WARNING: A network switch is not included but required to interconnection multiple system parts and a laptop/PC for configuration. You may use any Ethernet switch for this purpose!

Introduction

This manual will give you an overview of the functionality of the AXUM digital audio system and all its features. It is advisable to read this manual at least once before touching any control, or even thinking about hooking up the system. We know that this is actually the first thing you want to do, but please do not and discipline yourself to read the manual first.
The manual gives all sorts of valuable information before getting started and it saves you from getting all sorts of questions. After installing this manual can be used as a reference.
In the first chapter, we will give you an overview of the AXUM and its features.
In this way, you have an impression on how to implement the system in your application.
The next chapters will deal with interconnecting the various parts of the system and its external interfacing with your equipment
When installing and wiring the AXUM, you can finalize its interfacing with the instructions in the following chapters.

System overview

The Axum is a digital modular audio system that can solve your digital mixing/routing requirements in your broadcast studio or in your complete broadcast facility. The modular system can be used in all your mixing/routing applications like on-air broadcast, self-op, production and voice tracking.
4.1 System parts
To make a functional mixing console you require at least a 19” rack with a DSP card (32 stereo channels), the desired I/O cards and a control surface that can control all the mixing power. The connection between the 19” rack(s) and control surface(s) rely on a network protocol that is been called Mamba Net. Mamba Net works on Ethernet layer 2, there for no IP-addresses have to be setup for the ‘real-time’ functionality.
WARNING: Do not connect multiple AXUM engines/racks in the same Ethernet network (Layer 2)To connect surface(s) and 19” rack(s) you can built on this known Ethernet standard with common switches till advanced managed switches with all the security solutions as there are STP (spanning tree protocol), Trucking etc.
For (remote) configuration the well known we browser is used to access the consoles webserver. Of course this happens on a IP-based level of communication, which makes it possible to configure system over the internet.
The defaults IP-addresses for configuration pages are:
http://192.168.0.200 for the configuration in main menu
http://192.168.0.23x for the controller surface configuration. (for the first surface set x to 4, for a second surface set x to 5, etc.).
To prevent other people to access the Axum configuration pages you need to logon.
The default logon is:
Username: service
Password: service
This account may change, which is explained in chapter 6.2.6 (Change web accounts).
Network specialists can find some more information in chapter 18 (Appendix A).

4.2 Communication

All control communication takes place with Mamba Net and gives the surface flexibility and power to the AXUM digital audio system. To understand the AXUM digital audio system it would help to know some principles of Mamba Net.
Mamba Net definitions:
– Objects
A fader, switch will have to trigger an action in the AXUM digital audio system. In Mamba Net, we call these faders and switches ‘objects’.
– Nodes
In the hardware the faders and switches are grouped on modular blocks (think of a single PCB), such blocks are represented as ‘nodes’ in Mamba Net.
– Engine
In the Axum digital system the engine is in fact your mixing console. The functions available in the ‘engine’ can connect to one or more objects found in your network.
In practice, this means you can connect any surface element like switches and faders to any function of your mixing console(s). From now on, you can design your own functionality at the control surface.
Information for manufacturers and developers is located at http://www.mambanet.org/ , it is possible to make your own communication with the mixing system; we have a Mamba Net library available for Windows (DLL) and Linux (lib).
For professional developers it is possible to buy a Manufacture ID from D&R so you are able to make your own equipment compatible with the Mamba Net protocol. Secondly, local radio stations can use manufacturer ID 0xFFFF for some custom implementations.
(All manufacturer IDs are unique except the 0xFFFF, which is free for ‘in- house’ implementation)

4.4 Principle of operation

4.4.1 AXUM system
The AXUM system will be build up around the matrix/router that gives a lot of routing flexibility. Up to 4 DSP cards can be inserted to create mixing power as requested. For example, you can create with one AXUM system (equipped with one DSP card):
– A single mixing console with 32 stereo modules and 16 stereo busses
– Multiple mixing consoles (maximal 4), 3 consoles are used in our example:
1 consoles with 16 stereo modules and 6 stereo busses
1 consoles with 12 stereo modules and 6 stereo busses
1 console 4 stereo modules and 4 stereo busses
This makes clear we do not talk over a ‘mixing console’, the AXUM is an audio- platform!
Depending on the configuration, you can make your own studio console(s)/surface functionality. Al this power is controlled and configured by the AXUM engine. This engine configuration is described in detail later on.
4.4.2 Mixing console
As mentioned before the configuration is done within the Axum engine, now we will give a short overview/introduction on the structure of the mixing console(s) platform solution of the engine.
For the configuration of the busses, monitor busses and modules you can setup to which console it should belong (1-4). Finally the engine will extract a ‘assignment’ picture from this information which shows clearly the console blocks. 4.4.2.1 Sources
Each module can receive audio from the matrix using so called ‘sources’. A source is given a name, left/right physical input and some additional settings (think of phantom, pad, relight settings). For example if we make source ‘MIC1’ with phantom on we can route this to module 1 and/or module 13. So the MIC 1 is used at console 1 but also at console 2 (or 3).
4.4.2.2 Destinations
Audio is sent to physical outputs by so called ‘destinations’. A destinations given a name, left/right physical outputs and some additional settings (default audio-source, N-1 etc.). For examples we make destinations ‘Line out 1’ and ‘Dig out 1’ which both get the audio from ‘Prog A’.
4.4.2.3 Console/Surface functionality
After the consoles are set-up/configured and the inputs and outputs are set-up with the correct settings of sources/destinations you can start using the console functionality. Which functionality is available depends on the configuration of the system.
It is important to make the required ‘real-time’ functionality available via the surface and rack configuration menu’s. Actually here you define the ‘knob functions’.
4.4.2.4 Console startup/Presets
At the console start up it will load the last backup or the programmed defaults, this depends on a setting in global configuration.
The programmed defaults are:
– The information set within the we browser pages
– For the modules ‘module preset 1A’ is selected by default.
Further in live use of the console(s) you can make use of presets:
– Processing presets
– Module presets
– Console presets
processing preset:
A processing preset contains module-settings (think of EQ, Dynamics etc. etc.).
When a source is selected by the control surface encoder, the assigned default processing preset is loaded.
Module preset:
The module preset 1A t/m 4B defines a combination of: Source, Processing preset and Routing preset.
In this case if module preset 1B is recalled:
– The configured ‘preset 1B source’ is set on the module
– The corresponding processing preset is set on the module. Processing preset field that not override the module will set according to the module configuration settings (if ‘Use at source select’ is active).
– The routing as given by ‘module preset 1B’ is restored.
Console preset:
The console preset consists of two main parameters:
– It loads Module preset 1A, 1B, 2A, 2B, 3A, 3B, 4A or 4B.
– It loads a buss/monitor buss preset.
Here also you can define if a separate buss is used within the preset (the configuration setting ‘Use’ – Yes/No).
In general you can say:
– The console will startup in the defaults like given in the webpage.
– When a source is selected (can also be in the startup-defaults) the corresponding processing preset is loaded.
– When a module preset is loaded, the complete module settings can be preset.
– With the console preset you are able to change: module-settings , buss master eon monitor buss settings.

Control Surfaces

The engine will recognize the control surfaces of the AXUM digital audio system as ‘nodes with objects’. Each object can connect to an engine (mixing console) function.
Below you see an example of a control surface and a short description of the node/object structure.

This control surface holds 4 user interfaces nodes:
– 3x four fader panel node
– 1x monitor buss panel node
The ‘four fader panel node’ holds 84 objects:
– 4x Display upper line
– 4x Display lower line
– 4x Encoder
– 4x Encoder-push
– 32x LEDs
– 32x switches with LEDs (16 small, 16 large)
– 4x fader
The ‘monitor buss panel node’ holds 61 objects:
– 1 chip card
– 54 switches with LED’s
– 1 encoder
– 1 encoder push
– 4 potentiometers

AXUM Engine

The engine of the Axum drives all audio processing/routing and from the surfaces and remote locations, it can be controlled using Mamba Net. Therefore it is required that you setup the engine/system with your settings before it will work according your requirements. Of course, we deliver the system in a default configuration that will cover 90% of the functionality you wish.
Setting up the engine (your mixing console) is done using your web browser.
Simply enter the IP address of the 19” rack in your browser and log-on to the configuration pages.
By default the IP Address is: http://192.168.0.200
(at the first startup you can use a network or cross wire with a static IP given to your network interface, e.g.
192.168.0.10).
On the Axum website, you find all necessary options to configure your system as full functioning mixing console(s), it’s the most to start with the Console 1-4 configuration. In this menu you may easy step from top to bottom.

6.1 Console 1-4 configuration

This pages shows all configuration possibilities to setup your console 1-4. Your system is preconfigured but you may step through the menus for personal adjustments.

6.1.1 IP/Clock configuration

6.1.1.1 IP
Here you can setup the network settings to be compatible with the required settings in your situation and you can set the time zone to where you are.
It’s possible to change the IP, subnet, gateway and DNS server address by clicking on the address.
For more information on IP addressing: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IP_address
WARNING: These setting become active after reboot.
6.1.1.2 Engine Mamba Net servers
To enable and/or disable a specific server for Ethernet, UDP and/or TCP you can select here de y/n field. Also the used UDP and TCP port can be changed to a non default value.
WARNING: These setting become active after reboot.

6.1.1.3 Clock
To change the time zone, click on the used time zone (in our example ‘Europe/Amsterdam’). You can select the desired time zone in the list box.
The AXUM uses the NTP protocol for accurate clock synchronization. In the section ‘current’ you find the IP address of the used ‘clock master’ and its ‘stratum’. For more information on NTP: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_Time_Protocol
When IP and DNS settings are setup correct, the AXUM will automatically synchronize to a pool of time servers. The AXUM is also able to use a GPS receiver via USB for time synchronization. next, the AXUM may function as a NTP server for the surfaces. There for, on the webserver of the control surfaces you can configure the ‘optional nap server’ and fill in the IP address of the nap server (e.g. 192.168.0.200).
Set date/time may be used on system without any synchronization to set the correct time.
In the popup window it is possible to give to correct time and if you click on the ‘day’ it will become direct changed/activated.
Remember that all other changes (NTP and IP settings) will become effective after reboot.
6.1.2 Global configuration
Some overall system settings can be filled in on this webpage.

Sample rate
You can select a sample rate of 32 kHz, 44.1 kHz eon 48kHz. According to this setting, the filters are setup so you have to make sure to select the sample rate you work with. Also when using an external clock.
Extern(al) clock
If you want to use the external clock (Frame clock in) you can turn it on here.
Headroom
The internal headroom is fixed at 20 dB, to adjust the headroom on a local input/output you can give an offset level to the sources/destinations or at the rack configuration.
Fader top level|
You can make the fader work with or without 10 dB fader reserve. In the last situation the faders will be 0 dB (unity gain) when the fader is fully up (maximum position).
Auto momentary
Most switch functions can work in a auto-momentary mode. When set to yes a knob will function latching when pressed shortly. But with a long press (>750 MS) the knob reacts like a momentary switch (function active while pressed).
Startup state
Here you can select to use a known startup state which is the ‘programmed defaults’ or use a ‘backup of the last situations
Programmed defaults are the defaults as setup in the web-configuration. An backup of the console is saved once a minute, which means you will return to (almost) the last situation.
Console information
Here you can share some details to have an easier identification in a multi- studio environment.

6.1.3 Mix buss configuration
You have to setup the busses to create the names, console assignment and functionality of the Busses. Here we see the setup for a single console buss setup:

Label
The name given to this buss.
2 Mono busses
It is possible to make 2 mono busses from one stereo buss. All buss-sends, to this buss, on the module’s will now include stereo to mono summing.
Master pre/post
You can choose the buss to be pre or post ON, level (comparable with pre/post fader) and balance (could be your pan-pot).
Master level/state
This setting is used as programmed startup level, so the buss masters are in a known state.
Interlock
If you make a buss interlock, only 1 module can be assigned at the same time.
Exclusive
When routing to an Dump/Rec exclusive buss is made, the routing to all other busses on that module will be disabled. This is useful for a so called ‘dump bus
The selections COMM technician and COMM producer are used if you want to make a communication buss. Such buss makes it possible to let presenters talk with hybrid or to talk with an technician/producer.
Buss reset
This setting can be used to create a CUE/PFL buss with auto-reset (CUE Reset).
If you have multiple studios and CUE/PFL busses you may assign reset to multiple busses.
Console
You can select to which console a buss belongs.
6.1.4 Monitor buss configuration
Per DSP card, you have 4 stereo monitor busses that can be used. They need a name, console assignment and configuration so they can work properly:
Label
Here you give a name to this monitor buss
Interlock
Yes means only one source is active at the same time, on this monitor buss.
Default selection
If the last selected source is turned off it will always go to the default selection.
This selection is also your startup default.
Automatic switching.
You can tell the Engine that a monitor buss switches automatically when the ‘source buss’ is activated.
Also known as ‘PFL to CRM’. If you have two separate studios’ you can have multiple automatically switched busses (e.g. PFL 1 and PFL 2).
When to mix buss is an exclusive buss, the monitor buss will also switch ‘exclusive’; normally automatic switching will be summing with the set up ‘Dim level’.
Dim level
When you have set the monitor buss to switch automatically, the source signal is dimmed by the filled in level and the buss that is switched on to the Monitor buss is at unity gain (0 dB).
Console
You can select to which console a monitor buss belongs.

6.1.5 Source configuration

The 19” rack unit can accept various I/O cards. These inserted I/O cards can accept audio in various formats.
This is because the audio connected to the I/O cards can have different channel relations (mono, stereo). To create a user readable label you have to configure sources.
Such a source is the entity you can select to be the input of your module in the mixing console. See below for a simple source list example:

Nr
Here you can reposition the destination to make the list in a convenient order.
Label
Name of the source you are creating.
Input 1/2
Here you select the physical slot and input of the card you want to assign to this source.|
For mono sources you selected the same input for left and right.
Phantom
The phantom power for this source is turned on/off at startup. (this field is only available when the source-phantom function is also assigned to an object; e.g. via rack configuration)
Pad
The PAD for this source is turned on/off at startup. (this field is only available when the source-pad function is also assigned to an object; e.g. via rack configuration)
Gain
The source gain for this source is at startup set to this level. (this field is only available when the source-gain function is also assigned to an object; e.g. via rack configuration)
Processing preset
If this source is selected on a module, by the ‘source select’ function (not via module or console preset),this processing preset is ‘set’ on the module.
Trigger star t
Here you can configure how the source start/stop change is triggered:
– Dedicated, the module fader and on are not triggering start/stop only the dedicated start/stop controllers.
– Module fader on, the fader on will trigger the start as well.
– Module on, the on switch will trigger the start as well.
– Module fader on & on, the fader must be open and on active then the start is triggered.
Dedicated start/stop objects will work in parallel with these ‘trigger start/stop’ modes
Trigger stop
Here you can configure how the source start/stop change is triggered:
– Dedicated, the module fader and on are not triggering start/stop only the dedicated start/stop controllers.
– Module fader off, the fader off will trigger the stop as well.
– Module off, the on switch will trigger the stop as well.
– Module fader off & off, the fader must be closed or on inactive then the stop is triggered.
Dedicated start/stop objects will work in parallel with these ‘trigger start/stop’ modes
Red-light.
When this source becomes active on a module, the corresponding Red-light buss becomes active.
Monitor destination mute
When this source becomes active on a module, the corresponding monitor buss will be muted.
Related destination
When you give a source a related destination it is possible to use TB functions on the module and communication features from the GPIOs. For example you will make the relation announcer microphone to announcer headphone.
Delete
When you click on this column the source will be deleted (and also all references are deleted).
Create a new source
By clicking on this link a popup will appear where you have to setup the physical inputs and label for the new source.

6.1.6 Extern source configuration
Each DSP card can handle four stereo monitor busses (with 4 DSP cards a max of 16 stereo monitor busses is possible). For each DSP card you can configure 8 external stereo sources, beyond the 16 stereo mixing busses which are fixed available in the monitor section.

Safe
Extern source can be configured to be ‘interlock safe’.
Normally only one buss or external input can be active on the monitor buss if configured to be ‘interlock’. But sometimes it is important your signal will not disappear if another CRM-source is selected, in that case you can set the external source to be ‘safe’.
Source
Here you can select which signal routes to this ‘external inputs
You can choose:
– Input sources (Mic, line, dig etc. etc.)
– Mix busses
– Monitor busses
– Insert outs (of modules)
– N-1 signals (for a single module)

6.1.7 Destination configuration

The 19” rack unit can accept various I/O cards. With these cards, you can send audio from the Axum digital audio system to the audio format you require. Because the audio connected to the I/O cards can have different channel relations (mono, stereo) a combination has to be made. A user readable label has to be created to configure destinations. Such destination is the entity you can select to be the output of a mixing buss of the mixing console. See an example destination list:

Nr
Here you can reposition the destination to make the list in a convenient order.
Label
Name of the destination you are setting up.
Output 1/2
Here you select the physical slot and output of the card you want to assign to this destination.
For a mono output you have to select only one of the left or right outputs to a physical slot/Ch.
Level
The destination level for this source is at startup set to this level; for example to adjust headroom for a single output. (this field is only available when the destination-level function is also assigned to an object; e.g. via rack configuration)
Default signal from
This destination/output will send audio from the default selected source (except if a N-1 is active, then automatically the N-1 signal is selected).
You can choose:
– Input sources (Mic, line, dig etc. etc.)
– Mix busses
– Monitor busses
– Insert outs (of modules)
Default signal routing
Here you can choose which signal feeds the physical outputs:
Stereo (if no mix minus source is assigned):
Output left and right received their corresponding signal Left:
Output left and right both receive the left signal.
Right:
Output left and right both receive the right signal.
Mono (only if a mix minus source is assigned):
The mix minus signal is always a mono signal.
N-1 from/mix minus source
When the selected source is assigned to a module, this destination automatically creates an N-1 using the selected source. There is no limitation on the amount of N-1s, every module is able to make its own N-1.
Delete
When you click on this column the destination will be deleted (and also all references are deleted).
Create a new destination
By clicking on this link a popup will appear where you have to setup the physical outputs and label for the new destination. When you select the same output for both channels, the system will use it on the left output and set the right to none.

6.1.8 Talkback configuration

This page makes it possible to select the sources for the 16 talkback busses available in the AXUM.
A talkback buss may be summed/switched to any destination of the AXUM system, this will not require any DSP resources.

Source
Here you can select which signal routes to a talkback buss.
You can choose:
– Input sources (Mic, line, dig etc. etc.)
– Mix busses
– Monitor busses
– Insert outs (of modules)
– N-1 signals (for a single module)

6.1.9 Processing presets

It is possible to set the module processing when a source is selected (via ‘source select’ or a module preset) , the information for this functionality is stored in the processing presets.

Nr
Here you can reposition the preset to make the list in a convenient order.
Label
Name of the preset.
Settings.
Shows a new page where you can configure the preset.
Delete
When you click on this column the preset will be deleted (and also all references are deleted).

(Be aware with a low threshold, you may generate a lot of gain) A pop up screen in the right up corner will show the EQ settings as well as the dynamics settings

6.1.10 Module assignment

Modules can be assigned to one of the 4 consoles, after this and a correct assignment of the busses (in buss configuration) to the consoles you may click ‘generate’ to make a correct assignment configuration.
Afterwards you can override the generate assignments by clicking the ‘y’/’n’ fields. For example you can create a buss that is available to all consoles.

6.1.11 Module configuration
The module configuration makes it possible to give modules a default setting (after powering on) and you can also configure module presets 1A/1B, 2A/2B, 3A/3B, 4A/4B.

Console
Shows to which console the module is assigned.
Preset 1A/1B, 2A/2B, 3A/3B, 4A/4B

6.1.11.1 Module configuration page
On this page you can setup the default module configuration, used at startup if programmed default is selected in global configuration. If you have made your settings and you would like to copy them to all modules in this console (for example if you want to use the same EQ center frequencies) you can simply hit ‘To all console x modules’ after you made and checked the settings on the current module.

6.1.11.2 Module preset 1A/1B, 2A/2B, 3A/3B, 4A/4B

Here you select the source, processing preset and routing preset that is used when module preset 1A/1B, 2A/2B, 3A/3B, 4A/4B is selected. After a click on ‘routing’ a popup appears with the routing possibilities (this depends on the console assignment).

Source
If you click here a popup appears with a list of all available sources. Select the source you want to use in this module preset.
Processing
If you click here a popup appears with a list of all available processing presets. Select the source you want to use in this module preset.
Routing Preset

Override module
If set to no, the module setting will not be affected by this preset. If set to yes, this preset will change the settings of the module for the corresponding buss.
Level
If the override is turned to yes, this will set the send level to the buss for this module when current preset is selected.
State
If the override is turned to yes, this will set the buss state to ‘on’ or ‘off’ for this module when this module preset is select.
Pre/Post
If the override is turned to yes, this will set the buss pre or post for this module when this module preset is select.
Balance
If the override is turned to yes, this will set the buss balance for this module when this module preset is select.
To all console 1-4 module
With this link you can copy the current settings to the same routing preset (1A/1B, 2A/2B, 3A/3B, 4A/4B) at all modules of the console where this module is assigned to.

• Ignore module state
When presets are recalled, it checks the module state to prevent recalling ‘onia’ signals. The preset will wait till the module is switched off air.
If the ignore module state function is switched to yes, the presets will not check the module state and forces the recall to be done always!

6.1.11.3 Processing
These are the programmed processing defaults for the modules. Depending on the startup settings these processing defaults will be used at startup (programmed defaults in global configuration).
The field ‘Use at source select’ determines if the default module processing in the source configuration is used when a source is assigned via the module source select functionality and no processing preset is assigned in the ‘source configuration’.
The following state/value processing sections are available:

Digital Gain level
You can enter a default gain level for each module and determine if the default state must be on or off.
Low cut frequency
You can enter a default frequency of the low cut filter and determine if the default state must be on or off.
Insert
You may select a source to be your insert return for this module and determine if the default state must be on or off.
Phase
Set the phase default settings (Left only, right only or both channels are phase reversed). It is also possible to determine if the default state must be on or off.
Mono
Give the mono settings default values (left, right or mono-sum of left and right). It is also possible to determine if the default state must be on or off.
EQ
By clicking on EQ you can set the default equalizer settings it will appear in a popup window. The state may be used to set the EQ default on or off.
Dynamics
This setting is used as default, the popup shows the parameters to setup. The state may be used to set the dynamics to be default on or off
Module
Here you may set the default module level at startup, the state will be the default module on/off state.

The ‘Ignore module state’ function makes it possible to load a processing preset even if the module is active (fader open and module on). This may be necessary if you use presets on a ‘virtual console’.

6.1.11.4 Routing

The field ‘Use at source select’ determines if the default module routing is used when a source is assigned via the module source select functionality .
The following routing sections are available:

Buss level
You may predefine the send level of a module to the busses (e.g. Aux send).
Buss status
You have to setup the startup status for the busses. With this setting you set the buss routing (e.g. Program on/off or CUE on/off).
Buss Pre/Post
It’s possible to have pre/post selection per module, the startup setting can be configured here.

Surface(s) website

To set the time displayed in the meter of the console.
Simply enter the IP address of the console in your browser and log-on to the configuration pages.
By default the IP Address is: http://192.168.0.234
(at first time startup you can use a network or cross wire with a static IP given to your network interface, e.g. 192.168.0.10).
On the console website, you find the ip/clock configuration:

7.1 IP/Clock configuration

7.1.1.1 IP
Here you can setup the network settings to be compatible with the required settings in your situation and you can set the time zone to where you are.
It’s possible to change the IP, subnet, gateway and DNS server address by clicking on the address.
For more information on IP addressing: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IP_address
7.1.1.2 Pre-configured engine connections
An surface may connect to a rack via different protocols, here you may select the destination IP and port to connect to.
In the field ‘MambaNet over’ you select the protocol to use, where Ethernet may be used in a LAN (with only one rack) and UDP or TCP may be used in LAN and WAN; even with multiple consoles hooked up in the LAN (They should have ‘MambaNet over Ethernet’ enabled).
7.1.1.3 Clock
To change the time zone, click on the used time zone (in our example ‘Europe/Amsterdam’). You can select the desired time zone in the list box.
The AXUM uses the NTP protocol for accurate clock synchronization. In the section ‘current’ you find the IP address of the used ‘clock master’ and its ‘stratum’. For more information on NTP: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IP_address
When IP and DNS settings are setup correct, the AXUM will automatically synchronize to a pool of time servers. The AXUM is also able to use a GPS receiver via USB for time synchronization. next, the AXUM may function as a NTP server for the surfaces. There for, on the webserver of the control surfaces you can configure the ‘optional ntp server’ and fill in the IP address of the ntp server (e.g. 192.168.0.200).
Set date/time may be used on system without any synchronization to set the correct time.
In the popup window it is possible to give to correct time and if you click on the ‘day’ it will become direct changed/activated.
Remember that all other changes (NTP and IP settings) will become effective after reboot.

Block diagrams – Must be created

With all configuration options, it is possible to make many different systems using a single I/O rack.
We will show some example block diagrams on possible setups within an Axum system.
32 stereo module, 16 stereo buss and 4 stereo monitor buss console:
Note:
These diagrams will follow in future manuals, sorry

I/O Rack description

The AXUM digital audio system has a 19” rack (for 21 slots) that requires at least one power supply (3 slots) and one engine card (2 slots). You then have space for a maximum of 16 in and output cards. Because the AXUM is a modular system it is up to you how many in and output cards are necessary to do the job.
For the connections, we use standard RJ45; an example for other connectors is ADAT that uses the well-known ADAT optical connector. Connection between de RJ45s in the rack and your patch units is by standard STP (Shielded Twisted Pair) cable.

9.1 Power supply

At the far left in the I/O RACK is the position where the power supply Card is inserted; an optional second power supply card can be inserted alongside this first one. With two power supplies, you have created automatic power supply redundancy.
The LED will blink green to show the power supply is up and running. At failure of the local power, this LED activity will be blinking red or not blinking at all.
The NEUTRIK™ PowerCON™ will feed 100-240V power to the supply.
With the power switch you can turn off the local power supply.
WARNING:
Before you insert a second power supply please turn on the power of this second unit first to make sure you will influence the internal power-lines.

9.2 Engine

The engine is the controller card of the AXUM Digital audio system. This card has a fixed location at the far right side. For proper functioning of the system, you absolutely have to insert this card to your digital audio systems network.
The RJ45 is a default 100Mbit Ethernet port and over this network connection, the following information is send:

MambaNet: control protocol
HTTP: Configuration of your engine via web server
FTP: Firmware/configuration update and backup via a file server.

Currently, the serial RS232, VGA, Keyboard, mouse and USB connection can be used for service purposes only.
Via the BNC connectors you synchronize this entire rack to an external frame clock as well as to remote equipment with the clock of this 19”rack.
With the 75R switch, you can turn on/off a 75-Ohm termination on the receiving frame clock connector.
The ACT(ive) LED will blink to show proper functioning of the Engine card.
On the next page, you find the pin information for all the connectors:

Pin	Pin name	Function	Comment
1	Centre	Frame Clock in	32kHz, 44.1kHz, 48kHz, +/- 100ppm, +5V TTL,

switchable 750hm terminator.
GND| GND| Ground Frame Clock in

9.3 GPIO
In rack configuration you can connect objects of MambaNet nodes to AXUM engine functions. Here you can also configure the GPIO objects of your I/O cards (MambaNet nodes). By following the links, you can reconfigure the functions that connect to the objects. The sensor and actuator data types determine which function assigns to the object.
For a complete list of the functions, you can look up chapter 20 Appendix C – Engine functions.

Function
Here you may select which engine function is connected to the object. To use the GPI functions you must select the hardware jumper setting TLL mode on the board (see chapter 11.3.1 GPIO TTL/Relay selection). The default jumper setting is GPO-Relay for all cards except for the MIC input card. The default jumper setting for the MIC input card is GPIO-TTL for GPIO 1, 3, 5 and 7 and GPO-Relay for GPIO 2, 4, 6 and 8.

9.3.2 GPI Active-state

Default
The gray value ‘1’ is the startup default, this may be changed by assigning a custom value (0 or 1). A value of ‘1’ makes sure that if the GPI is +5V the function is made active. The value ‘0’ makes sure that if the GPI is 0V the function is made active.
When you submit an empty box the object returns to the startup default value.

9.3.3 GPO

Default
The gray value is the startup default, this may be changed by assigning a custom value(0 or 1). A value of ‘1’ makes sure the GPO is active at startup. A value of ‘0’ makes sure the GPO is inactive at startup.
The GPO output state is also depending on the GPO active-state setting.
When you submit an empty box the object returns to the startup default value.
Function
Here you may select which engine function is connected to the object. To use the GPO functions you should maybe change the hardware jumper setting on the board (see chapter 11.3.1 GPIO TTL/Relay selection) to enable the given engine function The default jumper setting is GPO-Relay for all cards except for the MIC input card. The default jumper setting for the MIC input card is GPIO-TTL for GPIO 1, 3, 5 and 7 and GPO-Relay for GPIO 2, 4, 6 and 8.

9.3.4 GPO Time

Default
The gray value is the startup default, this may be changed by assigning a custom value.
The value must be between 0 – 250, where 0 is a continuous signal and 1 – 250 is the pulse width in milliseconds.
When you submit an empty box the object returns to the startup default value.

9.3.5 GPO Active-state

Default
The gray value ‘1’ is the startup default, this may be changed by assigning a custom value (0 or 1). A value of ‘1’ makes sure that if the GPO is active the output is +5V in TTL mode or A/B connected for relay mode. The value ‘0’ makes sure that if the GPO is active the output is 0V in TTL mode or A/B disconnected in relay mode.
When you submit an empty box the object returns to the startup default value.

Table 10-8 Hybrid Rj14 (Telephone) connection
This Hybrid In/output card converts the analog telephone signals into digital audio so it can be processed by the 19” inch rack.
The Hybrid card allows external callers to be connected to the AXUM. A connection can be established via the start/stop function in the engine.
If a local phone is connected, it is possible to originate a call to a remote side. If no local phone is present, someone at a remote site must call you.

10.10 Firewire in/output card (not available anymore)
This Firewire In/output card converts the Firewire digital signals into digital audio which can be processed by the 19” inch rack.
The Firewire card has to run synchronous with the connected devices, allowed sample rate frequencies are 32kHz, 44.1kHz or 48kHz.
WDM and ASIO Drivers are available.
Via WDM driver the device is seen as a single multi-channel WDM device (16 mono channels).
Normally this means your card may act like a 7.1 surround card, unless your software is capable of using the 8 stereo channels separate.
Via ASIO driver all 16 mono channels are available.

10.11 DSP card

The DSP card adds mixing capabilities to your 19” rack. In combination with the Axum engine, this card gives you 32 stereo processing channels to create a mixing desk.
The system may be loaded with four DSP cards, which generates a mixing console with 128 stereo channels.
The ACT(ive) LED blinks when this card functions properly.

Patch panels

All distribution of audio within the AXUM digital audio system is with shielded twisted pair cable.
The Breakout 19” panels, you need to connect equipment use standard audio connectors.

11.1 19” Patch panels / Breakout panels
The AXUM 19” Break out patch panels convert the RJ45 Shielded connection to the industry standard connectors such as XLR and Jack. There are various patch panels available for the AXUM for example:

11.2 Wiring
11.2.1 GPIO/Remote
The remote jack connects to all kinds of remote in-/outputs. Such as remote start/stop, external red lights or cough.
The function of the remote jack depends on the I/O card and function setup for this GPIO. The software determines its function and where it is connected to.

! NEVER CONNECT HIGH POWER VOLTAGE (WALL POWER) TO THE REMOTE-JACK !
If the GPIO jumper setting on the Axum-Rack-Board is set for GPO the remote becomes only a Remote-Output by a build in Solid State Relay. The relay is situated between Tip and Ring of the remote jack.
Normally the GPIO jumper setting on the Axum-Rack-boards are set for GPO.

11.2.2 MIC
The MIC input connects microphones to the AXUM. The AXUM Mic Rack Module supports 48 volts DC phantom power if it is switched on in the software.

Product Safety

This product is been manufactured with the highest standards and is double- checked in our quality control department for reliability in the “HIGH VOLTAGE” section.

CAUTION

Never remove any panels, or open this equipment.
No user serviceable parts inside.
Equipment power supply must be grounded at all times.
Only use this product as described, in user manual or brochure.
Do not operate this equipment in high humidity or expose it to water or other liquids.
Check the AC power supply cable to assure secure contact.
Have your equipment checked yearly by a qualified dealer service center.
Hazardous electrical shock can be avoided by carefully following the above rules.

PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION VERY CAREFULLY
Voltage and current cause an electrical shock. In practice the higher the voltage the higher the current will be and the higher the shock. However, there is another thing to consider and that is resistance. When the resistance in Ohms is high between two poles, the current will be low and visa versa. All three of these; voltage, current and resistance are important in determining the effect of an electrical shock.
The severity of a shock is caused by the amount of current flowing through a person.
A person can feel a shock because the muscles in a body respond to electric current. Current can also be fatal when it causes the chest muscles to contract and stop breathing.
At what potential is current dangerous? Well the first feeling of current is a tingle at 0.001 Amp of current.
The current between 0.1 Amp and 0.2 Amp is fatal.
Imagine that your home fuses of 16 Amp can handle 200 times more current than is necessary to kill. How does resistance affect the shock a person feels? A typical resistance between your two hands “dry” condition could be well over 100,000 Ohm. But if your body is transpiring extensively your body resistance is lowered by more than 50%. This is a situation in which current can easily flow.
Always earth all your equipment by the grounding pin in your main plug. Proper wiring and isolation input/output transformers should only cure hum loops.
Always replace fuses with the same type and rating after the equipment has been turned off and unplugged.
If the fuse blows again you have an equipment failure. Do not use it again and return it to your dealer for repair.
And last but not least be careful not to touch a person being shocked as you, yourself could also be shocked.
Once removed from the shock, have someone send for medical help immediately!
Always keep the above-mentioned information in mind when using electrically powered equipment.

Appendix A – Network design for AXUM

The platform AXUM design is according to the OSI-Model and makes use of protocols on different levels. It is important to understand the philosophy on the different levels in networking and the way the AXUM implemented this.
With this knowledge, you can make an advanced network setup within your studio(s) give you possibilities for:
– Remote configuration
– Remote service
– Connecting multiple AXUM racks to internet.
– Secure working within office-networks.

18.1 Network levels
Most of the people are aware of IP addresses. IP stands for ‘Internet Protocol’ and is in the OSI-Model called a ‘level 3’ protocol. In smaller office-networks, you normally only have to care about this ‘level 3’ (so IP).
The LAN connections (Local Area Network) normally use the Ethernet technology. Where the Ethernet is called a ‘level 2’ protocol.
For your understanding ‘level 1’ is the physical cable like CAT5e (often called RJ45-cable or Ethernet-cable).
An example how these ‘levels’ are used in an office network is your connection to the Internet:
– Your LAN connections are Ethernet
– Your WAN connection is DSL or GPRS/HDSPA
The fact is that the ‘level 3’ IP can be send on LAN and WAN, but the ‘level 2’ Ethernet is only available in the local area.

18.2 AXUM Network implementation
The AXUM system communication, where you have to think of fader, knob data etc. is based on the protocol MambaNet. MambaNet may run over other protocols and this can be L2 and L3 protocols.
Two examples of a valid AXUM solution:

18.2.1 MambaNet example 1
– MambaNet over layer 2 (Ethernet)
Is used for the Axum internal communication, where you have to think of fader, knob data etc. etc.
– Configuration over layer 3 (IP)
Is used for the Axum configuration and service access.
This makes sense because then the AXUM internal communication is independent of any IP address assignment and will always work independent on the IP- configuration. Second, the configuration is based on IP so with a good network design you can access configuration and service functionality over Internet.
Because layer 2 is a package switched solution this gives the restriction you can only use one AXUM rack in the Ethernet network. The next example can be used in a multi- rack network setup.

18.2.2 MambaNet example 2

MambaNet over layer 3(UDP or TCP)
Is used for the Axum internal communication, where you have to think of fader, knob data etc. etc.
Configuration over layer 3 (IP)
Is used for the Axum configuration and service access.

The MambaNet over UDP (and TCP) is connection oriented. With the destination IP address you determine to which rack this surface hooks up.

18.3 Network design (MambaNet over Layer 2)
An AXUM system require to have an own LAN (layer 2) to work without risk of interference with office networks and or other AXUM systems. The most basic way of describing this is: “Each Axum system requires its own Ethernet switch”.
As you can understand this means there is no connection (so communication possible) between the separate LANs. This creates the problem you cannot access the console(s) from a single internet connection or from your office network. To overcome this problem you have to design the network with a separation on ‘level 2’ (Ethernet) but a connection over ‘level 3’ (IP) must be possible.
Most simple example on such separation is:
Here you see two LAN networks, both connected to internet. With correct IP- addressing Office 1 and 2 can reach each other using the IP protocol. However, there will be no interference between Office 1 and 2 on Ethernet. In fact, you have to create the same network level-structure in your studio for correct function.
In the next chapters we show you some solutions how to implement this structure. Because these structures are well known in network-technologies there are also several different solutions where you can pick the most interesting/efficient for you.

18.3.1 Practical solution 1: Physical separated switches and IP router
If you give the AXUMs and OFFICE networks their own physical Ethernet switch, you ofcourse have good ‘level 2’ (Ethernet) separation. If you additional hook up an IP router to the Ethernet switches it is possible to make IP routes between the different networks, without ‘level 2’ interference.

18.3.2 Practical solution 2: single managed level 3 switch/router
When you select an level 3 managed switch with the following features:
– Port VLAN
– Inter VLAN routing (IP)
(VLAN stands for Virtual Local Area Network)
It will be possible to hook up all your network equipment to the same switch and configure the switch so it functions equal to ‘Practical solution 1’. Therefore you have to make 3 VLANs and make correct Inter VLAN IP routes.

Appendix B – Surface service

If you browse to the url http://192.168.0.234/service (where 192.168.0.234 should be your local console IP address) you have a service menu with give some management possibilities.
