5 AVS-ESMonitor Functionalities
AVS-ESMonitor:
• Provides graphical user interface to EtherSound device and network
• Provides quick information on EtherSound networks and devices
• Provides hierarchical view of each EtherSound networks
• Provides full access to dedicated devices such as AVY16-ES board
• Enables user to build his own audio routing
• Provides group management of devices
• Manages bi-directional audio routing for compatible devices
• Provides smart routing of all devices
AVS-ESMonitor is based upon a service managing one or more EtherSound networks.
Therefore, AVS-ESMonitor can be used with a distant service (running on another
computer), and several AVS-ESMonitor can use the same service. Service parameters
can be set via its dedicated control panel.
Group functionality allows user to set together several devices that share same network
and same type. Thanks to graphical interface, user will be able to interact with these
groups and send several orders via one action only (muting all inputs for instance).
6 Typical Software Architecture Samples
Here is a sketch of typical use of AVS-ESMonitor running on the same computer as the
service managing two EtherSound networks.
