Configuring Dante™ compatible devices
The
DICENTIS Conference System supports integration with third party Dante
TM
compatible
devices (like for example, a laptop). Configuring which Dante
TM
inputs and outputs are routed
to the Dante
TM
inputs and outputs of the DICENTIS Conference System is done via Audinate’s
Dante Controller which can be downloaded from the Audinate website.
Note:
The Dante Virtual Device is running on the DICENTIS Conference System server for the
Dante
TM
functionality. Only one Dante
TM
device can be active on a computer, therefore it is not
possible to install any other Dante
TM
device on the DICENTIS Conference System server.
Note:
The Dante Controller can be run from any computer in the network. Its serves to route
Dante
TM
inputs and outputs between Dante
TM
compatible devices.
