  • Page 3: General Description

    A breakthrough in wireless audio quality, Shure digital processing enables ULX-D to deliver the purest reproduction of source material ever available in a wireless system, with a wide selection of trusted Shure microphones to choose from. Extended 20 Hz – 20 kHz frequency range and flat response captures every detail with clarity, presence, and incredibly accurate low end and transient response.

  • Page 12 When updating receiver firmware, update transmitters to the same firmware version to ensure consistent operation. The firmware of all ULX-D devices has the form of MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH (e.g., 1.2.14). At a minimum, all ULX-D devices on the network (including transmitters), must have the same MAJOR and MINOR firmware version numbers (e.g., 1.2.x).

  • Page 20 Assigning Network Device IDs for Shure Control and Dante Control When using the receiver in a network with Shure Control (WWB6) and a Dante Controller, two Device IDs are required: one for Shure Control and one for Dante Control. Device IDs are used to identify devices on the network and for creating Dante digital audio routes.
  • Page 21 In order for audio to flow in the network, audio routes (subscriptions) must be configured between transmitters and receivers. Note: ULX-D receivers will appear in the Dante controller as a Transmitter. Devices that have both inputs and outputs commonly appear as both transmitters and receivers.
  • Page 22 1. Start WWB6 software and use Inventory view to see devices connected to the network. 2. If not, find the IP address from one of the devices on the network (such as a ULX-D receiver) and see if you can ping it from the computer running WWB6.

At a minimum, all ULX-D devices on the network (including transmitters), must have the same MAJOR and MINOR firmware version numbers (e.g., 1.2.x).
  • Page 101 Encryption Use a shielded coaxial cable to connect the RF cascade ports from the first ULX-D features Advanced Encryption Standard (AES-256) to ensure that receiver to the antenna inputs of the second receiver. only the receiver that is keyed to the transmitter can monitor the audio content.

  • Page 103 Network Control Software The ULX-D receivers can be controlled by Shure Control (WWB6) for remote management and monitoring and the Dante Controller to manage digital audio routing. Signals for AMX and Crestron controllers are carried on the same network as Shure Control.

  • Page 108 Assigning Network Device IDs for Shure Control and Dante Control When using the receiver in a network with Shure Control (WWB6) and a Dante Controller, two Device IDs are required: one for Shure Control and one for Dante Control. Device IDs are used to identify devices on the network and for creating Dante digital audio routes.
  • Page 109 In order for audio to flow in the network, audio routes (subscriptions) must be configured between transmitters and receivers. Note: ULX-D receivers will appear in the Dante controller as a Transmitter. Devices that have both inputs and outputs commonly appear as both transmitters and receivers.
  • Page 110 1. Start WWB6 software and use Inventory view to see devices connected to the network. 2. If not, find the IP address from one of the devices on the network (such as a ULX-D receiver) and see if you can ping it from the computer running WWB6.
