11.7 Global audio and clock settings

 

The sampling frequency, the network packet size as well as the clock source can be configured by clicking on “RAVENNA Audio-ra0”,

from the “Media” section.

The sampling frequency and the network packet size can be configured by clicking on “RAVENNA Audio-ra1”.


In case the clock source is configured to PTP , it is necessary to set the PTP clock parameters, by clicking on “PTP”, from the “Sync”

section

Hostname

: This is the tname of the RAVENNA node, used to

identify the device at a network level. This name must be unique
on the network,; no spaces are allowed, no special characters.

Gateway

: specify the network gateway IP address if there is one.

Default TTL

: Time To Live value. It defines the number of routers

the generated frames can cross..

Audio block size

: this defines the number of samples per

channel per network packet; the smaller the

frame size, the lower the latency but the more susceptible to
drop-outs. Values are from 1 to 128 samples.

Sample rate

: this is the audio sample rate: 48000 Hz or 44100

Hz.

Sync Source

: this defines the clock source of SERV/LINK. The

clock source can be:

PTP: SERV/LINK can be PTP Master or slaved to PTP

WordClock: received on the WordClock input of the card

MADI: the card automatically synchronizes on the
detected MADI signal.

PTP Clock source

: This defines the source of the PTP clock of

the card.

See “Use cases for clock configuration” below for setting the clock
parameters.

Slave only

: when this option is checked, SERV/LINK is forced to

run in PTP slave mode.

In case this option is not check, the SERV/LINK card can be
elected as Master PTP depending on its priority. A device is
elected as master PTP if the priority of its PTP clock is the highest.

Domain

: Time domain for PTP. This MUST be set to match the

domain number of the related PTP Grandmaster.

Prio1

: Internal PTP setting. This parameter is used to control the

priority of Grandmaster selection

Prio2

: Sames as Prio1

Announce Interval

: in seconds (1, 2, 4, 8 or 16). In Slave mode,

this MUST be set to match the Announce Interval of the related
PTP master clock. In Master mode, this determines the desired
Announce Interval.

Sync interval

: in seconds (0.5, 1 or 2). In Slave mode, this MUST

be set to match the Sync Interval of the related PTP master clock.
In Master mode, this determines the desired Sync Interval.

Delay request mechanism

: End to End (E2E) or Peer to Peer

(P2P). This MUST be set to match the related PTP master clock.

While E2E is a more universal setting, P2P provides higher clock
sync precision but requires full

support from all participating switches (between the node and
