9.1 Connections
On the rear panel of the m108, the Dante interface module features two gigabit Ethernet ports. One la-
beled PRIMARY and one labeled SECONDARY. This allows the m108 to operate in full redundant mode if
required. When operating on a single non-redundant network then the PRIMARY port should be used.
Refer to the Dante Controller user guide for more information on redundancy.
9.2 Signal Routing
The m108 Dante interface provides 8 channels of output from the ADC and 8 channels of input to the
DAC. Since the m108 DAC is stereo only the user must select which channel pair to monitor. This is done
in the monitor section of the m108 Mixer.
mon-src
and

each can select AUX1-AUX4.
•
AUX1 will be Dante inputs 1-2
•
AUX2 will be Dante inputs 3-4
•
AUX3 will be Dante inputs 5-6
•
AUX4 will be Dante inputs 7-8

Setup
There are menu items in the m108 setup menu for configuring Dante:
•
Setup menu # 1: adc samplerate
•
Setup menu # 2: adc clocksource
•
Setup menu # 3: Dante ext. sync
To enable the Dante interface go to Setup menu # 1: adc samplerate and select "Dante".
This connects the Dante interface to the network and configures the ADC to the last used Dante sample
rate. Sample rate changes must be made from the Dante Controller interface. Selecting any other option
from the adc samplerate menu will turn the Dante interface off.
Setup menu # 3: Dante ext. sync stores the clock source preference for when the m108 is the Dante net-
work clock master. The options are internal, word, and word – 75Ω.
If the "Allow Sync to External" check box is checked in Dante Controller then the clock source for the
m108 will switch to the clock source selected in the dane ext. sync menu. Note that there can only be
one clock master on a Dante network.
Setup menu # 2: adc clocksource menu item will automatically switch to "Dante" when Dante is enabled
in the adc samplerate menu. The options "word", and "word - 75Ω" will be available but "internal" will not
be available as this would result in the m108 clock and the Dante clock being asynchronous. When
Dante is disabled, the adc clocksource will automatically change to "internal".
