Tab name Section Description Example
Mon.
(Monitor)
To
The Mon. (Monitor) tab allows routing to the
communications and monitors. These can also be found
on the Monitors screen (see Figure 20 “Monitor A and B
strips” in chapter 14) as shown in Table 5 “Monitor inputs
and outputs on the Monitors screen”.
CM1 To
The CM1 tab allows routing to the Neutron-NB expansion
card. The audio format is determined by the installed
cards, i.e. USB, Dante, AES50 or MADI. Sample rate is set in
the From page.
If the sample rate or the card type is set incorrectly for
either of the two cards, then on the Diagnostics screen,
this will cause the 'IO Card' section of the screen to error
and show in red.
The Neutron engine itself contains automatic sample rate convertors (ASRCs) which all of the card audio passes through, so there is no need to congure these if there
is a mismatch between the console sample rate and the card sample rate.
For example, if you take audio from a Dante card which is connected to a laptop running at 48 kHz, then the Neutron engine will automatically convert the inputs up to
96 kHz for the Pro X, and any outputs going back through Dante will be stepped down to 48 kHz for the laptop.
The following table lists the patching connectors on the Mon. tabs in the From and To sections, and shows their equivalents on the Monitors screen.

Navigating to the Patching screen
You can open the Patching screen from various other screens in the GUI menu, usually by clicking a source (source) or dest. (destination) button. When you click one
of these buttons, not only will the Patching screen open, but the appropriate tab in the From/To section will be open as well. For a full list of patching routing on the
PRO Series, see Table 25 “Navigating to the Patching screen” in Appendix J.
