Expansion and AT Inputs Overview

With the Extron Expansion Port (EXP), two EXP enabled devices can be connected for
bidirectional communication of 16 audio channels. When two units are connected, one
unit must be set as the Primary Unit and the other must be set as the Secondary Unit (see
Expansion Bus
AT inputs allow a DMP 128 Plus AT model to receive signal from the audio network.
Network audio routing is done with Dante Controller (see
Figure 91.

Expansion and AT Inputs Processing

The expansion and AT inputs contain two processor blocks in their signal chain:
1.
2.
Expansion and AT Input Automix Block
One automix block is available for each expansion and AT input. This block functions the
same as the mic/line input automix block (see
information on configuring the EXP input automix block).
Expansion and AT Input Pre-Mixer Gain Block
The expansion and AT input pre-mixer gain block functions the same as the mic/line input
pre-mixer gain block (see
configuring the virtual return pre-mixer gain block).

Mix-Points

DSP Configurator contains twelve mix matrices that connect all inputs and outputs
(see figure 92
Each input is connected to a mix-point for the signal to be routed to an output. In general,
mix levels are set relative to each other, achieving a blend of input signals at an optimal
output level, close to, but not exceeding 0 dBFS at the output.
NOTE: In order for mix-points to appear in the workspace, the input group sending
on page 93). This synchronizes the sampling clocks of the two units.
