Devices
The
following
example
illustrates
two
Vi1
consoles
‘House’
and
‘Monitor’.
Audio
inputs
are
sent
to
the
monitor
console,
these
can
be
connected
directly
to
the
console
or
via
a
stagebox
attached
via
a
MADI
card
to
the
monitor
console.
A
direct
output
from
each
input
of
the
monitor
console
feeds
the
FOH
console
which
is
patched
to
receive
audio
from
the
Dante
option
card.
The
FOH
console
mix
is
returned
to
two
spare
channels
of
the
monitor
console
and
the
direct
outputs
of
those
inputs
are
in
turn
patched
to
the
system
outputs;
once
again
these
can
be
directly
on
the
console
or
attached
via
a
MADI
card
to
the
monitor
console.
The
link
between
the
Dante
cards
may
be
via
a
switch
as
shown
with
a
solid
green
line
or
direct
from
card
to
card
as
shown
by
the
dotted
green
line.
NOTE
:
Once
configured
the
PC
is
not
required.
NOTE
:
Dante
may
operate
in
redundant
mode,
this
is
not
shown
for
simplicity.
