Quick Start Guide
Once you have unpacked your PD Dante you can follow this quick guide to get you started
using it.
Firstly, you will need to down load and install a copy of Dante Controller onto your PC/Mac
You can download this from
https://www.audinate.com/products/software/dante-controller
Next plug your PD Dante into your network with an RJ45 patch lead
If you have plugged into a PoE enabled router/port you will see the splash screen on the PD
Dante appear after a couple of seconds
If you do not have a PoE port, then you will need to plug in the supplied Plug Top Supply
and connect it to the PD Dante with the supplied USB cable. Note the USB cable supplied is
relatively short at 500mm this is due to the current draw of the PD Dante, longer cables may
work but we do not guarantee they will
After the PD Dante has booted you will be presented with the main screen
If you have a valid network connection the status light in the top left side of the screen next to
the P (primary) will turn green
At this point start Dante Controller on your PC/Mac and you will see your PD Dante appear
in the list of devices
You will then be able to select sources and destinations for your PD Dante

Once you have done this you will be able to start using your PD Dante via the touch screen
