APPENDIX 2: Installation details: configuration of ARENA consoles and BC2000D
matrices for use with AoIP multichannel boards.
A2.1. Scope.
The purpose of this appendix is to detail the default nomenclature of audio channels in ARENA
consoles and BC2000D matrices in order to ease installation and configuration of a
multichannel AoIP audio system.
A2.1.1. ARENA, BC2000D and DANTE internal systems correspondence.
Have in mind that the configuration of the input and output channels in the internal configuration
menus and configuration software for ARENA consoles and BC2000D matrices is not
transferred to the channels that appears in "Dante Controller" application, so both systems must
be configured separately. Also note that:
• DANTE identifies stereo lines as dual mono, so different names are assigned to left and
right channels forming stereo line. Therefore, stereo lines must be managed as dual
mono lines.
• ARENA displays support only up to 7 characters per normal label and up to 4 per short
label.
• BC2000D matrices configuration software has a "wizard" in order to create the lines
names automatically.
• The name of the internal bus or input routed to an output is sometimes more meaningful
than the output line name itself.
The names that are associated by default to input/output lines of BC2214 boards in ARENA
consoles and BC2000D matrices and to associated channels that appears in "Dante Controller"
are detailed next, in order to ease a coherent configuration for both systems and the routing
between them.
