX Chop will only output data if the universe parameter is 32,767 or lower.

Seems like it might be using a signed int for the variable rather than an unsigned int.

Build - 2023.1230 and 2025.32280
OS - Windows 11 Pro 10.0.26200

Are you testing via loopback from DMX Out CHOP β†’ DMX In CHOP within the same TouchDesigner file, or are you sending to another system/device?

Could you share an example file?

I took a look into it and indeed it’s mistakenly clamping to the Art-Net max number of universes (32768) rather than the sACN max – I will fix this. Thanks for the report.
