Sample Rate
set button: After determine the required sample rate with DIP switch 1 and 2, long-press
the set button for longer than 2 seconds or until a SET shown on meter panel, the NBB-1616 set the
audio sample rate accordingly. You can check whether the sample rate set expectedly by observing the
192KHz/96KHz/48KHz status LEDs on the front panel.
Note:
The NBB-1616 breakbox also supports the sample rate in multiple of 44.1KHz (i.e.,
88.2KHz and 176.4KHz). However, for these rate setting, you need to set it through Dante
Controller software instead. Also, the corresponding status LED for sample rate on the front
panel flashes to notify you that the audio sample rate is synchronized in the multiple of
44.1KHz, instead of 48KHz.
There are currently only 3 DIP switches programmed in NBB-1616. The first two are used for sample rate
setting as mentioned above. The DIP switch 3 is programmed to turn off the meter functionality and extinguish
all the meter LEDs.
Note:
On some NBB-1616s, the 4th DIP switch may be programmed to restrict the device
browsing to UNiKA products only during P2P pairing process. Enable the feature can prevent the
NBB-1616 to pair to a product manufactured by the company other than UNiKA during the
automatic pairing process.
Note:
All the function of above three buttons can be disabled when the device is enrolled in a
domain through DDM (Dante Domain Manager). To enable the function capabilities of these three
buttons, you have to enable the Read/Write local controller access in the device detail page in DDM
control interface. You also need to particularly assign operator to the remote controller role to
enable P2P Pairing button.
Dante Device Name:
Every Dante-enabled device has a device name so that the user can identify it with the
friendly name instead of always-changing network IP address. The device name must be
unique and can't conflict with any name of the devices in the same network. Every
NBB-1616 device is shipped with a default device name in the form UNiKA-xxxxxx,
where the xxxxxx is the suffix of the MAC address of the particular NBB-1616. On the
rear panel of NBB-1616, you can find its default device name on a tag above the device
series number. User can change the device name to whatever he like with the Dante
Controller software or Dante-enabled digital console in the same network.
