DAS-10 is a 10x1 AES / EBU digital audio switcher. Input and output level has been mixed 75/110Ω and allows the
signal to be converted from balanced to unbalanced format without amplitude and phase distortion as it is achieved
by using transformers. High signal quality is achieved through the development in the SMD technology. Switcher
has automatic signals equalization. It is designed to meet the most demanding requirements for switching signals
in televisions and digital studios. Available in 1RU 19 “chassis. Control may be the front panel or by remote control
SCU-10. Also, the device can be controlled from a computer through a TCP-IP network. Can function independently
or be associated with related switcher for audio-follow-video control.

scans for devices.
Sams Netnder: scan for devices
When the search is completed, a new window will open showing found devices.
NETWORK SETUP
To change the settings, consult your network administrator.
The default IP address is 192.168.0.200. If there is a DHCP server, the device will be assigned a new
address.
If there is a problem with connecting the device, check the rewall and allow UDP port 3040.

before turning on.
If the program NETFINDER does not nd the device on the network, try the following:
- Connect the inserter directly to the computer;
- The computer set with xed IP address, as follows:
IP ADDRESS 192.168.0.15
SUBMASK IP 255.255.255.0
IP GATEWAY left blank;
- Set REPAIR network card, in order to fully accept the new settings (alternatively RELEASE / RENEW
scenario);
- Try NETFINDER;
- The device must be seen;
- Write down the MAC ADDRESS and consult with the network administrator.

The device supports the development of specic software for customer needs, for remote conguration
of software for playout systems, sending specic commands to the device IP address.
Commands are sent in the format:
http://ip_address/get_data?cmd=value
LIST OF COMMANDS:
src - input selection. Enter in the form src=n (n - value from 0-9 representing inputs from 1-10)
ref - send feedback about status of word clock. Enter in form ref=. Feedback is 0 - no reference, 1 -
reference present
EXAMPLE:
http://[ip_adresa]/get_data?src=0
This means: rst input selected
NOTE:
- If you use a web browser for programming, we recommend that it be Mozilla Firefox®, with desabled
options to cache the page.
17. If the “tray” icon of DHCP server has not changed its color when you turn the device, turn the unit off, wait
for a while and turn it on again.
18. Start application NETFINDER.
