Receiver and Transmitter Names

In addition to renaming a device, individual transmitter and receiver channels can be
renamed in Dante Controller. Rename transmitter and receiver channels to reflect the
location of the device or the purpose of the transmitter or receiver. Ensure transmitter and
receiver channels are renamed before making audio connections between devices. Refer to
Renaming a Receiver or Transmitter

Dante Controller Naming Conventions

Device names follow Domain Name System (DNS) hostname rules. Legal characters are
•
A-Z, a-z, 0-9, and hyphen (-). Names must begin with a letter and cannot end with a
hyphen (-).
• Dante Tx and Rx channel names (also known as labels) can be up to 31 characters
in length. Label names are not case-sensitive. For example, "ANALOG OUT-1" and
"analog out-1" are recognized as the same name. Unicode and non-roman
characters are not supported.
Tx and Rx channel labels can use any character except equals (=), period (.), or @.
•
Tx and Rx channel labels must be unique on a device but do not need to be unique on
•
the network.
