Główne cechy:
- 64-channel 48 kHz, bi-directional audio interface for Dante IP networks.
- Low-latency 24-bit signal transmission with sample-accurate synchronization.
- Interfacing with standard 100 Mbit/s or Gigabit network infrastructure with DSCP-based QoS.
- Mieszaneample and bit rates can coexist on the same Dante network.
- WING remote control possible on the same network, using the integrated Ethernet switch.
Konfiguracja i instalacja
- Power Off WING Console: Before beginning, ensure your Behringer WING digital mixing console is completely powered off and disconnected from the main power supply.
- Locate Expansion Slot: Refer to your WING console's user manual to identify the expansion card slot.
- Insert WING-DANTE Card: Carefully align the WING-DANTE card with the expansion slot. Gently push the card into the slot until it is firmly seated. Do not force the card.
- Karta bezpieczna: If your WING console has securing mechanisms for expansion cards (e.g., screws or latches), ensure the WING-DANTE card is properly secured.
- Podłącz kable sieciowe: Connect standard Ethernet cables from your Dante network to the 'PRIMARY' and 'SECONDARY' ports on the WING-DANTE card. For redundant operation, connect both. For non-redundant, connect to 'PRIMARY'.
- Power On WING Console: Reconnect the WING console to the main power supply and power it on. The console should detect the new WING-DANTE card.
- Aktualizacja oprogramowania sprzętowego (jeśli konieczna): Sprawdź Behringera website for any firmware updates required for the WING console or the WING-DANTE card to ensure optimal compatibility and performance.
For detailed instructions on configuring Dante networks, refer to the Audinate Dante documentation and software (Dante Controller).
Działanie
Dante Network Configuration:
The WING-DANTE card integrates seamlessly with the Dante ecosystem. Configuration is primarily managed using Audinate's Dante Kontroler software, available for Windows and macOS.
- Install Dante Controller: Download and install the latest version of Dante Controller from the Audinate webStrona (Www.audinate.com).
- Połączenie internetowe: Ensure your computer running Dante Controller is connected to the same network as your WING-DANTE card.
- Rozpoznawanie urządzenia: Open Dante Controller. Your WING console with the WING-DANTE card should appear as a recognized Dante device.
- Trasowanie dźwięku: Use Dante Controller to establish audio routes between the WING-DANTE card (representing your WING console's inputs/outputs) and other Dante-enabled devices on your network.
- Synchronizacja zegara: Dante automatically manages clock synchronization. Ensure one device is designated as the master clock, or allow Dante to automatically select one.
- Adresowanie IP: By default, Dante devices use Automatic Private IP Addressing (APIPA). For larger or more complex networks, you may configure static IP addresses or use DHCP.
Wskaźniki stanu:
The WING-DANTE card features LEDs next to each Ethernet port:
- ACT (Activity) LED: Flashes to indicate network data activity.
- LINK 1G (Link/Speed) LED:
- Zielony (stały): Indicates a 1 Gigabit Ethernet link.
- Pomarańczowy (stały): Indicates a 100 Megabit Ethernet link.
- Wyłączony: Nie wykryto połączenia sieciowego.
Konserwacja
- Czyszczenie: Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the exterior of the WING-DANTE card. Do not use abrasive cleaners, solvents, or waxes.
- Aktualizacje oprogramowania układowego: Okresowo sprawdzaj Behringer website for new firmware versions for both the WING console and the WING-DANTE card. Keeping firmware updated ensures optimal performance, compatibility, and access to new features.
