NetWoRK coNSIdeRAtIoNS ANd LIMItAtIoNS · · Without a VPN, there can be no access from the outside world to any PCM96 that is behind a Network Address Translation (NAT) router. (One-to-One NAT and port forwarding will not work. ) Firewall Considerations: The PCM96 uses port 3804 (udp and tcp) to communicate with the System Architect software. Make sure that you configure your firewalls correctly so that data sent to and from this port number can traverse your network. NetWoRK tRoUbLeShootING If you are having difficulty getting your PCM96 to show up in your System Architect software, here are some things that you can try to resolve the problem. SoFtWARe FIReWALL If the PC that you have installed the System Architect software on has a built-in firewall you need to make sure that you allow the software the ability to talk on your network. Try disabling your firewall and then going offline and back online in the System Architect software. If this fixes the problem, refer to your firewall manufacturer's documentation on how to reconfigure your firewall to allow the System Architect software and/or port 3804 tcp and udp to pass through the firewall. etheRNet LINK Make sure that you have a valid Ethernet connection by looking at the link status lights. Most Ethernet devices will have some kind of indicator that shows the link is present. Check the following connections: · PCM96 device ­ If there is a valid connection on the PCM96 you will see a solid green LED. 21 · · PC running the System Architect software Hub / Switch (if used) If you fail to see a link light try removing and reinserting the cable or trying a different, known good, cable. Also, make sure that you are using the correct cable. PING There is a simple utility built into OS-X that tests the network connection between two devices. At the prompt enter ping -c 4 <IP address of your PCM96> and press Enter. The data should appear something like this: PING <IP address of your PCM96>: 56 data bytes 64 bytes from <IP address of your PCM96>: icmp_seq=0 ttl=62 time=1. 118 ms 64 bytes from <IP address of your PCM96>: icmp_seq=1 ttl=62 time=1. 093 ms 64 bytes from <IP address of your PCM96>: icmp_seq=2 ttl=62 time=1. 067ms 64 bytes from <IP address of your PCM96>: icmp_seq=3 ttl=62 time=1. 042ms --- <IP address of your PCM96> ping statistics --4 packets transmitted, 4 packets received, 0% packet loss round-trip min/avg/max = 1. 042/1. 08/1. 118 ms If you get a "Reply from" response from the IP address that you were pinging in a timely manner, it means that you have a valid network connection between the two devices. If you receive a "No route to host" or "0 packets received" message, this indicates that your computer is not communicating with the device. 22 SySteM MeNU The System Menu lets you adjust several settings in the PCM96. To access the System Menu, press the Select knob while a System Preset is loaded. To enter a sub-menu, highlight it with the Select knob and press the Select knob. Options contain values that you can adjust (indicated by a colon followed by a value, for example, "Audio Source: ANALOG"). To adjust an option's value, turn the corresponding knob: Knob A for an option on the first line, Knob B for an option on the second line, and Knob C for an option on the third line. Press the Back button at any time to save your changes and move one level up through the menus and sub-menus. AUdIo SetUP The Audio Setup sub-menu contains the following options: Audio Source This is a global setting that configures the PCM96 to accept ANALOG or AES input. Clock Rate Select your clock rate here, when the wordclock source is set to INTERNAL. Analog Setup The Analog Setup sub-menu lets you adjust the following parameters: Analog Input Level - Increases or decreases the incoming analog signal before it reaches the processor(s). Analog Output Level - Increases or decreases the outgoing analog signal after it leaves the processor(s). Analog Type IVTM - Enable or disable the Type IV conversion system here. The dbx® Type IV Conversion System is a proprietary analogto-digital (A/D) conversion process that combines the best attributes of digital conversion and analog recording processes to preserve the essence of the analog signal when it is converted to a digital format. AES Setup The AES Setup sub-menu gives you the status of the following AES information: Data Validity - "Valid" indicates the data is OK.
