1. Open an M-32 DA Pro web remote in a browser

2. Press the 

identify

 

 icon. The front panel level meters of the controlled device will show an

animation.

Depending on the controller, the animation may persist infinitely or stop after a short
period of time.

5.2. Changing the Device Name

A custom name can be assigned to the device. It is used to identify the AVB entity with AVDECC
controllers. It also allows the access to the web remote without using the IP address on Apple macOS™
computers.

The device name is stored to and recalled from 

presets

. It is not affected by firmware

updates.

Changing the device name is only possible via web remote or AVDECC controller.

To change the device name:

1. Connect the device by USB or network cable and open the web remote.

Section 8.5.1, “Finding the Device on a Network”

2. Open the 

 

Settings

 in the web remote.

3. Type a new name into the text field and press 

Save

. The name is immediately applied.

5.3. AVB Stream Size

In an AVB network, a 

stream

 describes a connection between a 

talker

 and one or more 

listeners

. It

consists of a fixed number of audio channels at a fixed sample rate. Once a stream is connected, each
AVB switch along its way ensures that the audio channels can pass in time, with a higher priority than
other network traffic.

The M-32 DA Pro supports a total of 

four streams

. Each stream can have a size of 

4, 8, 12, and 16

channels

. The most common stream size is 8 Channels.

When using the AVB features of Apple macOS™, ensure that all streams have a size of 8
channels 

before

 acquiring the M-32 DA Pro.

5.4. AVB Network Latency

All devices in an AVB network share the same time. This allows the sending device (

talker

) to specify

the precise point of time when its audio samples should be played out at the receiver side (

listener

).

This is achieved by adding an 

offset

 to the current time and sending the resulting timestamp with each

sample transmitted. The timestamp is called "presentation time" and has nanosecond precision. For
comparison, a single sample at 48 kHz has a duration of over 20800 ns.
