User Manual for ALP-DANTE
NOTE
Even if you set values suited for your network, various factors may cause some noises. If a value
other than the current setting is selected a message will be displayed warning the user that the
effect of changing the latency is that any existing audio routing to the device will be temporarily
suspended, resulting in some loss of audio data. If you wish to make the change, select "Yes"
button; otherwise select No.
Switch and redundant modes
The selection of the switch mode or redundant mode is available from the "Device view" by
selecting the "Network configuration" tab.
AES67 compatibility mode
AES67 streams can be exchanged between the ALP-DANTE and AES67 devices.
The parameters of the AES67 compatible mode are:
SAP (Session Announcement Protocol) must be supported.
●
This is one of four device discovery methods referenced in the AES67 standard. Check if
the transmitting non-Dante AES67 device supports SAP. Otherwise Dante Controller
cannot discover the audio flows coming from the device. Dante devices support SAP if
their AES67 mode is enabled. Even if the non-Dante AES67 device does not directly
support SAP, the vendor may have a software conversion tool available, providing wider
compatibility.
Multicast flow only (unicast is not supported yet).
●
Up to 8 channels per flow.
●
Multicast IP addresses must be in the range of 239.69.0.0 - 239.69.255.255/16.
●
In addition, the same network address range must be specified for other AES67
