2. In the Dante network, route audio to and from the 8700i.
A Dante device has a number of channels associated with it. These are either
transmit (Tx) or receive (Rx) channels. Your Optimod provides two Dante stereo
transmit channels and two stereo receive channels. Receive channels and devices
are listed down the left side of the grid in the Dante Controller software. Trans-
mit channels and devices are listed along the top of the grid.
Transmit channels are advertised on the network. A receiver uses this advertise-
ment to establish a subscription to the channel. A transmit channel can be sent
to multiple receivers using unicast or multicast.
Receive channels are connected to transmit channels via a subscription. Each re-
ceive channel will receive audio over the network from at most one transmit
channel.
The 8700i’s Dante inputs are:

Channel 1 = DANTE 1 LEFT INPUT

Channel 2 = DANTE 1 RIGHT INPUT

Channel 3 = DANTE 2 LEFT INPUT

Channel 4 = DANTE 2 RIGHT INPUT
In your 8700i, these appear as inputs in the I

The 8700i’s Dante outputs are:

Channel 1 = DANTE 1 LEFT OUTPUT

Channel 2 = DANTE 1 RIGHT OUTPUT

Channel 3 = DANTE 2 LEFT OUTPUT

Channel 4 = DANTE 2 RIGHT OUTPUT
In your 8700i, these appear as outputs in the I

You can set the sample rate of the Optimod’s Dante output via the D

tab in the Dante Controller software. You must set the sample rate to
match the rate of the Dante network device receiving the Optimod’s output.
3. Configure the 8700i’s Dante inputs and outputs.
For a detailed discussion of the functions of these controls (which are analogous
to the controls for the other Optimod inputs and outputs), refer to
Analog and
Digital I/O Setup starting on page 2-27.
You can perform this step from the 8700i’s front panel or from 8700i PC Remote.
The instructions below are for the front panel.
Unlike the sample rate of the Optimod’s AES3 outputs, the Optimod’s GUI cannot
control the sample rate of its Dante output. Instead. 44.1 kHz and 48 kHz are
both suitable; choose the one that matches the setup of the rest of your trans-
mission facility. Your Optimod will automatically detect the network sample rate
and configure its Dante inputs and outputs to match it, applying sample rate
conversion if necessary.
