2. Connection
For connection to a Dante™ network, connect the RJ45 socket, with a Cat 5 or Cat 6 network
cable, to an Ethernet Switch, accepting a minimum 100 Mbit/s Fast Ethernet link speed.
The connection is also used to power the speaker via the network using PoE (Power over
Ethernet) technology. A PoE switch or PoE injector must therefore be used. To achieve full
power, a PoE power supply according to the IEEE 802.3at-2009 «PoE+» standard must be
used.
3. Setting up a DanteTM network
1) Start the Dante Controller software.
2) Wait until the devices visible on the network appear in the software matrix.
Note: If a device does not appear, there are several possible reasons, including:
- the device is not powered on / powered up
- the device is in another subnetwork
- the device cannot be synchronized with other Dante™ devices
For either of the last two reasons, the Dante™ device must at least be visible in the Network
View under the «Device Info» or «Clock Status» tab. Stopping and then restarting the speaker
could be a quick x to the problem. Additional information can be found in the Audinate
Dante Controller manual.
3) From the Dante™ Controller menu bar, select «Device / Device View» or press the Ctrl+D
key combination. The «Device View» window will appear.
4) From the drop-down menu below the menu bar, select the speaker to be congured.
5) In the third «status» tab, various information about the device is available.
6) Click the «Device Cong» tab. If necessary, adapt the «Sample Rate» to that used in the
Dante™ network (all devices must have the same sample rate to work together).
7) In the «Rename Device» eld, it is possible to modify the name used for the device in
the Dante network, for better identication. Conrm any changes by pressing the «Apply»
button.
8) From the «Network Cong» tab you can, if necessary, change the network settings for the
Dante™ interface of the speaker.
