E1.31, often called sACN, provides a very simple protocol that offers functionality comparable to proprietary DMX512 over Ethernet protocols while being compatible with the ANSI E1.17 suite of protocols. The standard is being revised, limited to the addition of IPv6 compatibility and the correction of errors. Input on additional features is not being sought at this time. Comments are due 2 October. ANSI Approves Reaffirmation of E1.32 On September 15, ANSI's Board of Standards Review approved the reaffirmation of ANSI E1.32, Guide for the Inspection of Entertainment Industry Incandescent Lamp Luminaires. The standard is now available on the ESTA website at http://esta.tsp.org/freestandards for download at no cost, thanks to the sponsorship of Prosight Specialty Insurance. The standard also is available for purchase from the ANSI eStandards Store and the IHS Markit Standards Store for $15. Volume 21, Number 18 Page 1 ANSI E1.32 provides guidance in the inspection of stage and studio luminaires used in the entertainment industry to evaluate their safety and any needed maintenance. The information contained in the document is intended to supplement the information contained in manufacturers’ maintenance instructions.
