Note
1:
To
enter
a
value
in
any
of
the
setting
boxes,
overwrite
the
existing
value
and
then
press
“Enter”/”Return”.
If
“Enter”/”Return”
is
not
pressed
then
the
value
is
not
stored.
Note
2:
“Update”
gets
the
current
values
from
the
ION
NOT
sends
values
to
the
ION.
Note
3:
See
below
for
Unicast/Multicast/Multi‐Unicast
operation
•
If
Unicast
mode
=
A
(ie
always
Multicast)
and
MaxUnicast
=
0,
then
the
bundle
is
always
Multicast
•
If
Unicast
mode
=
A
(ie
always
Multicast)
and
MaxUnicast
=
1,
then
the
bundle
is
always
Multicast
above
1
Multi‐Unicast
bundle
•
If
Unicast
mode
=
A
(ie
always
Multicast)
and
MaxUnicast
=
2,
then
the
bundle
is
always
Multicast
above
2
Multi‐Unicast
bundles
•
If Unicast mode = A (ie always Multicast) and MaxUnicast = 3, then the bundle is
always Multicast above 3 Multi‐Unicast bundles
•
If
Unicast
mode
=
A
(ie
always
Multicast)
and
MaxUnicast
=
4,
then
the
bundle
is
always
Multicast
above
4
Multi‐Unicast
bundles
•
If
Unicast
mode
=
N
(ie
never
multicast)
and
MaxUnicast
=
1,
then
the
Multi‐
Unicast
is
limited
to
1
bundle
and
receiver
priority
will
determine
access.
•
If
Unicast
mode
=
N
(ie
never
multicast)
and
MaxUnicast
=
2,
then
the
Multi‐
Unicast
is
limited
to
2
bundles
and
receiver
priority
will
determine
access.
•
If Unicast mode = N (ie never multicast) and MaxUnicast = 3, then the Multi‐
Unicast is limited to 3 bundles and receiver priority will determine access.
•
If Unicast mode = N (ie never multicast) and MaxUnicast = 4, then the Multi‐
Unicast is limited to 4 bundles and receiver priority will determine access.
Note
1:
When
Unicast
=
N
and
MaxUnicast
is
set
to
0,
this
is
a
null
setting
and
MaxUnicast
is
actually
set
to
1
as
default.
Note
2:
All
CobraNet™
settings
need
up
to
1
minute
to
establish
persistence,
as
they
are
stored
in
the
CobraNet™
flash.
If
the
ION
power
is
cycled
before
the
settings
are
stored
to
flash,
then
the
settings
will
be
lost.
4.2.4 DSP settings
The
final
configuration
tab
is
for
the
DSP
inside
the
IONs‐
see
Figure 4-5
below.
The
DSP
controls
are
described
below…
•
Router:
The
router
(see
Figure 4-6
below)
accepts
25
inputs
and
32
outputs.
The
first
8
inputs
are
ION
local
analog.
Note:
ION8.8
uses
all
8,
the
ION4.4
only
uses
the
first
4.
The
next
16
inputs
are
CobraNet™
inputs
01‐16,
as
defined
in
the
protocol
sub
channel
mapping.
The
final
input
is
the
Test
Tone
(Sine
wave).
The
first
16
outputs
are
8
channel
pairs.
The
Odd
channels
are
Ducker
inputs
(eg
BGM
signals)
and
the
Even
channels
are
the
Ducker
signal
(eg,
Paging
Microphones).
The
next
16
outputs
are
CobraNet™
outputs
33‐48,
as
defined
in
the protocol sub channel mapping.
