MODEL 207
eSPORTS CONSOLE
Headset A connector, will flash once in red to
indicate that it is functioning. The green and
red LEDs within the main and talkback push-
button switches will also light in a short test
sequence. The lighting of the various LEDs
will indicate that the application firmware
(embedded software) has started. Once that
sequence has completed and the Dante
connection has been established full opera-
tion will begin. The various LEDs will then
become operational, displaying the status
of their designated functions.
How to Identify a Specific
Model 207
Functions within the Dante Controller and
STcontroller software applications allow a
specific Model 207 unit to be identified. Each
application provides an “eyeball” icon that
when clicked will activate the Identify func-
tion. When Identify is selected it will send a
command to a specific Model 207 unit. On
that unit both the main and talkback buttons’
red and green LEDs (which together ap-
pear orange) will “flash” approximately eight
times; the actual on/off status of the buttons
will not change. In addition, the SYS and
SYNC status LEDs, located directly below
the etherCON RJ45 connector on the back
panel, will slowly flash green. After a few
seconds the LED identification pattern will
cease and normal Model 207 button LED
and Dante status LED operation will resume.
Ethernet and Dante Status
LEDs
Three status LEDs are located below the
etherCON RJ45 connector on the Model
207’s back panel. The LINK ACT LED will
light green whenever an active connection
to a 100 Mb/s Ethernet network has been
established. It will then flash in response to
all Ethernet data packet activity. The SYS
Operation
At this point all connections and configura-
tion steps should have been completed and
everything should be ready for Model 207
operation to commence. An Ethernet con-
nection with Power-over-Ethernet (PoE)
capability should have been made. A head-
set or earbuds with microphone should have
been interfaced using either the Headset
A or Headset B connector. In most cases a
source of analog audio will have been con-
nected to the stereo line input jack.
The Model 207’s Dante configuration set-
tings should have been selected using the
Dante Controller software application. In this
way the unit’s four Dante audio output chan-
nels (Dante transmitter channels) and four
Dante audio input channels (Dante receiver
channels) should have been routed, by way
of Dante “subscriptions,” to the receiver and
transmitter channels on associated Dante-
enabled equipment. Using the Studio Tech-
nologies’ STcontroller software application,
the Model 207’s configuration should have
been selected to meet the needs of the
specific application.
Initial Operation
The Model 207 will start to function as soon
as a Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) power
source is connected. However, it may take
20 to 30 seconds for full operation to com-
mence. Upon initial power up the three sta-
tus LEDs, located on the back panel below
the RJ45 jack, will begin to light as network
and Dante connections are established.
The compressor (COMP) LED, adjacent to
the Headset A connector, may or may not
flash momentarily. The signal present/peak
(SIG/PK) LEDs, associated with the stereo
line input, will light green and red as part
of the power-up test sequence. The micro-
phone power LED, located adjacent to the
