v. Set the ID
MODE to
“Yamaha”.
vi. Set a unique
ID number for
each Shure
ULXD device,
starting from “Y001”.
2. Check the Network Port configuration:
i. In the DEVICE UTILITIES->NETWORK menu, select
CONFIGURATION.
ii. Select SWITCHED (default) if using a Daisy-chain connection with the
Dante devices, or if using a simple Primary network without
redundancy.
iii. Select REDUNDANT AUDIO if a Dante system with redundancy is
required. (this needs 2 separate networks, requiring additional
switches and cables).
iv. Do not use SPLIT mode. This is not compatible with control from the
Yamaha consoles.
3. Check the IP address used for Dante
i. In the DEVICE UTILITIES->NETWORK menu, select DANTE.
ii. Select AUDIO & CNTRL.
iii. Make sure “Automatic” mode is selected rather than “Manual”. (Unless
your Dante networking strategy specifically requires manual IP address
setting. However, this would be unusual).
4. When exiting the menu, the device will reboot if any of the above settings
have been changed.
3.2 Shure IP Setup
The non-Dante Shure devices don’t have the above settings, so they can be
skipped. However, for each Shure device (either with or without Dante), set the
preferred IP addressing strategy for their control (Auto / Manual). Note that the
Dante equipped ULXD4Q and ULXD4D have two separate IP address settings: one
for DANTE, and one for SHURE CONTROL. That is two different IP addresses
sharing the same physical network port on the rear of the device.
1. “Automatic” IP Address. This is the method used most frequently, due to
convenience of setup and easy management:
i. For ULXD: in the DEVICE UTILITIES->NETWORK menu, select
SHURE CONTROL, and then NETWORK.
For QLXD: hold down the ENTER button and press MENU to enter the
advanced menu. Press MENU again to access the IP menu.
For AXT: press the UTILITY menu button, followed by NETWORK.
ii. The Mode is set to “Automatic” by default (“Au” for QLXD), and this is
the easiest setting to use.
iii. If there is no DHCP server in the network, the IP address will be in the
range 169.254.*.* (where * is any number between 0 and 254).
