About this Guide

This guide contains installation, configuration, and operating information for the Extron DMP 128 Plus ProDSP Digital Audio Matrix Processor. In this guide, the DMP 128 Plus may also be referred to as "DMP 128," "the mixer," or "device."

About the DMP 128 Plus

The Extron DMP 128 Plus Digital Audio Matrix Processor is a 12x8 audio mixer with broad I/O expansion capabilities including:

  • 8 auxiliary inputs via VoIP (V models only), USB, and internal audio files
    • 16 x16 expansion bus
    • Dante 48x24 AT channels (AT models only)
  • VoIP (V models only)
  • Digital I/O

The DMP 128 Plus features Extron ProDSP, automixing, AEC (Acoustic Echo Cancellation), and USB audio for use as an audio-to-PC interface. The DMP 128 Plus offers a configuration approach to DSP to simplify mixing, routing, conferencing, and room optimization. Quick and intuitive configuration using the Extron DSP Configurator software allows the DMP 128 Plus to be installed in very little time with easy-to-learn adjustments that can be applied in real-time. A digital audio expansion port (EXP) allows two EXP-capable devices to be linked together to expand input and output signal management and routing capabilities. The DMP 128 Plus is ideal for presentation and conferencing applications in boardrooms, courtrooms, and conference centers requiring advanced matrix mixing and DSP.

In addition to EXP expansion capabilities, DMP 128 Plus AT models allow connection to a Dante audio network for transporting audio across a TCP/IP network. This further increases the DMP 128 Plus input and output expansion capabilities.

DMP 128 Plus V models can register up to 8 VoIP lines per device. The DMP 128 Plus V can function as a VoIP interface, removing the need for dedicated VoIP hardware.

The DMP 128 Plus has no front panel controls. All configuration is performed using the Extron DSP Configurator software from a host computer via Ethernet (recommended) or USB. The rear panel RS-232 port allows for serial control via SIS commands. Signal presence and clip LEDs for the twelve input channels and eight output channels are on the front panel. Status indicators for EXP, LAN, and USB audio are also on the front panel.

Figure 9. RS-232 Wiring Example

H LAN Ports — One (non-V models) or two (V models) RJ-45 ports provide a Gigabit network connection for control and VoIP traffic. The host PC or control system and the DMP 128 Plus must be connected to the same network. Two LEDs indicate status.

NOTE: Only DMP 128 Plus V models have two LAN/VoIP ports. Non-V models only have a single LAN port.

LAN 1 defaults:

IP Address SubnetMask Default Gateway DHCP
192.168.254.254 2555.255.255.0 0.0.0.0 OFF

LAN 2 defaults:

IP Address SubnetMask Default Gateway DHCP
192.168.1.254 255.255.255.0 0.0.0.0 OFF

There are three ways the dual LAN ports can be configured on DMP 128 Plus V models:

  1. Control and VoIP traffic on one LAN port — Both control and VoIP traffic can be transported via a single LAN port.

NOTE: By default, control and VoIP traffic are both transported on LAN 1.

  1. Control and VoIP traffic on one LAN port using a VLAN — Both control and VoIP traffic can be transported via a single physical LAN port while utilizing a VLAN for VoIP traffic.
  2. Control and VoIP traffic on separate LAN ports — Control and VoIP traffic can be transported on separate LAN ports with unique IP configurations.

1 AT Ports (AT models only) — Four RJ-45 ports form a Gigabit switch for use with a Dante network. The AT ports use Dante protocol for digital audio transport (AT) and allow the DMP 128 Plus AT to connect to a Dante audio network to form a larger matrix (see Dante Controller on page 107). The 4-port switch can be configured as two 2-port switches for redundant Dante configuration. In redundant configuration, audio traffic is duplicated. Ports 3 and 4 are the primary switch (PRI), ports 1 and 2 are the secondary switch (SEC) (see Redundant Configuration on page 117).
USB Audio Port — One mini USB type B port connects to a computer and allows the DMP 128 Plus to function as a 4x4 audio interface with a Windows or Mac computer. Available sample rates are 48 kHz/16-bit.
Reset Button and LED —The reset button returns the DMP 128 Plus to different tiers of default states. When using the reset button, the LED blinks to signify the different reset modes (see Hardware Reset Modes on page 9). When not displaying reset modes, the LED operates as a power indicator, matching the front panel power LED.

Emulate Mode

While in Emulate mode, DSP Configurator is functioning in an "offline" state. Changes made to the configuration file are not applied to a DMP 128 Plus.

In Emulate mode, the user can create and configure the software as though a device was connected, except for any actions that require direct connection to the device or information that is stored only on the device. Once configuration is complete, the user can switch to Live mode and apply the configuration to the device or save the configuration file to be loaded onto one or multiple devices at a later time.

Creating configuration files in Emulate mode saves time by not requiring a device to be connected or present in order for the bulk of DSP configuration to be completed.

NOTE: Not all menu options or actions are available in Emulate mode.

Live Mode

Enter Live mode to connect to a DMP 128 Plus and push or pull configurations between the device and host PC. In Live mode, changes made in DSP Configurator are directly applied to the DMP 128 Plus. Additionally, presets and macros can be created and stored on the device.

When entering Live mode, the user is prompted with the Connect to device dialog box.

Input AEC Block (C Models Only)

About AEC

Echo occurs when audio from a talker in the far end is received and amplified into the near end listener's room, with that sound then being picked up by microphones in the near end acoustic space and sent back to the far end. The amount of signal sent back to the far end talker can be substantial, and with the added transmission delay, the result is an echo effect that can seriously compromise communication in a teleconference or videoconference.

The Extron Acoustic Echo Cancellation (AEC) processor removes the potential echo signal at the near end mic channel by comparing it to the received signal from the far end, designated as the “reference,” and then creating an adaptive filter to cancel the potential echo before it is sent back to the far end.

Successful operation of the AEC processing block is mainly a function of proper gain structure and selection of an AEC reference. This section provides an overview of those two elements.

Proper gain structure involves the relationship between the signal at the selected reference and the signal at the mic input, within the context of proper levels for the reference and mic inputs independently. The mic input gain setting will naturally be optimized for the voice level of the talker in that room. Therefore, the amount of signal from the far end picked up by the mic is dependent on how much far end signal is being amplified in the near end room and the distance from the mic to the speakers.

Automixer Gate Monitoring

Automixer gate monitoring allows the user to track when an automixer gate opens or closes. This feature can be enabled by checking the Monitor Gate checkbox in an Automix dialog (see figure 69, ⑦ on the previous page). When automixer gate monitoring is enabled for a channel, an unsolicited message is sent when the gate has opened or closed. The response will include the Automixer OID, gate open or closed status, and the signal level immediately after the status has changed (see the Automixer Gate Monitoring commands on page 146 for SIS response syntax).

Comparing the automixer gate threshold setting to the gate status in the response will indicate whether the automixer gate has opened or closed. When the gate status in the response is 1024 or greater, the gate has opened, and when the gate status in the response is less than 1024, the gate has closed.

VoIP Input

Double-click the Aux input gain block and hover the mouse over VoIP... to display the eight available VoIP lines. Select one of the VoIP lines to insert it as the source for the selected Aux input. Aux inputs with VoIP lines selected as the source receive signal via the far end of the VoIP network. VoIP lines can be assigned to Aux channels before the line is registered with the call server; however, VoIP lines must be registered with a call server and configured from the DMP 128 Plus VoIP web page before these inputs can function properly (see DMP 128 Plus VoIP Web Page on page 167). Multiple appearances of a single line can be placed on multiple Aux inputs for conference calling capabilities.

NOTE: When a VoIP line is assigned as the source or removed from Aux input, the same VoIP line is assigned to or removed from the corresponding Aux output.

Virtual Return Building Blocks

Building blocks can be applied to all 16 virtual return channels (see Input Building Blocks on page 22 for more information on configuring virtual return building blocks).

Virtual Return Processing

Virtual returns A through D contain the following signal processing chain:

  1. Virtual Return Feedback Suppressor Block
  2. Virtual Return Filter Block
  3. Virtual Return Dynamics Block
  4. Virtual Return Delay Block
  5. Virtual Return Pre-Mixer Gain Block

  1. Virtual Return Filter Block
  2. Virtual Return Dynamics Block
  3. Virtual Return Delay Block
  4. Virtual Return Pre-Mixer Gain Block

NOTE: Only Virtual Return channels A through D contain Feedback Suppression processing blocks.

Virtual Return Feedback Suppressor Block

Use the feedback suppressor when there is an indication of feedback during live operation. Dynamic filters automatically detect feedback on a live mic channel, and engage a set of up to 5 fixed and 15 dynamic filters to counteract feedback at the detected frequencies. The dynamic filters act in a “first in, first out” rotation. If all 15 dynamic filters are employed and an additional feedback frequency is detected, the first feedback frequency detected is overwritten.

To avoid a new feedback frequency overwriting a previously detected frequency, up to 5 dynamic filters can be transferred into fixed filters. Once a dynamic filter is transferred into a fixed filter, it can only be overwritten by manually assigning a new frequency to the filter.

Double-click the feedback suppressor block to show the feedback suppressor drop-down menu. Select Feedback Suppressor to insert a feedback suppressor processor into the signal chain.

The DMP 128 Plus can receive 16 channels of audio via the EXP port and 48 channels of audio via Dante (AT models only). On a DMP 128 Plus AT model, AT inputs 33 through 48 can be used for the EXP inputs allowing use of the Dante network and the EXP port simultaneously (see Expansion Bus on page 94).

Renaming an Expansion or AT Input

NOTES:

  • AT inputs only appear on DMP 128 Plus AT models.
  • AT inputs can only be renamed when connected in Live mode. Default input names appear in Emulate mode.
  • Renaming an AT input in DSP Configurator affects the receiver name in Dante Controller. Alternatively, renaming a receiver channel name in Dante Controller affects the name displayed in DSP Configurator (see Renaming a Receiver or Transmitter on page 113).

Expansion and AT Inputs Overview

With the Extron Expansion Port (EXP), two EXP enabled devices can be connected for bidirectional communication of 16 audio channels. When two units are connected, one unit must be set as the Primary Unit and the other must be set as the Secondary Unit (see Expansion Bus on page 94). This synchronizes the sampling clocks of the two units.

AT inputs allow a DMP 128 Plus AT model to receive signal from the audio network. Network audio routing is done with Dante Controller (see Dante Controller on page 107).

The expansion and AT input pre-mixer gain block functions the same as the mic/line input pre-mixer gain block (see Input Pre-Mixer Gain Block on page 42 for information on configuring the virtual return pre-mixer gain block).

Mix-Points

DSP Configurator contains twelve mix matrices that connect all inputs and outputs (see figure 93 on the next page). The mix matrices set post-processing mix levels.

Each input is connected to a mix-point for the signal to be routed to an output. In general, mix levels are set relative to each other, achieving a blend of input signals at an optimal output level, close to, but not exceeding 0 dBFS at the output.

NOTE: In order for mix-points to appear in the workspace, the input group sending signal to the mix-point must be expanded and the input channel must be visible.

One dynamics block is available for each output channel. This block functions the same as the mic/line input dynamics block (see Input Dynamics Blocks on page 32 for information on configuring the Aux output dynamics block).

Aux Output Gain Block

Double-click the Aux output gain block to access a drop-down menu that displays USB and VoIP (V models only) output options. A selection must be made before audio passes through an Aux output.

Extron DMP 128 Plus C AT - Aux Output Gain Block - 1
Figure 113. Aux Output Gain Block and Drop-Down Menu

The USB... and VoIP... selections in the Aux output mimic that of the Aux input (see Aux Input Gain Block on page 44).

NOTES:

  • It is recommended that the USB 1 left and right channels be used for communication audio and USB 2 left and right channels be used for line input.
  • When a VoIP line is assigned as the source for an Aux input, the same VoIP line is assigned to the corresponding Aux output. For example, if VoIP Line 1 is assigned to Aux input 1, VoIP line 1 is automatically assigned to Aux output 1 as well. Aux outputs can be reassigned to a different VoIP line.

Once an output has been selected, double-click the Aux output gain block again to open the Aux Output dialog box. This dialog box functions the same as the Aux input gain block (see Aux Input Gain Block on page 44 for information on configuring the Aux Output dialog box).

Expansion Bus

With the Extron Expansion (EXP) port, two EXP-enabled devices can be connected for bidirectional streaming of up to 16 channels of audio. EXP inputs and outputs contain DSP (see Expansion and AT Inputs on page 53 and Expansion Outputs on page 65).

Connecting the EXP Ports

When connecting a DMP 128 Plus to another EXP-enabled device for EXP communication, one of the devices must be set as the primary unit. The primary unit serves as the master clock for all EXP audio communication. The other unit must be set as a secondary unit in order for a connection to be established.

There are two different procedures for setting up DMP 128 Plus for EXP communication. The first procedure describes how to set up a DMP 128 Plus non-AT model with another EXP-enabled non-AT device for EXP communication (see Connecting a DMP 128 Plus non-AT with Another EXP-Enabled non-AT Device below).

The second procedure describes how to set up a DMP 128 Plus AT model with another EXP-enabled non-AT device for EXP communication (see Connecting a DMP 128 Plus AT Device and an EXP-enabled non-AT Device on page 95 on the next page).

NOTE: Two DMP 128 Plus AT models cannot be connected via the EXP port because AT models can only be configured as a primary unit and cannot be set as a secondary unit. Instead, use the rear panel AT switch to connect the two devices over a Dante network (see Dante Controller on page 107).

Connecting a DMP 128 Plus non-AT with Another EXP-Enabled non-AT Device

The DMP 128 Plus can be connected to either a DTP CrossPoint or another DMP 128 Plus via EXP. The following procedure describes connecting a DMP 128 Plus non-AT with either a DTP CrossPoint or another DMP 128 Plus non-AT model.

  1. Connect live to the DMP 128 Plus.

NOTE: If connecting to DMP 128 Plus devices, decide which device will be set as primary unit and connect Live to that device.

  1. Select Tools > Expansion Bus > Primary Unit.

  2. Connect Live to the other DMP 128 Plus. If connecting a DTP CrossPoint, proceed to step 5.

  3. Select Tools > Expansion Bus and ensure Secondary Unit is selected.

NOTE: If both devices are configured as primary or secondary, an EXP connection cannot be established.

  1. Use a CAT 6 cable (such as the 1 foot cable included with the DMP 128 Plus) to connect the two rear panel EXP ports.

  2. When the connection is established, the front panel EXP LED on the primary DMP 128 Plus lights steadily and the EXP LED on the secondary unit blinks rapidly.

NOTE: The DTP CrossPoint EXP LED is located on the rear panel next to the EXP port.

  1. Open the Tools menu from the DMP 128 Plus main workspace and view the Expansion Bus status software LED (see figure 162, ①). The LED lights green when there is a valid connection.

Audio Control Panels (ACP)

Extron Audio Control Panels (ACP) are configurable control interfaces for use with the DMP 128 Plus. ACP panels connect to the rear panel ACP port of a DMP 128 Plus via a 4-pole 3.5 mm captive screw connector (see figure 2, F on page 5). Each ACP panel includes two ACP ports that support both power and communication between the DMP 128 Plus and the ACP panel. This section includes the following topics:

  • ACP Panel Types
  • Panel ID #
    • ACP Panel Button Control Types
    • Using Multiple ACP Panels
  • Configuration Examples

ACP Panel Types

ACP panels work by affecting group master controls, preset recall, and macro triggers, all of which must be configured on the DMP 128 Plus prior to configuring the ACP panels. The Configure ACPs dialog box presents a series of drop-down lists that populate with group masters, presets, and macros, according to the selections made.

When the Configure ACPs dialog is launched, the user is first asked to select a panel from the ACP Panel Type drop-down list. There are four models of ACP panel:

  • ACP 100
  • ACP 106 D
  • ACP 106 EU
  • ACP 106 MK

After a panel type is selected, the Configure ACPs dialog displays an image of the selected panel. The ACP 100 has six fully configurable buttons and a dedicated rotary volume knob. The ACP 106 style panels (ACP 106 D, 106 EU, and 106 MK) have six buttons. Two buttons are dedicated to mute off/mute on, two are dedicated to volume down/volume up, and the remaining two buttons are fully configurable.

All panels come with a default set of button labels. The ACP 100 also comes with additional button labels that can be used to relabel the buttons for alternate applications (see the ACP 100 Setup Guide for information on replacing buttons labels). Additional buttons for the ACP 106 style panels can be ordered from www.extron.com (see the ACP 106 D Setup Guide and ACP 106 EU/MK Setup Guide for information on replacing buttons).

Panel ID #

Panel ID numbers (ID #) are used to identify ACP panels connected to the DMP 128 Plus and are necessary for the panel to function. The ID # is set using the DIP switch assembly on the physical ACP panel. Once the panel ID has been set on the physical device, the ID is selected in the Configure ACPs dialog box when the panel is being configured in DSP Configurator (for information on how to set the panel ID #, see the corresponding ACP panel setup guide).

ACP Panel Button Control Types

Click on a button or rotary control within the panel image to select that button for configuration. When selected, the button or control will turn yellow to indicate that it is active for configuration, and the Configure ACPs dialog box will populate with a series of drop-down lists for that purpose. First, one of the following control types must be selected:

  • Action-Fixed
    • Action-Follow Selector
  • Selector-Vol/Mute

There are two basic control types: Action and Selector. Action controls can be either Action-Fixed or Action-Follow Selector. A button with dedicated functionality, such as a rotary knob or dedicated volume or mute buttons, can only be configured as an Action control type.

Action-Fixed

Buttons configured with the Action-Fixed control type perform an action that is tied to a fixed group, preset, or macro, and is not affected by or dependent on selections made on other buttons. When Action-Fixed is selected, the Configure ACPs dialog populates with a series of drop-down list selections shown in the table below. When a selection is made in the Action list, the Configure ACPs dialog then populates with subsequent selections.

Figure 166. Action-Fixed Selection Table

Action-Follow Selector

A button configured with the Action-Follow Selector control type performs an action that is tied to a volume group or a mute group, but is dependent on a Selector-Vol/Mute button to define which group the button affects. The table below shows the drop-down list selections that are available when Action-Follow Selector is chosen as the control type.

Action
Group Mute On
Group Mute Off
Group Mute Toggle
Group Volume Down
Group Volume Up
Group Vol Rotary (ACP 100 only)

Figure 167. Action-Follow Selector Selection Table

Selector-Vol/Mute (Selector)

Buttons configured as a Selector-Vol/Mute define a gain or mute group. A Selector-Vol/Mute button acts as a modifier for Action-Follow Selector buttons or controls. For example, if an Action-Follow Selector button is configured to increase or decrease the volume of a group, a Selector button defines which gain group is affected by the volume increase or decrease. Two or more Selector buttons are necessary for Action-Follow Selector buttons to function properly.

Button Labels

Each button can be labeled to match the control type or function assigned to the button. In the Label text field on the right side of the Configure ACPs dialog box, type a name to aid in identifying the function of each button.

Using Multiple ACP Panels

The two ports on the back of an ACP panel support power from and communication with the host DMP 128 Plus. Up to eight ACP panels can be daisy-chained together for more demanding control needs.

NOTES:

  • The DMP 128 Plus rear-panel ACP port provides 6 W of power.
  • Use an Extron PS 1220EB power supply or Extron 12 V desktop power supply when additional power is required. Refer to the ACP panel setup guide for wiring details.

Configuration Examples

ACP panels can be configured to meet a wide variety of control needs. The following configuration procedures are examples of flexible configurations using the default buttons that ship with the ACP panels. The two configuration examples are covered:

• ACP 100 Configuration Example
• ACP 106 Style Configuration Example

Create the following gain and mute groups from the Configure Groups dialog box (see Configuring Groups on page 70).

  • Mute and Gain groups for all microphone channels.
  • Mute and Gain groups for all program channels.

Dante Controller

This section describes the DMP 128 Plus AT network installation, configuration, and control using Dante Controller for Windows and covers the following topics:

  • Overview
    • Downloading and Installing Dante Controller
  • Configuring the DMP 128 Plus AT in Dante Controller
    • Physical Dante Network Setup
    • Dante Controller Operation
    • Dante Routing Operation
    • Dante Troubleshooting

Overview

DMP 128 Plus AT devices (DMP 128 Plus AT, C AT, and C V AT) use Dante technology by Audinate to provide high performance digital audio networking over standard TCP/IP networks. The Dante Controller software application is used to route audio on the network. Dante allows audio channels to be transported across a switched Ethernet data network while meeting the quality requirements of professional audio.

Up to 24 channels can be transmitted from the DMP 128 Plus AT to the Dante network and up to 48 channels can be received by the DMP 128 Plus AT from the Dante network. AT inputs 33 through 48 can be used to facilitate EXP bus communication (see Connecting a DMP 128 Plus AT Device and an EXP-enabled non-AT Device on page 95).

Audio signals are converted by DMP 128 Plus AT devices, processed and routed to the AT bus, and transmitted onto the Dante network. Audinate recommends the Dante audio network be kept separate from other networks. However, the audio network can be shared with control traffic or unrelated data traffic. Audio channels can be unicast or multicast to make the best use of available bandwidth.

Downloading and Installing Dante Controller

Dante Controller from Audinate is required to route transmitters and receivers and can be used to configure Dante settings and monitor performance. Install Dante Controller on a PC running Microsoft® Windows® 7 or newer. For full details about computer requirements and to download the software, see the Dante Controller product page at www.extron.com.

To download Dante Controller:

  1. On the Extron Electronics web page, click the Download tab (see figure 175, ① below). The Download page opens.

Configuring the DMP 128 Plus AT in Dante Controller

Use a standard Ethernet cable to connect the DMP 128 Plus AT to a Dante network via the rear panel AT port (see figure 2, ① on page 5) and power the device.

Device Name

Multiple devices on the same Dante network can present difficulty in identifying individual devices. To avoid confusion and difficulty, ensure the following steps are taken:

  • Connect devices to the Dante network one at a time.
  • Rename each device before making audio connections in Dante Controller.
  • Rename each device with a unique and meaningful identifier.
  • Rename each device before the next device is connected to the Dante network.

ATTENTION: It is essential that a Dante device be named before audio subscriptions with other devices are established. Existing subscriptions are removed when a device is renamed.

In Dante Controller, a device can be renamed to identify the device on the audio network. The default device name of the DMP 128 Plus AT consists of the model name, followed by the last six characters of the Dante interface MAC address (for example, DMP128P-0ee8ee). In addition to renaming the device, individual Transmitter (Tx) and Receiver (Rx) channels can be renamed.

The Dante device name must be set before making any connections to other devices on the Dante network. Renaming a device after making connections removes existing connections to and from that device. Refer to Renaming the DMP 128 Plus AT in Dante Controller on the next page for renaming procedure.

Receiver and Transmitter Names

In addition to renaming a device, individual transmitter and receiver channels can be renamed in Dante Controller. Rename transmitter and receiver channels to reflect the location of the device or the purpose of the transmitter or receiver. Ensure transmitter and receiver channels are renamed before making audio connections between devices. Refer to Renaming a Receiver or Transmitter on page 113 for renaming procedure.

Dante Controller Naming Conventions

  • Device names follow Domain Name System (DNS) hostname rules. Legal characters are A-Z, a-z, 0-9, and hyphen (-). Names must begin with a letter and cannot end with a hyphen (-).
  • Dante Tx and Rx channel names (also known as labels) can be up to 31 characters in length. Label names are not case-sensitive. For example, “ANALOG OUT-1” and “analog out-1” are recognized as the same name. Unicode and non-roman characters are not supported.
  • Tx and Rx channel labels can use any character except equals (=), period (.), or @.
  • Tx and Rx channel labels must be unique on a device but do not need to be unique on the network.

Renaming the DMP 128 Plus AT in Dante Controller

NOTE: Dante device naming can also be done via DSP Configurator (see Dante Device on page 92).

  1. Ensure that the control computer and a single DMP 128 Plus AT are connected to the same network.
  2. From the control computer Start menu select:

All Programs > Audinate > Dante Controller > Dante Controller

  1. The Dante Controller - Network View screen opens. All Dante devices on the network are discovered and listed.

Physical Dante Network Setup

A physical network is required to share Dante audio channels between Dante-enabled devices like the DMP 128 Plus AT. Other Dante-enabled devices must be on the same physical network in order to communicate via Dante. There are two types of network topology that can be used to create a physical Dante network.

• Star Topology • Daisy Chain Topology

Star network topology has one DMP 128 Plus AT as the central unit which is directly connected to up to 3 other units. A larger network switch can be used in place of a central DMP 128 Plus AT, allowing more than four total units to be connected in the star topology.

Figure 188. Daisy Chain Network Topology

Hybrid versions combining the star and daisy chain topologies can be used, but a ring topology or any topology that creates a duplicate connection causes a failure in Dante Controller. Redundant connections are possible using the primary and secondary port interface structure (see Redundant Configuration on the next page).

Redundant Configuration

In redundant mode, the 4-port AT switch acts as two separate 2-port switches that duplicate audio traffic. Ports 3 and 4 are marked (PRI) for primary while ports 1 and 2 are marked (SEC) for secondary (see figure 189 below). Primary and secondary switches cannot be connected together anywhere in the audio network. Redundant configuration can be enabled using Dante Controller or DSP Configurator.

Dante Controller Operation

Dante Transmitters and Receivers

A Dante network is comprised of transmitters that output digital audio onto the Dante network and receivers that receive digital audio input from the Dante network.

• Transmitters output digital audio from the device onto the audio network.
- Receivers take in digital audio from the audio network into the device.

DMP 128 Plus AT Transmitters and Receivers

In the DMP 128 Plus AT, the line output and EXP output channels are Dante transmitters because their audio output is transmitted onto the Dante network. Routing an analog output to the Dante network allows the signal to be output on both analog and Dante simultaneously, the same is true for the EXP outputs.

The DMP 128 Plus AT EXP input channels are Dante receivers because they receive digital audio signal from the Dante network that can then be routed and mixed into the DMP 128 Plus AT mix matrix.

Dante Routing Operation

Dante Controller is used for all network signal routing of transmitters and receivers for Dante-enabled devices. The DMP 128 Plus AT transmitters and receivers are available in Dante Controller for routing to other Dante devices (see Dante Transmitters and Receivers on the previous page).

Routing Devices

After the DMP 128 Plus AT is configured, the channels can be routed to the other Dante devices on the audio network. Channels transmitted to the network or received from the network are routed using the Dante Controller Routing tab on the Network View page (see figure 192 on the next page). The transmitters, listed horizontally along the top of the screen, and the receivers, listed vertically down the left side, form a matrix whose intersections are the connection points between the receivers and transmitters.

  • To make a receiver-to-transmitter connection, click once on an intersection.
  • To remove a connection, click on the icon at the intersection.

One of the following icons appears at each connection intersection, indicating the status of both the transmitter and receiver channels and the connections (subscriptions):

Icon DDescription
Indicates an active subscription.
Indicates subscription is in progress.
Indicates a pending subscription.
Indicates a broken subscription.
Indicates the transmitting device has been removed from the network or is switched off.

See the Dante Controller User Guide, available at www.audinate.com, for additional information.

Creating Subscriptions Between Transmitters and Receivers

  1. Ensure the control computer and DMP 128 Plus AT are connected to the same network.
  2. From the start menu select:

All Programs > Audinate > Dante Controller > Dante Controller

The Dante Controller - Network View screen opens (see figure 192 on the next page).

Dante Controller auto-discovers Dante devices on the network and advertises itself to allow other Dante-enabled devices to communicate with it. Transmitters connect to receivers using the subscription matrix.

  1. To show the transmitters of a Dante device, click the + box next to the desired device in the Dante Transmitters panel, such as AXI22D-ConfRm1 (see figure 192, ① above). The + changes to a - sign when the device expands.
  2. To show the receivers of a Dante device, click the + box next to the desired device in the Dante Receivers panel, such as DMP128Plus-MainRack (2).
  3. Click the intersection of the desired subscription between a transmitter and a receiver (3).

Example: The mic/line input transmitters of the AXI22D-ConfRm1 and AXI22D-ConfRm2 are routed to the EXP input receivers of the DMP128Plus-MainRack.

A check mark at the intersection indicates the subscription is made. A check mark also appears next to the receiver channel.

NOTE: A receiver can connect to only one transmitter. A transmitter can connect to multiple receivers.

Disconnecting Inputs from Outputs

To undo routing, click the junction again to disconnect the receiver from the transmitter.

NOTE: After making changes to Dante network routing such as subscriptions, device names, or channel labels, wait at least 5 seconds before disconnecting or powering down the devices. This ensures that the new information is properly saved to those devices. Device level configuration such as sample rates, latency, and clock settings are saved instantly.

Dante Troubleshooting

The most common Dante troubleshooting issues occur when devices are not discovered by Dante Controller or when routing is not successful. Both issues occur when software is not able to properly discover devices operating on the Dante network.

Before moving into more difficult troubleshooting, shut down Dante Controller and reseat the Ethernet cable connecting the PC to the Dante network and restart Dante Controller. This can be enough for the software to reacquire the Dante network.

If the problem persists, perform the following troubleshooting procedures in the order listed.

Simplifying the Network for Troubleshooting

If further troubleshooting of Dante Controller is necessary, begin by simplifying the network:

  1. Bypass network switches by connecting two Dante-compatible units, such as a DMP 128 Plus AT and an AXI 44 AT, via their AT ports.
  2. Connect the PC to an unused AT port with an Ethernet cable.
  3. Use Dante Controller to check if the issue was resolved before moving on to network interface troubleshooting.
  4. If the issue is resolved, add connections and hardware one at a time, checking for proper operation after each addition, until the point of failure is discovered (typically a bad cable or invalid redundant configuration).

Troubleshooting the Network Interface

If the issue is still present, continue to diagnose the PC network connections as described below. Check Dante Controller after each step to see if the problem is resolved.

  1. Click the Choose a Dante Interface icon (see figure 193, ① below). The Configure Dante Interfaces dialog box opens.

Remote Communication and Control

This section describes how to control the DMP 128 Plus with SIS programming and covers the following topics:

  • Connection Options
    • Host-to-Device Communications
    • Using the Command and Response Tables
    • Command and Response Table for Basic SIS Commands
    • Command and Response Table for DSP SIS Commands
    • Command and Response Table for VoIP SIS Commands
    • Object ID (OID) Number Tables

Connection Options

The DMP 128 Plus Digital Matrix Processor can be remotely connected via a host computer or other device (such as a control system) attached to the rear panel RS-232 port or LAN port, or the front panel USB Config port.

The DMP 128 Plus can be set up and controlled using SIS commands or DSP Configurator software (see Installation on page 4 for pin assignments and details on the configuration and control port connections. For information on DSP Configurator, see DSP Configurator Software on page 10).

SIS commands can be executed using the Extron DataViewer application available from www.extron.com. The host computer issuing the commands can be connected via the following connections:

• RS-232 Port on the next page
• LAN Port on the next page
• USB Config Port on page 125

RS-232 Port

The DMP 128 Plus has a serial port that can be connected to a host device such as a computer running either the DataViewer or HyperTerminal utilities. The port makes serial control of the DMP 128 Plus possible.

The DMP 128 Plus uses the following RS-232 protocols:

• 38400 baud

- No parity

- 1 stop bit

- 8 data bits - No flow control

NOTES:

  • The rear panel configuration port requires 38400 baud communication. This speed is higher than most other Extron products. The DMP 128 Plus control software automatically sets the connection for the appropriate speed. When using DataViewer or similar application, make sure the host PC or control system is set for 38400 baud.
  • See Rear Panel Features and Cabling on page 5 for additional details on connecting to the RS-232 port.

LAN Port

The DMP 128 Plus can be connected to an Ethernet LAN or WAN. Communication between the device and the controlling device is via Telnet (a TCP socket using port 23). The Telnet port can be changed, if necessary, via SIS. This connection makes SIS control of the device possible using a computer connected to the same LAN or WAN. The SIS commands and behavior are identical to the commands and behavior the product exhibits when communicating by serial port or USB.

The DMP 128 Plus LAN port defaults are as follows:

IP Address SubnetMask Default GatewayDHCP
192.168.254.254 255.255.255.0 0.0.0.0 OFF

The Ethernet cable can be terminated as a straight-through cable or a crossover cable and must be properly terminated for your application.

• Crossover cable — Direct connection between the computer and the DMP 128 Plus.
- Straight-through (Patch) cable — Connection of the DMP 128 Plus to an Ethernet LAN.

Establishing a Network Connection via LAN

  1. Open a TCP socket to port 23 using the DMP 128 Plus IP address.

NOTE: If the local system administrators have not changed the value, the factory specified default, 192.168.254.254, is the correct value for this field.

  1. The DMP 128 Plus responds with a copyright message including the date, the name of the product, firmware version, part number, and the current date/time.
  2. If the device is password protected, enter the appropriate administrator or user password.

a. If the password is accepted, the device responds with Login User or Login Administrator.

b. If the password is not accepted, the Password prompt reappears.

NOTES:

  • The Ethernet link times out after a designated period of time of no communications. By default, the timeout value is set to 5 minutes and can be changed (see Set global IP port timeout on page 129).
  • Extron recommends leaving the default timeout at 5 minutes and periodically issuing the Query (Q) command to keep the connection active. If there are long idle periods, disconnect the socket and reopen the connection when another command must be sent.

USB Config Port

The DMP 128 Plus has a front panel USB port that can be connected to a computer as a host device running either the HyperTerminal or DataViewer utilities for control of the device. Once a connection is established, SIS programming can begin (see Host-to-Device Communications on the next page).

Verbose Modes

Telnet connections are used to monitor changes that occur, such as commands from other Telnet sockets or a serial port. For a Telnet session to receive change notices, the Telnet session must be in verbose mode 1 or 3 (see Set verbose mode on page 132). In verbose mode 1 or 3, the Telnet socket reports changes in messages that resemble SIS command responses.

Tagged and Untagged Responses

When a query command is sent in verbose mode 0 or 1, only the “untagged” value is returned. When a query command is sent in other verbose modes, the response is “tagged” and resembles the response to a set command.

Example: The gain query command EscG40000AU← is sent. The following responses appear depending on the verbose mode:

  • Untagged (verbose 0 or 1): 626←, just the gain value with no other information.
  • Tagged (verbose 2 or 3): DsG40000*626←, the type of query sent, the OID queried, and the gain value.

NOTE: All query responses listed in this guide are untagged.

Host-to-Device Communications

The commands listed in the following tables perform the same functions, but are encoded differently to accommodate the requirements of each Telnet or browser port.

DMP 128 Plus-initiated Messages

The DMP 128 Plus initiates messages under specific conditions. No response is required for the host. The DMP 128 Plus-initiated messages are listed below.

The DMP 128 Plus initiates the following copyright message when it is first powered on or when a connection via IP is established:

(c) Copyright 2016–2018, Extron Electronics, DMP 128 Plus {model}, Vn.nn, 60-nnnn-nn

Day, DD MMM YYYY HH:MM:SS

  • Vn.nn is the firmware version number.
    • {model} is the full model name. DMP 128 Plus C, for example.
  • 60-nnnn-nn is the DMP 128 Plus part number.

The DMP 128 Plus sends the boot and copyright messages under the following circumstances:

  • If the DMP 128 Plus is off and RS-232 connection is already set up (the PC is cabled to the DMP 128 Plus and a serial communication program such as DataViewer is open), the connected unit sends these messages via RS-232 when first powered on.
  • The DMP 128 Plus sends the boot and copyright messages when a Telnet connection to the DMP 128 Plus is opened via Telnet, but not via RS-232. If using a Telnet connection, the copyright message, date, and time may be followed by a password prompt.

Password Prompt

The ←Password prompt requires an administrator or user password followed by a carriage return. The prompt is repeated if the incorrect password is entered.

If the correct password is entered, the unit responds with ←Login Administrator← or ←Login User← depending on the password entered. If passwords are the same for both administrator and user, the unit will default to administrator privileges.

Using the Command and Response Tables

SIS commands consist of a string (one or more characters per command field). No special characters are required to begin or end a command sequence. When the DMP 128 Plus determines a command is valid, it executes the command and sends a response to the host device. All responses end with a carriage return and a line feed, signaling the end of the response character string.

When programming, certain characters are more conveniently represented by their hexadecimal rather than ASCII values. The table below shows the hexadecimal equivalent of each ASCII character:

Figure 197. ASCII to Hex Conversion Table

The Command and Response tables list valid ASCII commands, the DMP 128 Plus responses to the host, and descriptions of the command functions with the results of executing the commands.

Symbol Definitions

← = Carriage return (with line feed)
← = Carriage return (no line feed)
- = Space character
= Pipe (can be used interchangeably with the ← character)
Esc = Escape key
W = Can be used interchangeably with the Esc character.

NOTES:

  • Only instances marked with a • character require a space. Any spaces between characters in the command and response tables are only inserted for ease of reading.
  • Unless stated otherwise, SIS commands are not case sensitive.

Error Responses

When the DMP 128 Plus is unable to execute the command, it returns an error response to the host. The error response codes and their descriptions are as follows:

E10 — Unrecognized command E24 — Privilege violation

E12 — Invalid port number E25 — Device not present

E13 — Invalid parameter E26 — Maximum number of connections

exceeded

E14 — Not valid for this configuration E27 — Invalid event number

E17 — Invalid command for signal type E28 — Bad filename or file not found

E18 — System/command timed out E31 — Attempt to break port pass-

through when not set

E22 — Busy

Simple Control Port Commands

Upper and lower case text can be used interchangeably except where noted. Port 23 is the default port for Telnet. Port 80 is the default port for web browsers. Both can be mapped to different ports.

DSP SIS Commands

Many digital signal processor (DSP) functions such as gain, mute, and group masters can be controlled using SIS commands. These commands follow the same general rules as basic SIS commands but the variables can be more complex. Also, an understanding of the audio signal flow is helpful for using audio DSP SIS commands. The following gain blocks are addressable via SIS commands:

• Mic/Line Input (gain and mute)
• Virtual Return (gain and mute)
• Aux Input (gain, mute, and source)
• Post-mixer (gain only)
- Pre-mixer (gain and mute) - Output (attenuation and mute)
• Mix-points (gain and mute)

Symbol Definitions

← = Carriage return/line feed
← = Carriage return (no line feed)
- = Space character
| = Pipe (can be used interchangeably with the ← character)
Esc = Escape key
W = Can be used interchangeably with the Esc character

X72 = Gain and trim control See Object ID (OID) Number Tables on page 150.
X73 = Level value Level values use a 10x multiplier system to set gain via SIS

command. For example, if the desired gain value is +10.3 dB, the SIS value would be 103 (10.3 x 10), if the desired gain value is -8.2 dB, the SIS value would be -82 (-8.2 x 10), and so on.

-12.0 dB to +12.0 dB, (-120 to 120) in 0.1 dB increments.
-18.0 dB to +80 dB, (-180 to 800) in 0.1 dB increments.
-100.0 dB to +12.0 dB, (-1000 to 120) in 0.1 dB increments.

NOTE: The integers only need to be signed if they are a negative number.

X74 = Mute status = unmute

1 = mute (see Object ID (OID) Number Tables on page 150)

X75 = Group master group number ∅1 through 64
[X76] = Group fader setting dB, value in 0.1 dB increments using a 10x multiplier and

negative numbers, but not decimal places. The valid range depends on the type of gain block that is assigned to the group number 75 specified in the command:

-180 to 800 (-18.0 dB to +80 dB)
-1000 to 120 (-100.0 dB to +12.0 dB)
-1000 to 120 (-100.0 dB to +12.0 dB)
-120 to 120 (-12.0 dB to +12.0 dB)
-1000 to 0 (-100.0 dB to +0.0 dB)

NOTE: Leading zeros are ignored.

X77 = Group fader increment dB value, in 0.1 dB increments, to raise or lower a group fader

X78 = Group fader soft limit dB value, in 0.1 dB increments. The valid range X76 must be within the range for the gain block grouped in X75.

X79 = Group type 6 = gain

12 = mute

Special Characters

The HTML language reserves certain characters for specific functions. The device will not accept the following characters as a part of preset names, the device names, passwords, or locally created file names.

The DMP 128 rejects the following characters:

{space (OK for names)} + \~ , @ = ' { } [ ] < > ` ` ; : \ ?

NOTE: If the local system administrators have not changed the IP address, and the device has not been assigned an IP address via DHCP, the default address is 192.168.254.254.

  1. Press . The device checks the password protection status, if a password is required, enter the password in the Connect to... dialog box and press . No username is required.
  2. The device checks several possibilities in the following order and responds accordingly:

a. If the address includes a specific file name, such as 192.168.254.254/file_name.html, the device downloads the web page.
b. If there is a file in the device memory named index.html, the device downloads index.html as the default startup page.
c. If a and b do not apply, the device downloads the factory-installed default startup page, nortxe_index.html, also known as the System Status page.
