Gateway and Gateway 4 Manual v1.5

 

The Outputs panel can be configured to support either analog or digital output types for outputs 1 to 4 (Gateway 4) or outputs 1 to 8 (Gateway 8/16). Configuration of the digital output type, either AES3 or AoIP, is global and configured for all 16 Gateway outputs using the Audio Options panel.

 

 

 

Selecting the Global Digital Output Type

To select the digital output type for all outputs:

 

1.Open the HTML5 Toolbox Web-GUI and click Audio in the Menu Bar, then click Audio Options to display the Audio Options panel.

2.Click the Digital Output Type drop-down menu and select either Audio over IP or AES3, then click Save.

 

 

Select Output Type as Analog or Digital

To select either analog or digital output types for outputs 1 to 8 (in pairs):

 

1.Open the HTML5 Toolbox Web-GUI and click Audio in the Menu Bar, then click Outputs to display the Outputs panel.

2.Click the Settings button.

3.Select from Analog or Digital (AES3 or Native AoIP Protocols).

 

Output Send / Return Balance

The balance between send and return audio signals fed to each output can be individually adjusted using each output slider. This provides flexibility and the ability to feed input sources and decoded incoming signals to outputs as required.

 

In many situations incoming Return decoder audio will be the only audio fed from an output, however there may also be a requirement to mix input audio with return audio. Or input (Send) audio may be fed directly to an output for AES67/ST 2110-30 streaming.

 

Output Assignments for AoIP Source Audio Streams

When streaming in AoIP mode (e.g. AES67, ST 2110-30, Livewire+, RAVENNA), the hard coded Matrix Editor output channel assignments depend on the stream configuration mode, as displayed in the following table.

 

 

Verify audio is displayed on the PPMs in the Sources panel before commencing AES67 streaming.
