Switching the CONSOLE ID and SECONDARY PORT
DANTE SETUP window (SETUP page)
The button you switched is shown in red.
When the Dante audio network settings have been applied, the button you selected will return
to its original appearance.
NOTE
• If you change the SECONDARY PORT, you must also change the method of connection between
the CL series console and the I/O devices. For example if the connections used for the
REDUNDANT setting are left as they are when you change the setting to DAISY CHAIN, it will
become impossible to send and receive audio. Be sure to disconnect the cables before you
change the setting.
• The CONSOLE ID and SECONDARY PORT settings will not be changed even if you initialize the
CL series console.
• When the CONSOLE ID is OFF or is set to 2, 3, or 4 for a CL series console, the console’s BIT/
LATENCY will not change even if the BIT/LATENCY is changed in the DANTE SETUP window
for the CL series console within a network for which the CONSOLE ID is set to 1.
• When the CONSOLE ID is set to OFF, the DANTE PATCH BY field is fixed to “DANTE
CONTROLLER.” Also, patching cannot be changed in the DANTE INPUT PATCH window.
• When the CONSOLE ID is set to OFF, all the mounted devices will be “virtual.”
You can edit HA GAIN and other settings for R series units, but notification of the settings will not
be sent to the device. This is the same as when the devices are not connected.
Setting the Dante audio network latency
An appropriate latency setting for signals transmitted over a Dante audio network varies
depending on the network connection method and size. This section explains how to set an
appropriate latency setting depending on the connection method of Dante-enabled devices
that are connected to the CL series console.
Relationship between the switches and the number of hops
An appropriate latency setting on a Dante audio network varies depending on the number of
hops in the network. One hop is the step from one router (switch) to the next. You count the
number of hops starting from the master device to the most distant device (assuming that all
devices are connected in series).
Switches mean switching hubs as well as the switches that are built into CL series consoles
and I/O devices. Set the latency value based on the number of hops. The following table
shows typical latency settings based on the number of hops.
NOTE
• Depending on network conditions, you may want to raise the latency value even if the number of
hops is small.
• If a problem occurs, select 5.0 ms so that you will be able to identify whether the latency setting
is the cause of the problem.
STEP
1. In the DANTE SETUP window (SETUP page), select the CONSOLE ID and the
SECONDARY PORT.
2. Press the APPLY button.
3. In the window to confirm the change, press the OK button.
Number of hops Latency (ms)
Up to 3 0.25
Up to 5 0.5
Up to 10 1.0
Up to 20 2.0
21 or more (or if a problem occurs) 5.0
