Double click on the General button to open the General information sub-panel.
Amp Model – Shows the model of the device.
Amp Serial # - Identifies the serial number of the device.
Amp Date Code – Shows the date code of the device.
Firmware Version – Shows the firmware version currently installed in the JBL DPCN input module. The firmware installed in the input module must be compatible with the version of Audio Architect software in use. Audio Architect software will prompt the user to Update Firmware if device firmware is not compatible with Audio Architect software version in use. Firmware is updated using the Audio Architect Firmware Update Wizard.
Output Channel Labels - Identifies the output bandpass associated with that control sub-panel. The number of label fields shown in this panel vary with the number of output JBL DrivePack® amplifier channels provided for that device.
System Description - Identifies the CobraNet hardware version of the device.
CM-1 Version - This fixed field of three numbers identifies the CobraNet firmware version. From left to right, these numbers indicate: the highest CobraNet protocol version supported by firmware, the CobraNet firmware major revision number, and the CobraNet firmware minor revision number.
Mac Address - This fixed field indicates in hexadecimal notation the unique 6 byte Ethernet address of the unit's CobraNet interface. It cannot be edited.
Dynamic IP Address - Shows the device's current network IP Address.
Sample Rate - This field displays the Sample Rate for CobraNet audio coming into the amplifier. Currently only 48kHz sample rate is supported.
Data Button - Illuminates the Data LED on the JBL DrivePack Input module panel.
System Name – General purpose user definable field. It is designed to contain text which will uniquely identify this unit within the context of the whole system.
System Location – See System Contact info.
System Contact – General purpose user definable field. These fields are for your use. They may be used to indicate where within the system this CobraNet device is located, and the name of a person who may be contacted for system maintenance.
Static IP Address (CobraNet CM-1) - This field display the unit's network IP address for the CobraNet portion of the DPCN input module. It should be a different IP address from the IP Address used for control (Dynamic IP Address). This is useful when you wish to treat the unit as an IP network component. If the device is periodically dropping off the network click CobraNet Network Dropouts.
Latency - The drop down box allow you to select the latency for the CobraNet being received by the amplifier from 1.33, 2.33 or 5.33 milliseconds. A device can only receive CobraNet at the latency it was transmitted at. A device will indicate that it is receiving a bundle, but not produce audio if the latency between the transmitter and receiver does not match.
Rx Activity - This indicator lights up when Ethernet packets are received.
Conductor Priority - The control specifies the priority of this CobraNet Node for the purpose of voting to gain conductorship on the local CobraNet network. The unit with the highest priority will assume the conductorship for the network. The conductor acts as the master clock for the CobraNet system. The special value 0 specifies that this unit will never conduct, 1 is lowest conductor priority, and 255 is highest conductor priority.
Fault - A general fault occurred within the CobraNet portion of the amplifier.
Receive - There was an error receiving CobraNet data.
Transmit - There was an error sending CobraNet data.
Display - This LED illuminates when the module encountered an unexpected error.
