Dante Controller software. Routing Channels Any active audio resource in a Dante network may be routed to the D400-Dante A-Net Distributor. Routing channels requires the Dante Controller software, available from the Audinate website (www.audinate. com). It can be run on either Mac or PC computers. Complete documentation for the software is available from Audinate. -
Page 32: Clock Status
The main window of the Dante Controller software is essentially an X/Y grid that allows a channel from one Dante device to be routed to another. Devices that transmit are shown horizontally across the top of the grid; receiving devices are in the vertical column along the side. Open or close any device’s Transmit or Receive panel by clicking the plus or minus sign (+/-) next to its name. -

Page 37: Personal Mixing Systems
Personal Mixers (A360, A320, A-16II or A-16R) can be connected per D400 or D400- Dante. This section shows some typical personal mixing system configurations. Connecting Personal Mixers To connect a Personal Mixer to the D400 or D400-Dante: • Connect a Cat-5e cable from one of the eight powered A-Net ports on the A-Net Distributor to the A-N port on the Personal Mixer. -
Page 38: 16-Channel Personal Mixing Systems
Unshielded Cat-5e (or better) cable may be used on all other connections. The A-Net outputs on the D400 and D400-Dante can be connected to any A-Net compatible device, including other A-Net distributors, allowing flexible routing and system configurations as well as virtually unlimited system expansion. -
Page 39: About A-Net Offset Base Slot
Set the Base Slot to “1” for 16-channel systems. Stereo Links The D400 and D400-Dante have a set of front-panel Stereo Link DIP switches that are capable of linking adjacent odd/even channel pairs in the A-Net stream. You have the option of using the stereo link switches on the network’s input device (analog input module or digital console card) or on the D400. - Page 40 32 Channels - Analog & Digital Inputs This hybrid system uses one digital console card plus one analog AN-16/i v.2 Input Module to provide up to 32 inputs to the network when connected to the A-Net version of the D400. The console card provides slots 1-16 of the network;...
- Page 41 32-64 Channels - Analog Inputs Up to four analog input devices may be connected to a D400 by cascading the A-Net ports on the input devices. The first input device in the system (Input Module 1 in the diagrams) can be substituted with an original AN-16/i Input Module, AN-16/i-M Mic Input Module, or a digital console card.
