Figure 4-28: Analog Iso-Float Status Screen

The ANALOG ISO-FLOAT STATUS window shows you the current state of the device hardware and allows

you to make changes to the grounding state of each analog converter card.

After closing the ANALOG ISO-FLOAT STATUS pop-up window, return to the Main page by tapping the

HOME button.

4.3.6 Dante

Dante audio networking technology from Audinate provides a hassle-free digital audio networking solution for

Dante-enabled Lake devices providing reliable, sample-accurate, low-latency audio distribution over Ethernet.

Dante provides a reliable, digital-audio networking system with complete exibility, ease of use, and

cost-effectiveness. With innovative features such as Zen

™

, Dante-enabled Lake devices automatically nd

each other and also allow any Dante audio channel on the network to be routed to the input of one or more

devices.

Dante can be easily integrated into an existing network, sharing the system with normal data trafc. Dante

also offers a virtual sound card feature for audio recording, processing or playback using computer-based

programs. This feature is enabled by plugging into the standard Ethernet port on a PC; no external boxes or

sound cards are required.

On Dante-enabled Lake devices no additional hardware is required; a single Ethernet connection can

transmit all audio and control data. Table 8-3 on page 138 summarizes the number of Dante input and

output channels per Lake product, along with an indication of whether the product provides dual redundant

Dante audio networking which as described in section 3.6.2, and the associated Product Operation manuals.

Some Dante-enabled Lake products also support AES67. For these products the Dante Conguration view

is named “Dante and AES67 Conguration”.
