Networking ULX-D Receivers

ULX-D Dual and Quad receivers feature a Dante dual-port network interface. Dante technology provides an integrated solution
to distribute digital audio, manage control signals, and carry Shure Control (WWB and AMX/Crestron) signals. Dante uses
standard IP over Ethernet and safely coexists on the same network as IT and control data. Selectable Dante networking modes
route port signals for flexible network set up.

Network Control Software

You can remotely manage and monitor your ULX­D receivers using Wireless Workbench and monitor digital audio routing us­
ing the Dante Controller. Signals for AMX and Crestron controllers are carried on the same network as Shure Control.
Shure Control
Wireless Workbench (WWB) software provides comprehensive control for wireless audio systems. Wireless Workbench en­
ables live remote adjustments to networked receivers for real-time changes to gain, frequency, RF power, and control locks. A
familiar channel strip interface displays audio meters, transmitter parameters, frequency settings and network status.
Wireless Workbench is available for Windows or Mac and can be downloaded at: www.shure.com/wwb
Dante
The Dante controller is a free software program created by Audinate to configure and manage a network of Dante enabled
devices. Use the controller to create audio routes between networked components and to monitor the status of online devices.

Dante Controller and Lock Settings
Version 2.4.X introduces support for Dante Device Lock for ULXD4D and ULXD4Q. Dante Device Lock is a feature of Dante
Controller that allows you to lock and unlock supported Dante devices using a 4-digit PIN (Personal Identification Number).
When a device has a Dante lock turned on, Dante audio will continue to flow according to existing subscriptions, but its sub­
scriptions and settings can't be controlled or configured.
If you forget your Dante Device Lock PIN, see the Device Lock section of the Dante Controller User Guide for instructions on
how to proceed.
Dante Domain Manager
Version 2.4.X introduces support for Dante Domain Manager (DDM) for ULXD4D and ULXD4Q. DDM is network management
software that enables user authentication, role based security, and audit capabilities for Dante networks and Dante-enabled
products.
Considerations for Shure devices controlled by DDM:
• When you add Shure devices to a Dante domain, leave the local controller access setting in Read Write. Otherwise, ac­
cess to Dante settings, device factory reset, and device firmware updates will be disabled.
• When a device is managed by a Dante Domain and the Dante Domain is disconnected, access to Dante settings, device
factory reset and device firmware updates will be disabled. When a device reconnects to the Dante Domain, it follows the
policy set for it in the Dante Domain.
See the Dante Domain Manager User Guide for more information.
