Developer: Art-Net – ArtPoll and ArtPollReply timeout

A Node must respond to an ArtPoll with an ArtPollReply within 3 seconds. If the Controller does not receive a response in this time it should consider the Node to have disconnected. It is a requirement of Art-Net that all controllers broadcast an ArtPoll every 2.5 to 3 seconds. This ensures that any network devices can easily detect a disconnect.
