The Audio I/O Menu

This menu gives access to the various settings related to audio into and out of the device.
5.1 Audio Input Source
The Audio Input Source item chooses which audio input is encoded and transmitted to a remote codec. You must choose
between the Analog XLR, AES/EBU XLR, and Livewire for the input (transmit) audio.
If you decide to use the Livewire input, you will also need to choose a Livewire input stream in the Setup>Network>Live-
wire menu. Like the XLR outputs, the Livewire output is always active, provided that a Livewire source number is
configured on the Livewire setup page. To disable Livewire outputs, set the Z/IP ONE's source number to 0.
In addition to selecting the audio source to transmit, this menu allows you to configure your Z/IP ONE for redundant
audio inputs, to help protect against failures. To use this feature, select either the AES/EBU + failover or Livewire + failover
option.
When using Livewire + failover, the Z/IP ONE will prefer Livewire audio if it is available. If it is not, for whatever reason,
the Z/IP ONE will use the AES/EBU input for its transmit audio. If the AES/EBU stream is unavailable, it will use the
Analog inputs. The Z/IP ONE will also revert back to a more preferred audio source when the problem is cleared and the
preferred stream has been stable for some time.
When using the AES/EBU + failover option, the Z/IP ONE's behavior is as above, except it will never use Livewire for the
audio input.
