2.2.1 - Net Mode
The primary operating mode for audio monitoring is the Net Mode. In this mode Dante audio channels may be selected by the user from the front panel controls for simple and efficient audio monitoring applications. When in this mode the display will indicate the channel number that has been assigned using the unIFY Control Panel Software in the top area of the display and the configured channel name for the selected channel in the central viewing area of the displayed.  Figure 8 - Brightness Control If Dante TX audio features are enabled within the unIFY Control Panel software for the unDNEMO, the line input audio will also be routed to the first and second Dante audio transmit channels of the device for audio bridging applications. Dante Controller or another 3 ^rd party application must be used to route the audio to the intended Dante receive device.2.2.4 - All Input Mode
The all input mode allows the user to simultaneously monitor a mix of the audio from the selected Dante network audio channel, the line level analog input and the USB audio input. This is useful in applications that require monitoring audio from multiple, independent sources simultaneously.  Figure 10 - All Input Mode Audio Routing In the All input mode, the USB, and Line input sources are indicated with a checkmark on the title bar of the display when they are connected. The main content area of the screen shows the channel name of the network input audio, with the active channel number shown in the center of the title bar. The channel Up/Down buttons are used to navigate the network audio channel selection just as they operate in the Net Mode. The All Input mode does not support any Dante TX audio routing capabilities.2.3 - Menu Mode Navigation
The unDNEMO features a number of menu screens for showing status and basic device configuration. The menu mode access is also a configurable option that can be disabled for applications where the end user may only require limited access to the devices features. By default, the menu mode access is disabled and must first be enabled from the configuration software. Once enabled, the menu mode may be entered by pressing the "Menu" button. While in menu mode, the display will indicate MENU: in the upper left of the screen. To exit menu mode, press the MENU button again to toggle back to the audio modes. The following diagram depicts the menu navigation. Use the Up and Down channel buttons to cycle between the Display Brightness and Device Info menus. Use the "+" and "-" buttons to adjust the value or navigate the sub-menus for each menu mode screen. flowchart

2.3.1 - Menu Mode: Brightness Control
The brightness control menu allows the user to adjust the brightness level of the display and the keypad LED backlight brightness by adjusting the level with the "+" and "-" buttons respectively.2.3.2 - Menu Mode: Device Info
The device info menus allow the user to view information about the device including the Dante device name that is advertised on the Dante network, the FW version information, the device MAC address and the current device IP address. To navigate between the Device Info menu screen content, use the "+" and "-" buttons respectively. The FW versions screen shows the version information for both the device application processor (shown as FW:) and the Dante product version (shown as D:). The MAC address screen shows the device MAC address and can also be identified by referencing the label placed on the bottom of the unit. The IP address screen shows the current IP address of the device. To change the IP address settings, use Dante Controller or other configuration software that supports general networking configuration for Dante devices.  Figure 12 - Brightness Control  Figure 16 - Device Info: IP3 - System Setup
\*Note: All Attero Tech products are tested using UTP cabling and it is recommended that UTP cabling be used when installing them. STP cabling can be used for installation though care must be taken not introduce grounding issues into the system by doing so.3.1 - Single Port Mode
The unDNEMO is configured for single port mode by default. In this mode the second, non-PoE powered Ethernet port is disabled to provide security for applications that require restricted access to the network. For a device that has been altered from its factory defaults, single port mode may be re-enabled via Dante Controller. Select "Single Port" from the Network Config tab within the Device View window. This will require a reboot of the device.3.2 - Daisy Chain Deployment
The unDNEMO can be deployed in standard Ethernet networks with and without external switching hardware. To enable this switched mode, select "Dual Port - Switched" from the Network Config tab within the Device View window. This will require a reboot of the device. The first example below shows the Dante port of an audio DSP connected to the Ethernet (Dante) port of the unDNEMO at supervisor station 1. Due to the integrated Gigabit Ethernet switch, other unDNEMO devices can be daisy-chained together to eliminate the need for any external Ethernet switches. \*Note: Each unDNEMO would require a local 24V DC power supply connection. Daisy chain of PoE is not possible. flowchart

3.4 - Dante Configuration Notes
In general, there is little to no additional configuration required to successfully utilize the unDNEMO devices in a Dante network other than the initial channel configuration and setup required using the unIFY Control Panel software. However, if the unDNEMO is utilized in a Dante network with audio transmit channels that are already configured to transmit to one or more Dante receive devices, the potential exists that the unDNEMO will not be able to subscribe to the Dante transmitter as the number of unicast receivers assigned to transmitting device and channel may be exceeded. To mitigate this issue, the desired audio channels may be placed in multicast flows such that there is no limit on the number of Dante receive devices. In systems where a large number of unDNEMO devices are utilized, this is the recommended practice to mitigate these channel subscription limitations that exist when only using unicast Dante a audio transmission. Care should always be taken to understand how much multicast bandwidth exists on the Dante network, and utilize the tools within Dante Controller to identify any networking and Dante configuration issues.3.5- Factory Reset
The unDNEMO and unDNEMO-BT have a factory reset option. Using it will reset all the devices parameters back to their factory defaults including all the Dante® settings such as device name, channel names as well as the device settings such as input select. The devices IP address mode is also reset back to getting a dynamic IP. Access to the factory reset button is through a small circular hole on the rear of the unit between the USB and PoE Ethernet connector. To use the factory reset, insert a small screwdriver or paperclip into the hole to activate the factory reset switch. There should be a noticeable "click" when it's activated. Hold the switch in for approximately 10 seconds then release. If the factory reset was successful, a few seconds after releasing the switch, the unit will reset itself.4- Mechanical Information
