• Always use a power supply provided by or specied by Extron. Use of an unauthorized power supply voids all
regulatory compliance certication and may cause damage to the supply and the end product.
• Utilisez toujours une source d’alimentation fournie par Extron. L’utilisation d’une source d’alimentation non
autorisée annule toute conformité réglementaire et peut endommager la source d’alimentation ainsi que l’unité.
• Unless otherwise stated, the AC/DC adapters are not suitable for use in air handling spaces or in wall cavities.
The power supply is to be located within the same vicinity as the Extron AV processing equipment in an ordinary
location, Pollution Degree2, secured to the equipment rack within the dedicated closet, podium, or desk.
• Sauf mention contraire, les adaptateurs AC/DC ne sont pas appropriés pour une utilisation dans les espaces
d’aération ou dans les cavités murales. La source d’alimentation doit être située à proximité de l’équipement de
traitement audiovisuel dans un endroit ordinaire, avec un degré2 de pollution, fixé à un équipement de rack à
l’intérieur d’un placard, d’une estrade, ou d’un bureau.
• The installation must always be in accordance with the applicable provisions of National Electrical Code
ANSI/NFPA 70, article 725 and the Canadian Electrical Code part 1, section 16. The power supply shall not be
permanently xed to building structure or similar structure.
• Cette installation doit toujours être en accord avec les mesures qui s’applique au National Electrical Code
ANSI/NFPA70, article725, et au Canadian Electrical Code, partie1, section16. La source d’alimentation ne devra
pas être fixée de façon permanente à une structure de bâtiment ou à une structure similaire.
Line Outputs — Use a 6-pole 3.5 mm captive screw connector to connect two balanced or unbalanced mono line level
B
devices or one stereo device. Connect these mono or stereo line outputs directly to an amplifier, recorder, or other audio
device. These outputs are listed as receivers on the Dante network (see Dante Transmitters and Receivers on page6).

Audio Power Amplier
with Dante
A physical network is required to share Dante audio channels among Dante-enabled devices like the AXI22AT D. Other devices
capable of sending and receiving audio over a Dante network must be on the same physical network in order to communicate via
Dante (see gure 4 below for an example of a physical Dante Network).
Figure 4. Physical Dante Network Diagram
Dante Network Setup
Use a standard Ethernet cable to connect the AXI 22 AT D to a network via the AT (PoE) port (see figure 1, C on page 1) and
power the device. Launch the Dante Controller program.
Dante Controller auto-discovers all Dante devices on the network and advertises itself to allow other Dante-enabled devices to
communicate with it. The default name consists of the product name followed by a hyphen (AXI22D-) plus the last 6 digits of the
unit MAC address (for example, AXI22D-0744b2). Multiple devices on the same network can present difculty in identifying a
specic device on the network. To avoid confusion, rename each device with a unique and meaningful identier.
Renaming a Dante Device
NOTE: It is essential that Dante devices are named immediately after they are connected to the Dante network and before
audio subscriptions with other devices are established. Existing subscriptions (audio connections) are removed when a
device is renamed.
1. Ensure that the host PC and a single AXI22ATD are connected to the same network.
2. Open Dante Controller. The Dante Controller - Network View screen opens. All Dante devices on the network are
discovered and listed.
3. From the Device menu, select Device View.
4
Page 5
4. The Dante Controller - Device View dialog opens. Select the device from the (Select a Dante Device...)
drop-down list.
NOTE: If the AXI 22 AT D has not been renamed, its default name consists of the product name followed by a hyphen
(AXI22D-) plus the last 6 digits of the unit MAC address (for example, AXI22D-0744b2).
The Device View dialog populates with the selected AXI22ATD information.
5. Click the Device Cong tab (see
6. In the Rename Device panel, enter the new name of the device in the text eld (
in the gure below) to open the device conguration page.

). Device names follow Domain Name

System (DNS) hostname rules (refer to the Dante Controller section of the AXI 22 AT D User Guide for a full list of device
name rules).
7. Click Apply (

). A conrmation prompt opens. Read the prompt carefully.

The new name is written to the AXI22ATD. Repeat as necessary for all devices.
NOTE: After the AXI22ATD is renamed, it remains connected to the network. Subsequent devices should be connected
one at a time and renamed before the next device is connected.
Finding a Dante Device IP Address
To nd the IP address of a Dante device, you need the name of the device (see Renaming a Dante Device on the previous page).
NOTE: If the AXI 22 AT D has not been renamed, its default name consists of the product name followed by a hyphen
(AXI22D-) plus the last 6 digits of the unit MAC address (for example, AXI22D-0744b2).
1. Open Dante Controller.
2. On the Dante Controller Network - View screen, click the Device Info tab (see
3. On the Device Info page, locate the name of the AXI 22 AT D in the Device Name column (
Primary Address column (3).
In the example below, the IP address of the connected AXI 22 AT D is 192.168.254.1.

Dante 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 from the Dante network.
The AXI 22 AT D mic/line inputs are Dante transmitters because the analog audio input is converted into digital audio and
transmitted onto the Dante network.
The AXI 22 AT D line outputs are Dante receivers because they receive digital audio from the Dante network and output that signal
as analog audio.
Network View Layout
Dante transmitters are listed horizontally across the top of the
Network View window (see 1 in the gure to the right). Dante
receivers are listed vertically on the left side of the window (2).
Create a link in the connection matrix (3) to create a subscription
and route audio from a Dante transmitter to a Dante receiver.
1
Routing Transmitters and Receivers
1. Click the + box next to the device with the desired Dante
transmitters (AXI22D-ConfRmA in the example to the right).
The available transmitters display horizontally (1).
2. Click the + box next to the device with the desired Dante
receivers (DMP128Plus-LectureHall in the example to the
right). The available receivers display vertically (2).
3. Click the intersection of the desired transmitter and receiver in
the connection matrix (3).
Example: AXI22D-ConfRmA TableMic-Front is
connected to DMP128P-LectureHall ConfRmA-FrontMic
(shown to the right).
NOTE: Notice the clearly defined transmitter and receiver
2
channel names to help manage connections.
A green check mark at the intersection indicates the
subscription is made. A check mark is also placed next to the
receiver channel (ifa green check mark does not appear, refer
to the Dante Controller section of the AXI 22 AT D User Guide).
3
NOTE: A transmitter can transmit signal to multiple
receivers, but a receiver can only receive signal from
one transmitter.
4. Click the intersection again to disconnect the transmitter from the receiver.
Additional subscriptions between transmitters and receivers can be made or removed using steps 1 through 4 as shown above
(for additional information on Dante Controller operation, see the AXI 22 AT D User Guide at www.extron.com).
