<dd class="mvd-P"><p class="hcp1">1. Note
that a wiring connection between devices, using the
CobraNet nodes on the device icons in the <a href="Main&#32;Window.html">Main
Window</a> is not necessary to create a network connection
but is recommended in order to provide a graphical
representation of the installation cabling infrastructure.
These are the cat5 ethernet cables that carry multiple
channels of audio.</p></dd>
<dd class="mvd-P">Wiring between input and output CobraNet
blocks is required in the devices' <a href="MAINConfiguration_Window.htm">Configuration
Window</a>(s) in order to pass audio through the device
to a further destination, either via CobraNet or to
analogue connections.</dd>

<br>2. Bundle settings that are inaccurate
or unused can be deleted in the CobraNet edit box
by selection and pressing the &quot;-&quot; button.</dd>

<dd class="mvd-P"><p class="hcp1">3. An
input or receiving bundle has only the &quot;Number&quot;
property.</p></dd>
<dd class="mvd-P">A transmitting output bundle has
further properties that include setting a bit depth
for each of the 8 slots. This can be chosen between
16, 20 and 24 bit for each channel. There are limitations
to the channel count and bundle capability based on
the combination of sample rate and frequency, check
the <a href="Cobranet&#32;Information.html">CobraNet Information</a>
section for more details. The output bundle's &quot;Priority&quot;
in the network sequence can be adjusted from 1-255,
default being 16 and, its transmit position can be
changed also.</dd>

<br>4. Devices using different sample
rates can be accommodated in a system design. The
sample rate is set by clicking on the device's icon
in the design space and changing this property (either
48KHz or 96KHz). However, devices having different
sample rates cannot be connected to pass audio directly
on the network. The <a href="File&#32;Preferences.html">File
Preferences</a> option to select sample rate is a
default setting for all newly created devices, i.e.
to configure a whole system in 96KHz select this option
before starting to layout your devices.</dd>

<br>5. If CobraNet bundles are not activated,
i.e. still silver, control panels, for processing
objects wired to these bundles in the same device
configuration, will not allow use of their controls
in online or run mode. Activate the bundles correctly
to enable use of the controls.</dd>
