Patch ES network audio virtually

How can I patch audio in ES network without devices?

When you run ES-Monitor without your devices connected, you don't see anything in the program window and cannot add a device to it from the program.
But ES-Editor can do it.

1. Install ES-Monitor software downloaded from AuviTran web site.
2. Run ES-Editor software came with ES-Monitor and add devices which are going to be used in the project to the network in the order of the physical connection. (Upstream --> downstream)
3. Save it to a cfg file.
4. Run ES-Monitor and select Offline Mode. ([Command] -> [Switch Offline Mode], or Ctrl+O)
5. Load the cfg file to the ES-Monitor software.
6. Patch audio routing and check its validity.

Then, when you have the system connected, the cfg file can be loaded to ES-Monitor program and downloaded to the devices to achieve the setting.
Don't forget to save the information to non-volatile memory on the devices.

Port number for DME-N Network Driver

I need to use my firewall software. Which port needs to be opened for DME-N Network Driver?

The TCP/IP port that DME-N Network Driver uses for communicating on the Ethernet network is 12300.
So if it's in the case that you cannot stop the whole firewall software so that you need to specify the port number used for DME network communication, punch a hole in the firewall port number 12300 to let the DME/M7CL/LS9 traffic through.

Let your cursor free

If you are a big fan of navigating the PM5D or PM1D with the cursor keys, these tips may help you.

PM5D Owner's Manual p28:
"To move quickly to the outer edge of the current window or to a different window, hold down the [SHIFT] key and use the CURSOR keys. You will move from the scroll window in which the cursor is currently located, in the direction of the key you pressed."

In the Patch screen, the [DATA] encoder moves the cursor horizontally.
When you hold the [SHIFT] key and turn the encoder, the cursor is moved vertically.
Please put the mouse cursor outside of the patch matrix. If it is in the area, your red box cursor will be moved to a box with the mouse cursor after closing a confirmation pop-up.
