Setting the ESB Configuration (Surface
TouchScreen MIXRACK / Mixer Pref / Audio Sync)
This screen lets you configure the iDR10 to be the
ESB master or slave. If you are using ESB to provide
audio to another system then set it as MASTER. If
you are receiving the channel audio from another
system then set it as MASTER/SLAVE.
ES IN and OUT - Plug a single CAT5 cable to
connect audio between EtherSound equipped
devices. Plug into the OUT socket on whichever
device is the audio clock master or is in the chain
nearest to it. Plug into the IN socket on the slave
device. For example, plug iDR10 ESA OUT to
Surface ESA IN.
Correct EtherSound data traffic is indicated by the
steady flashing of both the RX and TX LEDs. If
neither or just one is flashing then check for correct
connection or a cable fault. The ES connection is
made as soon as the cable is plugged in.
Note: Only one cable is required to connect the
audio to and from the remote device. Connect OUT
on the master device to IN on the slave device. This
refers to the clock master, not audio direction. Do
not connect OUT to IN and IN to OUT using two
cables.
DARS IN and OUT - This lets you synchronize the
iDR10 audio clock to an external device, or
synchronize the external device to the iDR10 audio
clock using the AES Digital Audio Reference System.
Set the system audio clock
source to Internal, ESB or
DARS sync input.
Note: Refer to the iLive
System Reference Guide for
more information on
EtherSound and how to
configure it.
Refer to the diagrams later in
this guide for applications
using EtherSound
Restore the factory default mapping of ESA if it has been previously changed for
other EtherSound applications using an external PC running the Auvitran ES Monitor
or similar software. This automatically reboots the iLive system, reconfiguring
(restoring) the current I/O setting assignments.
