In a DME audio system, a group of the same models that can be operated in sync is called a “device group;” audio processing divisions that accommodate multiple device groups are called “zones;” and the entire area serviced by the acoustic system is called an “area.” Each device group always includes one DME series unit that functions as the “group master” and controls all other DME series units in the same device group. If a computer is connected to the network, you can use the computer to control an entire device group via the group master. Controls and Connectors Glossary for the DME Satellite This section explains terminology specific to the DME Satellite. Components and parameters Connecting to a Computer The individual audio processing modules (equalizers, compressors, etc.) are called “components.” External head amplifier control modules are also available as components. Changing the parameters of components enables control over the operation of the components. Configuration Audio I/O Connection A “configuration” is a complete set of components for constructing an audio system. Each configuration determines the audio function(s) of the corresponding DME Satellite unit. All parameter sets included with each component in a configuration are called “preset parameters.” One DME Satellite unit has a number of configurations, and a configuration has a number of preset parameters. User Defined buttons (User Defined parameters) Assigning parameters to be User Defined parameters enables you to control the device from the ICP1 and the DME64N/DME24N.

CobraNet currently supports a 48 or 96 kHz sampling rate with 16, 20, or 24-bit resolution. It can also transfer control data along with audio signals. The type of control data that the network can handle depends on the type of devices on the network. When an audio signal passes through the CobraNet network, it causes a fixed latency of 5.33 milliseconds (or, depending on the setting, 2.67 or 1.33 milliseconds). Visit the CobraNet home page for more information on CobraNet. Introduction to the DME Satellite CobraNet in a nutshell The maximum number of channels that can be assigned to each bundle is as follows. Maximum channels per bundle Latency * ** 16bit, 48kHz 20bit, 48kHz 24bit, 48kHz 16bit, 96kHz 20bit, 96kHz 24bit, 96kHz 5.33ms 8 8 7 4* 4* 3** 2.67ms 8 8 8 4* 4* 4* 1.33ms 8 8 8 4* 4* 4* Since 96-kHz audio is handled as two 48-kHz signals combined, the maximum number of channels is halved. The audio signal output from the 4th channel will include some aliasing noise, and proper operation cannot be guaranteed. Please do not use this channel. NO T E Audio I/O Connection Connecting to an External Device CobraNet network transmits digital audio data in bundles. When bundles are received, they are converted back into the original digital audio data. With the DME Satellite, a single bundle can carry up to eight channels of digital audio. For routing around the network, bundles are assigned numbers from 1 through 65,279. If you set the same bundle number on both transmitting and receiving devices, digital audio data can be transmitted over CobraNet network. There is no limitation to the number of bundles that can be transmitted and received over the CobraNet network, as long as there are enough network resources. The number of bundles that can be handled depends on the device. The DME Satellite can use up to 4 output bundles and up to 8 input bundles. You can specify the bundle number by using the DME Designer application.

Depending on the configuration, the maximum number of channels that can be handle may be less than 8. 15  Foreword Introduction to the DME Satellite Multicast and unicast bundles Introduction to the DME Satellite Controls and Connectors CobraNet bundles can be either multicast or unicast. Multicast bundles are transmitted from one device to multiple devices on the network (one-to-many). Unicast bundles are transmitted from one device to another (one-to-one). Unicast bundles are transmitted only when another device is configured to receive them by assigning the same bundle numbers. On the other hand, multicast bundles are transmitted to all devices on the network regardless of whether any devices are configured to receive them, and only devices that are configured to receive those bundles actually process them. It is recommended that no more than four multicast bundles (offering up to 32 channels) be used, since transmission of multicast bundles consumes more network resources. Unicast bundles should be used if five or more bundles are required. It is also possible to set multiple devices to receive the same unicast bundle number, and depending on the transmitting device up to 4 receiving devices may be able to simultaneously receive the same bundle. This situation is known as “multi-unicast.” The DME Satellite is capable of handling multi-unicast bundles. Multicast and unicast bundles are identified by bundle number. Multicast bundles are numbered 1 through 255. Unicast bundles are numbered 256 through 65,279. Connecting to a Computer Multicast bundle If Device A is transmitting multicast bundles, they will be transmitted to all devices on the CobraNet network (e.g., Devices B, C, and D in the example). Audio I/O Connection Connecting to an External Device Other Functions CobraNet Device A B Unicast bundle If Device A is transmitting unicast bundles, and the same bundle numbers are assigned to the transmitting bundles on Device A and receiving bundles on Device D, then Device A will transmit the unicast bundels to Device D.

All other CobraNet devices are performers (network sync slaves). Each device synchronizes its own internal clock to the beat packets (sync signals) transmitted by the conductor. The conductor device is chosen automatically and no user intervention is required. However, setting an appropriate conductor priority could enable users to assign any device as the conductor. Refer to the DME Designer Owner’s Manual for more information on setting the conductor priority. If the DME Satellite is the conductor, the [IN USE/CONDUCTOR] LED flashes orange. If the conductor fails, another device automatically takes over. Since the conductor transmits beat packets (sync signals) onto the network, each performer does not require an external word clock connection, reducing cabling complexity and cost. Any non-networked digital audio equipment should derive its word clock from a CobraNet networked device. Introduction to the DME Satellite Conductors and performers References Other Functions Connecting to an External Device Category-5 metal cables can be used for runs of up to 100 meters. The maximum distance for multimode fiber optic cable is 2 kilometers. However, due to differences in cables, as well as switching hub and CobraNet device performance, proper operation at the maximum length cannot be guaranteed in all cases. Always use switching hubs in a CobraNet network. When using metal cable for connections, be sure to use Category 5 straight cables. Audio I/O Connection Cables and hubs for CobraNet network Connecting to a Computer All CobraNet networked devices, regardless of whether each device serves as the conductor or a performer, can receive digital audio data and control data.
