Digital Audio Connection (EtherSound Connectors)

You can use the DME Satellite’s EtherSound connector to input and output digital audio signals, control signals,

and word clock signals. When connecting DME Satellites, make daisy-chain connections between the EtherSound

[OUT] connector → [IN] connector, and the [OUT] connector → [IN] connector.

Audio signals and word clock signals can also be input and output between EtherSound compatible devices and

devices such as mixers in which the AVY16-ES interface card made by the AuviTran SARL has been installed.

Input and output of audio signals and word clock signals can be specified using the “AVS-ESMonitor” application

software made by AuviTran SARL. For details on interface cards and application software, refer to the appropriate

Owner’s Manual.

About AVS-ESMonitor

AVS-ESMonitor is application software made by the AuviTran SARL for the purpose of monitoring and con-

trolling an EtherSound system. It allows you to make various EtherSound settings such as input/output rout-

ing.

NOTE

• DME Satellites and the AVY16-ES can transmit and receive control data such as for internal head amps via EtherSound.

However in some cases, it may not be possible to transmit or receive control data depending on the device in which the MY

card is installed. For details, refer to the operating manual of the device in which the card is installed.

•For details on EtherSound speciﬁcations and the length of the cables that can be used, refer to the following website.
