9
o
Attack
Time:
Select this to set how long it takes for the current signal to be fully attenuated.
o
Hold Time:
Select this to set how long the current signal remains fully attenuated after the
incoming audio falls below the threshold.
o
Release:
Select this to set how long it takes from the fully attenuated signal to return to its
previous level after the incoming audio signal falls below the threshold.
o
Attenuation Level:
Select this to set how much the current signal’s volume is attenuated
(“ducked”).
•
Delay:
Select this to set how long it takes for the zone to play any incoming audio signal after it
receives it. This is useful when multiple zones are playing the same audio signal—listeners in
certain areas may hear that same signal multiple times because the sound from each zone
reaches them at different times rather than all at once. Delaying the zone’s audio output can
help prevent this effect.
•
Dynamics:
These settings determine the dynamic control (via compression) of the zone’s
output signal.
o
On
/
Off:
Select this to enable (
On
) or disable (
Off
) the zone’s dynamic control.
o
Threshold:
Select this to set the threshold. The incoming audio signal must be louder than
this threshold to trigger the dynamic control.
o
Ratio:
Select this to set the ratio of the dynamic control—how much the signal is attenuated
relative to its original level.
o
Attack
Time:
Select this to set how long it takes for the dynamic control to compress the
signal.
o
Release:
Select this to set how long it takes from the compressed signal to return to its
original level after the incoming audio signal falls below the threshold.
o
Gain:
Select this to set how much gain is applied after the signal is compressed.
o
Knee:
Select this to set the knee of the dynamic control. This determines how sharp or
smooth the “curve” is when compression is applied at the threshold. A “hard” knee
produces very dramatic compression, while a “soft” knee produces a more natural-sounding
compression.
Mute:
Select this to mute either the music only (
Music
) or all audio signals (
All
).
Ethernet:
Select this to configure your Ethernet settings. Select
IP Address
,
Subnet Mask
,
Gateway
, or
IP Control Port
to configure DN-508MX to detect network settings automatically (
Auto
On/Off), or enter
settings manually using the
Volume/Sel
knob.
Baudrate:
Select this to set the baud rate of each port.
RS232C
is for the
remote port
.
RS422
is for
the
RS-422 port
. Each rate is shown bits per second (BPS).
Time:
Select this to edit the
System Time
and set the current month, day, year, hour, minute, and
second. DN-508MX will display this at the top of the web interface and will use it for scheduling.
You can also set DN-508MX to enable (
On
) or disable (
Off
) daylight saving time. When on, select
each menu below it to set the month, day, and hour that daylight saving will start and end. Choose
Offset
to select how much the time will be shifted.
Passwords:
Use these fields to set a new password for the administrator (
Admin
), which can control
all DN-508MX functions, or the operator (
Operator
), which can control only certain functions.
