Page 19: Device Not Showing Up In Dante Controller
Device not showing up in Dante Controller If your Dante device does not show up in Dante Controller then the most likely issue is that the device’s IP Address is not appropriate for your network. A) It maybe that the device is set to obtain an IP address automatically using DHCP (this is the default configuration) and your network is setup for fixed IP addresses only and does not have a DHCP server. -
Page 20: Aes67 Mode
AES67 and therefore the Beatrice can be set to AES67 mode for interaction with other AES67 devices. Please note however that Glensound are relying on Audinate’s AES67 interface and are unfortunately not able to provide full AES67 support for the unit. AES67 support should be sought directly from Audinate. -
