Setting Latency
Latency is the amount of time for a signal to travel across the system to the outputs of a device. To account for variances in la
tency time between devices and channels, Dante has a predetermined selection of latency settings. When the same setting is
selected, it ensures that all Dante devices on the network are in sync.
The latency setting for Dante devices should be set according to the number of switches in the network. The MXW Audio Net
work Interface and Access Point both include an internal switch chip, which counts as a switch. For example, one network in
terface connected to an access point equals two switches.
Use Audinate's Dante Controller software to change the latency setting.
Latency Recommendations
Latency Setting Maximum Number of Switches
0.25 ms 3
0.5 ms (default) 5
1 ms 10
2 ms 10+
Connecting to an External Control System
The MXW System connects to an AMX or Crestron control system via the Ethernet. Use only one controller per system to
avoid messaging conflicts. For a comprehensive list of MXW command strings, visit: http://shure.custhelp.com/app/answers/
