Configuration Of The Unit With The Dante Controller - Monacor AKB-30DT/DSP Instruction Manual

5.2 Configuration of the unit with the Dante Controller

1) Start the Dante Controller .
2) Wait for the desired Dante transmitter and the AKB-30DT/ DSP to
appear in the matrix (under "Dante Receivers") .
Note: If a unit fails to appear, the reason may be that
– the corresponding unit has not been switched on
– the unit is in a different subnet
– the unit is not able to synchronize with the other Dante units .
However, if one of the two last-mentioned reasons applies, the Dante unit
should at least appear under the tab "Device Info" or "Clock Status" in the
network view . A fast solution of this problem may be to switch the unit off
and on or to disconnect and re-establish the connection to the network
switch . For further information please refer to the user manual of the Dante
Controller from Audinate .
3) In the menu bar of the Dante Controller, select "Device/Device
View" or use the shortcut Ctrl+D . The Device View window will
open .
4) Select the AKB-30DT/ DSP in the bar of the drop-down menu ap-
pearing beneath the menu bar .
5) The third bar can be used to indicate information on the unit and
to make settings . Select the tab "Device Config" (refer to fig . 3) .
6) Adjust the "Sample Rate" to the desired Dante transmitter or set a
different common sample rate for both units, if required .
7) In the field "Rename Device", the name used for the unit in the
Dante network can be changed (e . g . to a specific name referring
to the place of installation) . Click "Apply" to confirm the change .
