Note: CobraNet Input blocks of less than 8 channels
may now be used. When a block is placed into the
Layout from the Object Toolbar, a dialog will appear,
allowing the Channel Count to be specified. When
using 'unicast'* bundles, each block must still have a
unique bundle number. However, smaller Channel
Counts will allow for an increase in the use of 'flexible
CobraNet bundles' (see
System Network
Considerations ).
* CobraNet Input blocks within the same system design may be assigned identical 'multicast'
bundle numbers, but only if these blocks have been allocated to separate devices in a multi-
device system.

Output
Mute Out turns the output signal on/off. Level Out adjusts the
relative output volume. Invert Out reverses the polarity of the output
signal.
CobraNet Bundle assigns digital audio data to a particular bundle. CobraNet Bundle
Numbers are used to match those of any external third-party CobraNet D/A converters
being used in the system (see
AudiaEXPO ). Normally, 'unicast' bundles 256 ~ 65,279
are selectable. These are device specific bundles (for exchange of digital audio with
only one other device). Multicast allows selection of bundles 1 ~ 255, which are not
device specific (for exchange of digital audio with multiple devices). Enable turns
on/off the exchange of CobraNet digital audio data from this device.
Note: CobraNet Output blocks now include an Internal Propagation
Delay field to assist in delay equalization of audio signals going
through third-party CobraNet input devices. The propagation delay
through the Audia system, the CobraNet transmission delay
(according to the currently selected
CobraNet Latency ) and the
internal propagation delay in the third-party equipment will be
correctly taken into account.
The "Default" setting for this field only
takes into account the propagation delay through the Audia system
(0.67mS).
Right-clicking over certain settings will provide a menu of additional
options.
