Adjusting Input levels

1. Check the source level before it reaches the Network Interface:
⁃ Verify that the networked microphones or other Dante™ sources
are operating at nominal output levels.
⁃ Levels for Microflex Advance
their web application.
2. Adjust the digital gain in the Network Interface web application:
⁃ Use the faders or manually enter a gain value.
⁃ The digital gain adjusts the level of the signal before it reaches the
analog circuitry.
⁃ Set these levels as high as possible without reaching the peak level
(0 dB) on the meter.

Adjusting Output Levels

Access the analog output levels through the web application, by selecting
an output level from the Analog Gain (dB) pull-down menu. Match the output
level from the Network Interface to the input sensitivity on the analog device:
• Line level (0 dB)
• Aux level (-27 dB)
• Microphone level (-45 dB)

ANI4OUT Command Strings

This document can also be found at:
The device is connected via Ethernet to a control system, such as AMX, Crestron or Extron.
Connection: Ethernet (TCP/IP; select "Client" in the AMX/Crestron program)
Port: 2202
Conventions
The device has 4 types of strings:
GET
Finds the status of a parameter. After the AMX/Crestron sends a GET command, the ANI4OUT responds with a REPORT string
SET
Changes the status of a parameter. After the AMX/Crestron sends a SET command, the ANI4OUT will respond with a REPORT string to indicate the new value
of the parameter.
REP
When the ANI4OUT receives a GET or SET command, it will reply with a REPORT command to indicate the status of the parameter. REPORT is also sent by
the ANI4OUT when a parameter is changed on the ANI4OUT or through the GUI.
SAMPLE
Used for metering audio levels.
All messages sent and received are ASCII. Note that the level indicators and gain indicators are also in ASCII

LED Signal and Clipping Indicators
Each analog output channel has a corresponding LED:
Green: Audio signal present
Red: Audio signal is clipping and should be attenuated.
Note: the meters in the web application are not affected by the Analog Gain
(dB) setting.
Pre- and Post-Fader Metering
There are two modes for monitoring so that both the input and output signals
can be monitored separately.
When set to pre-fader, the meter displays the signal level from the source
on the Dante network. If signals are too low or clipping, adjust them at the
source.
When set to post-fader, the meter is affected by the digital gain. It is not af-
fected by the output analog gain setting.
