LTP stands for "latest takes precedence" and is a method of merging DMX data from multiple sources. LTP is cheaper in terms of memory to implement that HTP because it only requires two buffers.

Example (using an 8 channel output buffer).

Source A Data Source B Data Output Buffer
Initial State 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
First frame from Source A 4 7 9 10 4 7 9 10 0 0 0 0
Frame from Source B 1 3 1 3 9 10 0 0 0 0
Second frame from Source A 1 2 3 4 5 6 1 2 3 4 5 6 0 0
