Click on the System Info tab on the Navigator screen and then choose Source Streams
to open a window that looks like this:
This list shows all of the WNIP streams available in your system and gives information
about their assigned IP and multicast addresses. You can sort the list by clicking on the
desired column heading; one handy sort is to click on the multicast address heading and
you will see the list of multicast addresses in ascending order. This makes it easy to see
what the first and last addresses are so you can tell what addresses would be safe for an
AES67 device that you’ll be manually assigning.
You’ll also use this list again and again to decide which multicast address you need
to specify an AES67 device to receive. Since AES67 does not support stream discovery
and connection management, you’ll need to manually reassign multicast addresses to
AES67 receiving devices each time you make a routing change (more on this later). In
this example to receive the stream BL54UMIXA you must configure the AES67 device
to receive 239.192.217.144.
Once your PTPv2 clock is running, Navigator is licensed for AES67 and you’ve noted
your WNIP stream multicast addresses you can begin connecting AES67 devices to your
system.
The first step is to decide whether or not you need to use packet timing translation
with your AES67 devices. As noted at the beginning of this Addendum, WNIP uses 1/4ms
packet timing for minimum latency. Most AES67 devices also support 1/4ms packet timing
but some (namely Dante) do not. The best and easiest way to interface an AES67 device
with WNIP is to use 1/4ms packet timing where ever you can. That way these devices
will operate with minimal latency. If you have some AES67 devices that can use 1/4ms
packet timing and some that can’t, use 1/4ms for the devices that support it and 1ms for
the others. You don’t need to make every device run at 1ms just because you have one
that won’t.
