DANTE LEADER CLOCK
Menu Text and Links
The following provides details on some of the text
and links that are presented on the Model 5401A’s
webpages.
Device Name:
In the upper-right corner of each Model
5401A webpage is the Dante device name. This name
is unique to each device in a Dante deployment and is
used as part of the Dante subscription (channel rout-
ing) process. The name can be changed from within
the Dante Controller application.
Identify Device Link:
In the upper-right corner of
each webpage, directly below the device name, is
a link called Identify Device. Clicking on it will cause
the Dante identify action to commence on the specific
Model 5401A. The action will consist of the front-panel
display’s green backlight flashing five times. This
command will help confirm that the web server on the
desired Model 5401A is being accessed.
Company Name Link:
On the bottom of each web-
page is a link with the title Studio Technologies, Inc.
Clicking on this link will cause the browser to open the
Home webpage of the Studio Technologies website.
Log Out Link;
In the upper-right corner of most of
the Configuration menu webpages is a link called
Log Out. It will cause the Model 5401A’s web server
to end the session, logging out the user and returning
to the Home menu. To again access the configuration
webpages requires that the user click on the Login tab
and provide a valid user name and password.
Operation
Now that the Model 5401A is installed and configured
it’s ready for use. The unit is designed for continuous,
unattended operation. However, there are a number
of nuances in the unit’s operation. This may make it
worthwhile for personnel to spend some time review-
ing this section.
Upon application of AC mains or DC power, the Model
5401A will go through a power-up sequence. The eight
bi-color LEDs on the Model 5401A’s front panel will
light green, then light red in a confirmation sequence.
The unit’s graphics display will show the Studio Tech-
nologies logo graphics image, followed by a menu
page that shows the product name (Model 5401A)
and the Dante name. Then the version number of the
Main MCU firmware will display. After a few seconds
the screen saver mode, detailed later in this section,
will begin operation.
Upon power being applied the green LED adjacent to
the USB receptacle on the back panel will flash once
to indicate that its associated circuitry is performing
correctly. Also, upon power being applied to the Model
5401A the LEDs on the back panel associated with
the unit’s three Ethernet RJ45 jacks will briefly flash
as a functional test.
After the Model 5401A has completed its power-up
sequences the unit will begin operation. The eight
front-panel LEDs will reflect the real-time status of
the unit’s major functions. The front-panel display will
allow the viewing of over 20 menu pages showing
status and configuration conditions. In addition, using
the front-panel pushbutton switches some of the unit’s
configuration settings can be revised as required.
The following paragraphs will detail the operation of
the front-panel LEDs.
Power LEDs
Two LEDs indicate the presence of incoming AC
mains and nominal 12 volts DC power. They are
labeled AC and DC and can light green or red. When
a source of AC mains power is connected the AC
LED will light green. (This is actually in response to
12 volts DC that is being generated by the internally
located AC mains input/12 volts DC output power sup-
ply.) The LED labeled DC will light green whenever
a connected DC source exceeds approximately 10
volts. The DC LED will light red when the DC input
is between approximately 9 and 10 volts, indicating
a low-voltage condition. Once the DC input is less
than approximately 9 volts the DC LED will not light
and the Model 5401A will no longer operate from the
DC source.
Network LEDs
Three LEDs provide status indications related to the
Model 5401A’s three Ethernet network interfaces. Two
of the LEDs are associated with the Model 5401A’s
Dante primary and Dante secondary Ethernet ports.
They are labeled PRI and SEC. The third LED, labeled
MGMT, is associated with the unit’s management
Ethernet port. The way in which the three Ethernet
interfaces and their associated status LEDs function
