Configuring the AES67 Senders
This chapter outlines the steps required for configuring the AES67 sender streams on the NWE-IP. Each sender
stream can be configured independently.
Overview
From DashBoard you specify which audio streams will transmit the encoded audio data to specific NWE-IP
Watermark Encoder channels. The following steps are required:
1. Configure the AES67 Sender global settings.
2. Configure the Network Stream groups, including the number of channels in each
3. Map the audio channels to specific Watermark Encoder channels.
Configuring the Global AES67 Sender Settings
There are two settings that impact all AES67 sender streams on the NWE-IP: the default number of (audio)
channels in each stream, and how to process the AES67 timestamps. These settings are located on the Device Setup
tab in the AES67 Sender interface.
To configure the global settings for all AES67 sender streams
1. Display the AES67 Sender interface in DashBoard as outlined in “ To display the NWE-IP interfaces in
DashBoard ” on page 29.
2. Select the Device Setup tab.
3. Use the Default # of Channels field to specify the maximum number of audio channels available to map for
any network stream group for the AES67 Sender.
4. Specify how to process the AES67 timestamps by selecting an option in the AES67 Timestamp area. Choose
from the following:
•
Conception Timestamp — The AES67 data will include the timestamp that was provided when the
NWE-IP received it.
• Processed Timestamp — The NWE-IP will include an updated timestamp based on the PTP Grandmaster
clock.
