3.3.3 CobraNet Output Routing
CobraNet output routing includes the following controls:
CobraNet Transmit Bundles
The amplifi er can transmit up to four unique CobraNet Bundles
(TxA, TxB, TxC, TxD). Each Transmit Bundle includes the
follow ing controls and monitor functions:
• Receiver Count: This meter reports the number of CobraNet
nodes actively receiving the Bundle being sourced to the network
by this bundle.
• Transmit Priority: This control adjusts the relative priority for
the particular transmitter. Higher numbers indicate a higher
priority. One may choose to increase the transmitter priority for an
emergency page microphone in a heavily loaded network. The
Transmit Priority object is stored in presets.

CobraNet Transmit Channels
Each CobraNet Bundle can contain up to eight unique digital
audio channels. Each channel is selected at its respective
trans mitter to contain none, 16-, 20- or 24-bit audio sample data.
A total of 32 channels can be transmitted by a single USP/CN at
any one time; however, only 4 channels can be sent on up to four
Bundles. The CobraNet Transmit Channel object is stored in
pre sets.
CTs Multi-Channel Power Amplifi ers
Here are some features of CobraNet Transmit Channels:
• Output Amplifi er Audio: By sampling the actual output
audio of the amplifi er, CobraNet allows remote access and
moni toring of each amplifi er channel at the output of the
ampli fi er! CobraNet extends the "Listen Bus" or foldback
feature found on other PIP modules to any network user, allowing
them to listen to the output of any networked amplifi er from any
loca tion on the network.
• Balanced Audio Inputs: Analog audio entering the Bal anced
Audio Inputs can be converted to digital, and sent onto the
CobraNet network. This provides a very cost-effective means of
CobraNet input.
