Setup
Reference and audio I/O setup, networking, and audio mixer configuration.
Network Setup
The control network connection for the AudioEdge™ XLR-Analog-Input/Output is separate from the AoIP Primary and Secondary ports and allows you to interface with the system, manage setup files, and collect logs.
Ross Platform Manager Connections
Ross Platform Manager can store and load configurations onto your system remotely, as well as provide software licenses. This allows for a centralized management of system configurations and software options.

  - FTP/SFTP Connection
- System Access
  Enable or disable system access and control methods such as FTP.
- Reference
  The flexible reference system allows for either video reference or word clock to be used to sync audio across multiple devices.
- Audio Inputs
  Audio sources come into the system through embedded audio (SDI), analog XLRs (XLR-Analog-Input only), MADI (SFP), or audio over network (AoIP or Dante®). Internal mixer outputs can also be used as sources.
- Audio Outputs
  Audio sources come out of the system through embedded audio (SDI), analog XLRs (XLR-Analog-Output only), MADI (SFP), or audio over network (AoIP/Dante®). Internal mixer outputs can also be used as output sources.
- Licenses
  Software options allows you to expand the functionality or resources available to the system. These options can either be licensed at the time you purchase your system, purchased and installed later on, or temporarily licensed through the Ross Platform Manager (RPM).
- GPI Control (XLR-Analog-Output Only)
  General Purpose Interface (GPI) is a high/low voltage signalling protocol that allows the system to send simple commands to an external device, or receive commands from a device. Each pin on the GPI is set as either high (+5 Volts), or low (0 Volts), and it is the switching between high and low that sends commands to the external device, or to the system.
- MIDI Controller
  The MIDI controller is used to control the RAVE audio mixer. The controller connects to RAVE through DashBoard.

Ross Platform Manager Connections

Ross Platform Manager can store and load configurations onto your system remotely, as well as provide software licenses. This allows for a centralized management of system configurations and software options.

A Ross Platform Manager (RPM) server can connect to the system over ethernet to download the working set or upload a new working set over FTP, as well as allow the system to request software licenses. An uploaded working set is immediately applied to the system when it is detected.

Note:

RPM cannot recall the RPM Licensing set to request or release RPM Licenses on the system.

Refer to the RPM documentation for more information on orchestration.

Note:

RPM Orchestration is set up on the RPM server by adding the IP address of the system you want to control. RPM Licensing is set up on the system by adding the IP address of the RPM that you want to get licenses from. Refer to Ross Platform Manager Licensing for more information on RPM Licensing.
