4 Yamaha CL / QL Setup
Firstly, check the firmware of the mixer is v4.10 or newer. The latest firmware can
be found at

4.1 NETWORK
As with the Shure devices, NETWORK settings need to be checked for compatibility
before continuing. Use the same IP addressing strategy for CL/QL as with the Shure
devices: either “Automatic” or “Manual”. Though CL/QL consoles divide the
“Automatic” strategy into two further options: “DHCP” or “AUTO IP”. These
enhanced NETWORK settings were introduced with firmware version v4.10.
Previously, “AUTO IP” was the only possibility.
1. Open the SETUP menu, and the NETWORK window.
2. Select the “FOR DEVICE CONTROL” tab. Here the IP address is set for
controlling external devices within the Dante network, including the compatible
Shure non-Dante devices.
3. Choose the required strategy for assigning IP addresses. Select either
“DHCP” or “AUTO IP” if the Shure devices have been set to “Automatic”
mode:
a. “DHCP” if a DHCP server is used in the network. Then the IP settings
will be assigned automatically within a range specified by the DHCP
server.
b. “AUTO IP” for easy setup when a DHCP server is not used. Then the
IP address will be set within the 169.254.*.* range, with subnet mask
255.255.0.0.
c. “STATIC IP” for manual setup. Choose this when all the Shure devices
are set to “Manual” mode. Set an appropriate IP address, subnet mask
and gateway address which is compatible with all the other devices in
the network.
4. Press “APPLY” to confirm the setting. The console must be restarted to
complete any change.
Note:
Before continuing,
make sure the IP
address set in the FOR
MIXER CONTROL tab
of the NETWORK
SETUP window is in a
different subnet
(number range) to the
IP address used for
DEVICE CONTROL.
Otherwise the device
control will not work.
For example, if FOR
DEVICE CONTROL is set to 169.254.*.*, then it is safe to use the default setting of
192.168.0.128 for MIXER CONTROL. 169.254.*.* should not be used for both.
