Dante-related Terms

Ultimo (ULT/UXT) This is a Dante module for small models. The DZR-D and the DXS-XLF-D use the 2-in/2-out Ultimo module.
Dante Device Lock This is a lock function that prevents Dante settings from being changed. Set this in Dante Controller.
Daisy Chain A daisy chain is a wiring scheme in which multiple devices are connected together in sequence. Also referred to as a switched connection.
The DZR-D and DXS-XLF-D contain an internal L2 switch, and the two Dante jacks are primary connectors that can be linked in a daisy chain connection. This con-
nection cannot be used in a redundant (secondary) network.
Latency This is a time setting that affects audio signal buffering. This setting is dependent on the Dante device and the number of network switch hops present. As more hops
increase the transmission delay, setting too low a latency may cause the audio transmission to lag, resulting in skips in the audio. Increasing the latency is safer, but
also results in a larger delay. The minimum value for the Ultimo module is 1 ms. If two devices with different latency settings are patched together, the slower latency
time setting will be applied.
UNIT ID Sets an ID so that connected devices recognize individual DZR-D and DXS-XLF-D devices. This enables the transmitting and receiving of audio signals over a Dante
network, and the use of a remote controller. Avoid using the same ID for the same model devices on the same network.
Device Label This is used to identify Dante devices on a Dante network. Under normal circumstances, the Dante device receiving the transmission identifies the Dante device
sending the transmission using its Device Label.
By default, Yamaha devices are identified as:
Y### - Yamaha - Model name - Last six digits of the MAC address
(Where ### is three-digit hexadecimal representing the UNIT ID.)
E.g.) Y001-Yamaha-DXS15XLF-D-******
When setting this on this product, up to 12 characters can be used, not including the initial five characters (Y###-) and the last 7 characters (-******).
When setting this on Dante Controller, though all characters can be input, the initial five characters will revert back to their original Y###- when restarting this product.
To use the characters you input, keep using the initial five characters (Y###-) without changing, and set other characters as desired. This enables characters other
than the initial five characters (Y###-) to appear in the LABEL
characters don't appear in the LABEL.
In a system combining this product with CL series or QL series devices, should a malfunctioning unit be replaced, setting the same UNIT ID as the UNIT ID of the
original unit to the replaced unit enables automatic restoring of the original patches.
(page 24). In this case, if the last six characters are matched to the MAC address of this product, these
