Web Credentials
By default, no credentials are required to log into the user interface. If you would like to require
authentication, enter a user name and password here. The current password must be specified to make
this change. If authentication is currently disabled, leave the current password field blank. Once “Save
Web Credentials” is clicked the settings take effect immediately.
Duck Settings
Ducking is the ability for audio to mute when other audio is detected. The following settings can be used
to tweak the duck settings:
• Duck Threshold
o This setting defines the detection level the system will use to initiate ducking, if
configured in a talk group.
o A lower level would result in ducking occurring with quieter sounds where a higher level
would require louder sounds to trigger the ducking.
o Default is -21dB
• Duck Mute Time
o This setting defines how long the ducked audio should mute before returning to normal
level.
o Default is 2 seconds
See Talk Group Example 5
for details on configuring ducking.
Backup and Restore
Currently not implemented. Backup will allow for a configuration file to be downloaded. Restore will allow
for a previously saved configuration file to be applied to the system.
Advanced Settings
Most users should not have to make changes in the Advanced Settings menu. Changes made here may
disrupt settings made in the Basic Settings menu.
The Advanced Settings menu provides for manual manipulation of Dante subscriptions and DSP settings.
Additionally, the system may be restarted from Advance Settings.
Contact David Clark Customer Service at [phone] for guidance if you feel your application
requires settings not available in the Basic Settings menu.
