8.4.4. Metering of Digital Input Signals
The digital input signals can be visually inspected to ensure that audio signals are reaching the device.
To temporarily assign the 32 front panel level meters to a digital input, open the
INPUT
section and
choose the relevant digital
input
tab.
In the MADI optical and MADI coaxial tabs, two toggle switches can be pushed and held to inspect either
channels 1-32
or
channels 33-64
.
In the AVB input tab, one toggle switch per stream can be pushed and held to inspect the relevant
stream.
This feature is temporary and lasts only while the encoder is pushed. Afterwards, the front
panel level meters will show the level of the analog inputs.
On the web remote, each input port can be opened and level meter indicators will appear above the
channel number.
8.5. Remote Control Overview
The M-1610 Pro can be remote controlled. Remote control is activated by default and is not affected by
preset changes or device lock.
The network controls over HTTP and AVDECC operate simultaneously. Two or more controller instances
are synchronized. The MIDI control can read commands that are embedded into either one of the MADI
signals. Both network and MIDI control can be used at the same time.
The remote control protocols are not protected against malicious use. When activated, the
remote control server allows anyone on the network to make changes to the configuration
of the device. To limit access, secure the network that the device is connected to.
8.5.1. Finding the Device on a Network
The M-1610 Pro has three integrated network adapters (USB 2.0 and dual ethernet).
The adapters can be used, individually or simultaneously, to control the device with HTTP ("web remote").
The web remote control works on any IP-based network, including wireless networks.
The ethernet connection additionally supports AVDECC 1722.1 remote protocol, which requires a
physical connection (cables), but does not require AVB switches. Wireless routers are not supported for
AVDECC.
To enable web remote functionality over HTTP:
1. Open the
remote
tab in the
STATE
section.
2. Ensure that the
HTTP Remote
setting is switched to
ON
.
