Before using this unit, carefully read the leaet “USING THE UNIT SAFELY.” These sections provide important

information concerning the proper operation of the unit. Additionally, in order to feel assured that you have

gained a good grasp of every feature of your new unit, read Owner’s Manual in its entirety. This manual should

be saved and kept on hand as a convenient reference.

Attaching the Connector Covers

If you are using commercially available Ethernet cables at the PRIMARY and SECONDARY

ports, attach the included connector covers.

* Be sure to use shielded LAN cables (STP).

MEMO

If you're using XLR-type RJ45 Ethernet cables, detach the connector covers.

Be careful to keep removed connector covers from becoming lost.

Installing the Expansion interface

Install the expansion interface on a compatible device.

Important Notes on Handling

To avoid the risk of damage to internal components that can be caused by static electricity,

please carefully observe the following whenever you handle the expansion interface.

• Before you touch the expansion interface, always rst grasp a metal object (such as a

water pipe), so you are sure that any static electricity you might have been carrying

has been discharged.

• When handling the expansion interface, grasp it only by the panel or the expansion

interface’s edges. Avoid touching any of the electronic components or connectors.

• Before you connect any cables, make sure they do not carry a static electricity charge.

Such charges can be transmitted, for example, if the other end of the cable has been

in contact with a carpet (or other object) where there is a static electricity buildup.

• Save the bag in which the expansion interface was originally shipped, and put the

expansion interface back into it whenever you need to store or transport it.

Checking the MAC Address

Before you install the expansion interface, make a written note of the MAC address.

The MAC address is printed on the body of the expansion interface. (Refer to the gure below.)

MEMO

• You can use Dante Controller to check the MAC address of an expansion interface on

the network.

• Default device name

The last six characters of the MAC address are used as the device name. By default,

Dante Controller recognizes the name of the device in which the expansion interface

is installed as “XI-DANTE-XXXXXX” (where the X’s are the last six characters of the MAC

address).

You can use Dante Controller to change the device name later.

Installing

NOTE

• Before installing the expansion interface, you must rst always turn o the unit where

installing and unplug its power cord from the power outlet.

• When restarting the device with the expansion interface installed, wait several

seconds before turning on the power.

1. Loosen the EXPANSION SLOT mounting screws (2)

on the device where you’re installing, and detach

the panel cover.

2. Insert the expansion interface into the EXPANSION SLOT.

* Do not touch any of the expansion interface pathways or

connection terminals.

* Never use excessive force when installing a expansion

interface. If it doesn’t t properly on the rst

attempt, remove the expansion interface

and try again.

3. Secure the expansion interface in place using

the mounting screws (2).

MEMO

Downloading Dante Controller and Making the Minimum Settings

After you install the expansion interface, the following operations must be performed.

• Download Dante Controller (gratis), and install and set it up on your computer.

• Use Dante Controller to make the following settings.

- Adjust the sampling frequency for each Dante device so that they match.

- Make the settings for audio routing.

Panel Descriptions

1 2 3

No. Name Explanation

LINK/ACT

indicator

This indicates the communication status of the Dante device.

Lighted: A connection with the Dante device has been established.

Flashing: Data communication with the Dante device is taking place.

Dark: No connection with the Dante device has been established.

SECONDARY

port

This is an RJ45 connector compatible with gigabit Ethernet. You connect

a Dante device here.

Functioning changes depending on the mode setting. (*1)

Setting Explanation

Redundant You use this when a redundant connection is needed.

The same Dante audio is sent to both the PRIMARY and

SECONDARY ports, and so audio remains uninterrupted

even if the connection to one or the other port is broken.

Switched

Operation is as a standard switch port.

*1: The mode setting is made using Dante Controller. For details, refer to

the Dante Controller User Guide.

PRIMARY

port

This is an RJ45 connector compatible with gigabit Ethernet. Here you

connect a Dante device as the main port.

CONTROL

port

This is an RJ45 connector compatible with gigabit Ethernet. Here you

connect a computer for using Dante Controller to make settings for the

Dante network.

1G indicator This lights up when a connection at 1 Gbps is established.

LINK/ACT

indicator

This indicates the status of communication with the connected device.

Lighted: A connection with the connected device has been established.

Flashing: Data communication with the connected device is taking place.

Dark: No connection with the connected device has been established.

* When making connections to the ports, use Ethernet cables rated at Cat 5e (Category 5e)

or higher.

Features of Dante Networks

Dante is audio network technology developed by Audinate that uses network infrastructure

supporting Gigabit Ethernet.

Dante makes it possible to achieve high-performance digital media networks that meet

the demands for sound quality and performance needed in professional live performances,

audio/visual equipment, broadcasting, and recording systems.

The main features of Dante networks are as follows.

• Transmission of up to 512 channels (at 48 kHz/24 bits)

* XI-DANTE supports a maximum of 64 channels.

• Low latency

• Ability to use standard network equipment

• Accurate sample-frequency synchronization

• Support for redundant networks

If the primary network experiences trouble, operation automatically switches to the

secondary network.

• Automatic detection of Dante devices on the network, with support for plug and play

• Ability to make advanced network settings with simplicity by using the Dante

Controller software

Attaching the Ferrite Cores

Attach a ferrite core to each Ethernet cable connected to the ports.

The ferrite cores are needed to prevent electromagnetic noise. Be sure to attach a ferrite

core to each of the cables connected to the ports.

1. Open an included ferrite core by spreading apart the tabs at two places.

2. Attach the ferrite core at a location near the plug base.

Close the ferrite core by pressing down on each tab until it clicks into place.

MEMO

Connect the plug at the end where the ferrite core is attached to one of the ports on the

expansion interface.

Thank you, and congratulations on your choice of the XI-DANTE expansion

interface.

Installing this expansion interface in a professional audio device from

Roland lets you expand audio input and output of using the Dante audio

network standard.

You can transmit audio data on a maximum of 64 channels during

48-kHz/24-bit operation or 32 channels during 96-kHz/24-bit operation.

For information on devices on which the XI-DANTE expansion interface

can be installed, check the following Roland website.

By default, the PRIMARY/SECONDARY ports are tted with connector caps. Remove these

connector caps when you use the PRIMARY/SECONDARY ports.

Be careful to keep removed connector caps from becoming lost.
