P501
9-Pin, D-Type Connector: RS232 connection for communicating with the EV-2 microcontroller using
the supplied routing software or a command line interface ( see Appendix E ). Data format is 19200, e,
8, 1.
P504
9-Pin, D-Type Connector: RS232 connection to the CM for serial bridging. The default data format is
19200 baud, 9-bit format for the CM-1. 9-bit format supports any 8 bit format with parity such as
19200, e, 8, 1. The default data format for the CM-2 is 19200 baud, 8-bit format.
SW200
Programming switch: The EV-2 microcontroller can be programmed via its serial port, connector
P501. The supplied software can be used to perform field updates to the board's code and firmware.
This programming capability is initially disabled, but can be enabled by setting the hex switches to
FFF8H and then clicking on the "Hex Switches" display (see
Figure 8
). For more information about
the programming mode, please refer to the
Programming the Microcontroller
section.
SW201-SW204
Hex switches: SW201-SW204 may be used to uniquely identify the unit on a network. Valid settings
fall within the range 0000-FFEF (values FFF0-FFFF are reserved). Changing these values updates the
value of the CobraNet module's SNMP variable,
sysName
, to the current hex switch value. Through
SNMP, the user may query this variable. The SNMP response is of the form
"PEAK_AUDIO_EVAL-SWwxyz", where the wxyz represents the hex values of the switches in
ASCII format.
SW500
System reset switch: This momentary switch resets the EV-2 and attached CM, and initiates calibration
operations for the analog-to-digital converter (ADC) and digital-to-analog converter (DAC).
Software
The EV-2 is supplied with the CNEval.exe application, which may be used to setup audio routes on the
EV-2 (this should not be confused with routing audio over the CobraNet network). The EV-2 has eight
sources of audio input, with each source consisting of a stereo pair of audio channels. The sources are:
•
Four Synchronous Serial Interface (SSI) audio streams from the CM
•
An AES/EBU audio input stream.
•
Two audio streams from the ADC
•
A sine wave generator
The ADC produces two sets of stereo audio streams, one high-quality and one low-latency. Please refer to
the Cirrus Logic CS5396-KS documentation for more information on the ADC. The sine wave generator
produces a stream of two identical 24-bit resolution sine waves. Using CNEval.exe, the user can route any
of these eight source streams to any of the six output streams. The available output streams are the four SSI
audio streams going to the CM, one going to the DAC and one to the AES/EBU transmitter.
