Dante Inputs
It is possible to select any channel(s) as being sourced from the Dante network. To do this, connect the Dante
network connection to the connection on the rear of the Device, and set the relevant Input Type menu Type
parameter to “Dante”.
When a Dante channel is routed to an input, the “Dante Audio” indicator above the encoders will illuminate. This
indicator will come on even if there are no cables plugged into the networked audio port on the Device.
As for the AES3 inputs, it is possible to set the relative gain between an Analog input and the signals sourced
from the Digital Audio Network using the Input Trim Dante gain parameter.
The amplifier will automatically select the correct sample rate from the incoming stream.
For other details on the operation of the Digital Audio Network, please refer to the relevant
manufacturer’s documentation.
Automatic Input Selection (Fallover)
It is possible to configure the input selection to be automated. The Input TYPE screen has a Fallover parameter,
which defaults to Manual, allowing you to select what Type of input you wish to use. When Fallover AES3>Analog
is selected (on an input channel which supports AES3), then the AES3 source will be automatically selected if it
has a valid audio stream on it. If the AES3 stream should fail, then Analog is automatically selected instead.
When Fallover Dante>Analog is selected, then the Dante source will be automatically selected if it has a valid
audio stream on it. If the Dante stream should fail, then Analog is automatically selected instead.
Similarly, it is possible to select Fallover Dante>AES3 on a channel that supports AES3.
The ‘Auto’ setting allows the highest priority input source that is active to be automatically selected, so the user
could just plug a source into any input and it will be automatically selected. The priorities are: Dante first, AES3
second, Analog third.
Note that any automatic selection will take precedence over manual selection, so if you try to manually select
Dante when there is no valid Dante stream, then it will revert to the fallover input source.
Gain and Polarity
The gain page of the input channel selected allows users to increase or decrease the amount of signal going into
the selected input. Using the “SELECT” encoder to highlight the Gain value allows the value to be changed by the
“ADJUST encoder in 0.2dB steps from -40dB to +20dB. This page will also allow users to change the polarity of the
selected input from normal to reverse. And to mute the selected channel.
Delay
The delay page which controls the amount of delay associated with the input channel selected and is adjustable
from 0 to 998ms. The delay parameter is adjustable in fine steps at low values; the adjustment becomes
progressively coarser as the value increases.
