This part will be dedicated to the description the Audio ToolBox Matrix and how to use it.

11.1 First-Card, Second-Card ...

Prior to describe available modes, cards plugged into the AuviTran Audio ToolBox will be named that way:

• First card: is the AxC-Card plugged into the first non-empty slot of the ToolBox. Usually a network card in slot #1.
  • Second card: is the AxC-Card plugged into the second non-empty slot of the ToolBox.
• Third card: ...

11.2 Automatic Plug and Play mode vs. Advanced Matrix Routing mode

11.2.1 Automatic Plug and Play mode

This mode enables automatic audio routing sources and receivers between the "First Card" and the other cards plugged into the AuviTran Audio ToolBox. Priority routing depends on the slot number in which cards are plugged (from slower to higher slot).

The automatic audio routing done follows these two rules for receivers and sources:

• "First-card" sources are sent to "Second-card" receivers
  o Remaining "First-card" sources are then sent to "Third-card" receivers
• ... until no "First-Card" sources are available for distribution

• Unassigned receivers are muted

• "First-card" receivers are fed with "Second-card" sources
  o Remaining "First-card" receivers are fed with "Third-card" sources
  o ... until no "n th-card" sources are available

Here are two examples on automatic plug and play mode results:

• Toolbox with AxC-DANTE in slot #1, AxC-AX4O in slot #2, and AxC-MADI in slot #3
• AxC-DANTE RCV [01..04] ⇔ AxC-AX4O SRC [01..04]
• AxC-DANTE RCV [05..64] ⇔ AxC-MADI SRC [01..60]
• AxC-DANTE SRC [01..64] AxC-MADI RCV [01..64]
• Toolbox with AxC-DANTE in slot #1, AxC-AE8IO in slot #2, and AxC-MADI in slot #3
• AxC-DANTE RCV [01..04] ⇔ AxC-AE8IO SRC [01..04]
• AxC-DANTE RCV [05..64] ⇔ AxC-MADI SRC [01..60]
• AxC-DANTE SRC [01..04] ⇔ AxC-AE8IO RCV [01..04]
• AxC-DANTE SRC [05..64] AxC-MADI RCV [01..60]

Note: Automatic Plug and Play mode is the only mode available for AuviTran Audio ToolBox AVBx3/SB or /IS (fix routing).

11.2.2 Advanced Matrix Routing mode

This mode allows user to set manually the matrix routing using the dedicated matrix window. By clicking on the patch, a source can be assigned or unassigned to a receiver.

Note: This mode is only available on AVBx7 or AVBx3/SBM or /ISM (i.e. with matrix).

Note: When slot configuration is changed, matrix routing mode resets and sets back to Automatic Plug and Play mode.

11.3 Setting matrix mode

Working mode can be set through Rack setup tab or through matrix window, only when available.

AVBx7 matrix window

Through this window, user can view or set, when authorized, ToolBox internal matrix. It works like the NetPatch page.

In addition to manually set patch between sources and receivers, two functions are available:

• 1 Fully erase current matrix
• 2 Change matrix mode

Depending on matrix assignment, aliases available through the EtherSound NetPatch will be changed automatically to reflect sources and receivers in a user-friendly way.

12 FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

• Is using AVS-Monitor mandatory?

AVS-Monitor is used to configure the ToolBox. Once done, if no real time monitoring is necessary, you can use the AuviTran Audio ToolBox without AVS-Monitor.
