When the network scan is compete, Dante Controller opens in Network View.

Receivers
Figure 73. Dante Network view
Receivers, representing Dante device inputs, are on the left side running vertically.
Transmitters, representing Dante device outputs, are along the top running horizontally.
The connection points form a large matrix in the center of the screen.
The name initially shown in the first column is extracted from the Dante interface of the
connected device. The DMP 128 AT expansion inputs are Dante receivers and labelled
EXP_In-01 to EXP_In-56 (or the maximum available from each connected device).
The output names are labelled from Output-01 to Output-08 to mirror the DMP 128
line outputs, and from EXP_Out-01 to EXP_Out-08 that correspond to the DMP 128
expansion outputs and EXP_Out-09 to EXP_Out-16 that correspond to the DMP 128
virtual returns 9 to 16.
Dante provides a way to rename the connected device and to re-label each input and
output (Dante Controller does not automatically use the DMP 128 AT device name).
Follow the setup procedure (see
both names identical or at least as similar as possible to avoid confusing device
names during operation. Inputs and outputs can also be renamed as necessary before
proceeding.
Dante controller naming conventions:
• Device labels follow Domain Name System (DNS) hostname rules. Legal
characters are A-Z, a-z, 0-9, and dash or hyphen (-). Device labels must
begin with a letter.
• Dante Tx and Rx labels can be up to 30 characters in length. Label
comparisons are not case-sensitive; "OUTPUT01" and "output01" are
treated the same. Unicode and non-roman characters are not supported.
• Tx channel labels can use any character except equals (=), period (.), or '@'.
Tx channel labels must be unique on a device but do not need to be unique
on the network. On the network, channel IDs are prefaced with the device
("channel01_DMP128-01", or "channel01_DMP128-07").
• Rx channel labels follow the same rules as Tx channel labels.
