Caracteristici cheie:
- 64-channel 48 kHz, bi-directional audio interface for Dante IP networks.
- Low-latency 24-bit signal transmission with sample-accurate synchronization.
- Interfacing with standard 100 Mbit/s or Gigabit network infrastructure with DSCP-based QoS.
- Mixt sample and bit rates can coexist on the same Dante network.
- WING remote control possible on the same network, using the integrated Ethernet switch.
Configurare și instalare
- Power Off WING Console: Before beginning, ensure your Behringer WING digital mixing console is completely powered off and disconnected from the main power supply.
- Localizați slotul de expansiune: Refer to your WING console's user manual to identify the expansion card slot.
- Insert WING-DANTE Card: Carefully align the WING-DANTE card with the expansion slot. Gently push the card into the slot until it is firmly seated. Do not force the card.
- Card securizat: If your WING console has securing mechanisms for expansion cards (e.g., screws or latches), ensure the WING-DANTE card is properly secured.
- Conectați cablurile de rețea: Connect standard Ethernet cables from your Dante network to the 'PRIMARY' and 'SECONDARY' ports on the WING-DANTE card. For redundant operation, connect both. For non-redundant, connect to 'PRIMARY'.
- Power On WING Console: Reconnect the WING console to the main power supply and power it on. The console should detect the new WING-DANTE card.
- Firmware Update (if necessary): Check the Behringer website for any firmware updates required for the WING console or the WING-DANTE card to ensure optimal compatibility and performance.
For detailed instructions on configuring Dante networks, refer to the Audinate Dante documentation and software (Dante Controller).
Operațiunea
Dante Network Configuration:
The WING-DANTE card integrates seamlessly with the Dante ecosystem. Configuration is primarily managed using Audinate's Controller Dante software, available for Windows and macOS.
- Install Dante Controller: Download and install the latest version of Dante Controller from the Audinate website (www.audinate.com).
- Conexiune retea: Ensure your computer running Dante Controller is connected to the same network as your WING-DANTE card.
- Recunoaștere dispozitiv: Open Dante Controller. Your WING console with the WING-DANTE card should appear as a recognized Dante device.
- Routing Audio: Use Dante Controller to establish audio routes between the WING-DANTE card (representing your WING console's inputs/outputs) and other Dante-enabled devices on your network.
- Clock Synchronization: Dante automatically manages clock synchronization. Ensure one device is designated as the master clock, or allow Dante to automatically select one.
- Adresare IP: By default, Dante devices use Automatic Private IP Addressing (APIPA). For larger or more complex networks, you may configure static IP addresses or use DHCP.
Indicatori de stare:
The WING-DANTE card features LEDs next to each Ethernet port:
- ACT (Activity) LED: Flashes to indicate network data activity.
- LINK 1G (Link/Speed) LED:
- Verde (solid): Indicates a 1 Gigabit Ethernet link.
- Portocaliu (solid): Indicates a 100 Megabit Ethernet link.
- Off: No network link detected.
Întreţinere
- curatenie: Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the exterior of the WING-DANTE card. Do not use abrasive cleaners, solvents, or waxes.
- Actualizări firmware: Verificați periodic Behringer-ul website for new firmware versions for both the WING console and the WING-DANTE card. Keeping firmware updated ensures optimal performance, compatibility, and access to new features.
- Conditii de mediu: Operate and store the card within recommended temperature and humidity ranges to prevent damage. Avoid extreme temperatures and high humidity.
Depanare
| Problemă | Cauza posibila | Soluţie |
|---|---|---|
| WING-DANTE card not recognized by WING console. | Card not fully seated; console firmware outdated. | Power off, reseat the card firmly. Check Behringer website for WING console firmware updates. |
| No network link (LINK 1G LED off). | Faulty Ethernet cable; network switch off/misconfigured; incorrect port. | Check Ethernet cable connections. Verify network switch is powered on and configured correctly. Try a different port or cable. |
| Dante Controller does not see the WING-DANTE card. | Computer not on same network; firewall blocking; IP address conflict. | Ensure computer is on the same subnet. Temporarily disable firewall. Check for IP address conflicts using network tools. |
| Audio dropouts or glitches. | Network congestion; incorrect clocking; high latency settings. | Ensure network is dedicated for Dante traffic. Verify clock master is correctly set in Dante Controller. Adjust Dante latency settings (increase if necessary). Use Gigabit switches. |
