Aviom A640 - Dante Channel Names and Stereo Links; Restore Default Names

Page 64Aviom A640 Personal Mixer User Guide
When setting up an A640 Personal Mixer for use with a Dante network you can set the Auto-Sync
with Dante option to ON without an actual connection to a Dante network. Once the A640 is
connected to a D800-Dante A-Net Distributor that is part of a Dante network, the channel names will
update.
Dante Channel Names and Stereo Links
Dante networking does not support stereo links. When stereo links are set up on the D800-Dante
using its rear-panel DIP switches, the stereo link information is embedded in the Aviom A-Net data
that each Personal Mixer receives. The channel names for stereo pairs will adopt the odd-numbered
channel’s text (as seen in Dante Controller) and display that on the A640 mix channels.
For example, if you name Dante channels 1 and 2 as “Drums-L” and “Drums-R” in Dante Controller, the
A640 will display the channel name as “Drums-L” when channels 1-2 are stereo linked on the D800-
Dante.

To reset all channel names and return them to their default settings use the Restore Default Names
command.
