A
.
NOTE: Adjust the audio level to = (full attenuation) prior to powering the amplier in step 8.
Turn off all other equipment and disconnect the power cables. Verify that the amplier is disconnected from the power source
before proceeding.
Step 2 — Application Example and Mounting
For a typical application example, see Application Example in the user guide. For further mounting instructions, see Mounting the
NetPA AT in the user guide.

Step 5 — Setting the High Pass Filter (HPF)
On the NetPA 1001-70V AT, use a Tweeker or small screwdriver to toggle the high pass filter switch
J
between Off (no ltering)
and 80 Hz (default). Setting the switch to 80 Hz prevents the saturation of speaker input transformers by low frequency signals.
The high pass lter can be safely turned off only if the ltering is applied upstream of the amplier.
Step 6 — Remote Connector
The 3.5 mm, 2-pin captive screw remote control port
D
forces the unit into standby mode when the remote standby pin is
shorted to ground. The amplier wakes from standby and resets the inactivity timer when the connection is reopened.
See the user guide for details.
Step 7 — Line Out Connector
Connect an amplier or other device to the 3-pole, 3.5 mm captive screw connectors
C
for channel 1 and channel 2
(NetPA 502 AT) or the single channel (NetPA 1001-70V). Wire as shown below.

8. Follow the onscreen instructions. When the installation completes, close the installation dialog.
Step 10 — Dante Network Setup
Rename the NetPAAT
Dante Controller auto-discovers all Dante devices on the network and advertises itself to allow other Dante-enabled devices to
communicate with it. The default device name is the word “NetPA” followed by the last six digits of the MAC address of the device.
Multiple devices on the same network can present difculty identifying inputs and outputs. To avoid confusion, each device must
be renamed to a unique identier.
NOTE: To simplify renaming, connect only one Dante device to the network at a time. As each device is renamed, it can
remain connected.
Ensure the control computer and the NetPA AT are connected to the same network.
1. From the start menu select All Programs > Audinate > Dante
Controller > Dante Controller.
The Dante Controller - Network View screen opens.
All Dante devices on the network are discovered and listed.

2. From the toolbar, select Device>Device View.
3. The Dante Controller - Device View dialog opens.
Select your device from the (Select a Dante Device...) drop-down list.
NOTES:
If there are multiple NetPA ATs connected to the network that have not been renamed, to identify an
individual device you must obtain the MAC address of the desired device from the label on the rear
panel.
The identify device tool can also be used to identify the unit (see Identifying the Physical Device on
page 6).
The Device View dialog populates with the selected NetPAAT information.
4. Click the Device Config tab to open the device conguration page.
5. In the Rename Device panel, enter the new name of the device in the text eld. No spaces are allowed in the name.

NetPA AT Series • Setup Guide (Continued)
6. Click Apply. A warning opens.
7. Click Yes to enter the new name, then close the Device Conguration dialog.
The new name is written to the NetPAAT. Repeat as necessary for all NetPAAT devices.
NOTE: After the NetPAAT is renamed, it can remain connected to the network. However, subsequent devices must be
connected one at a time and renamed before the next device is connected.
Identifying the Physical Device
If the amplier needs to be physically identied, the identify device tool can be used to aid in its location.
1. Start with steps 1 through 3 of Rename the NetPA AT on page 4.
2. To identify the NetPA, click on the “eye” icon on the toolbar.
3. Both the front panel power LED
(see figure 6,
A
, on page 10) and the rear panel link LED
F
(see figure 1,
F
, on page 1)
blink amber at a rate of 0.5 Hz for ten seconds, after which the LEDs return to their previous state.
4. Locate the unit with the blinking LEDs.
NOTE: For advanced network setup, refer to the user guide.

Step 11 — Dante Operation
Select Devices
After the receiver inputs of the NetPAAT are congured, they must be routed to the other Dante devices on the audio network.
Dante Controller is required.
1. Ensure the control computer and NetPAAT are connected to the same network.
2. From the start menu select All Programs > Audinate > Dante Controller > Dante Controller.
The Dante Controller - Network View screen opens.
Dante Controller auto-discovers Dante devices on the network and advertises itself to allow other Dante-enabled devices to
communicate with it. Device inputs are Dante receivers (listed vertically on the left) and device outputs are Dante transmitters
(listed horizontally across the top). Transmitters (outputs) connect to receivers (inputs) using the connection matrix.
3. Click the + box next to the NetPA (NetPA-Classroom-01) in the Dante Receivers column to show all device inputs.
4. Click the + box next to the transmitter (DMP128-LectureHall) in the Dante Transmitter row to show all device outputs.
8
NetPA AT Series • Setup Guide (Continued)
Route Inputs and Outputs
1. Click the + box next to the input channels (receivers) on the NetPA (NetPA-Classroom-01 in the example above).
All device outputs (transmitters) display horizontally.
2. Click the junction of the desired connection
(Example: DMP128-LectureHall Output-01 to NetPA-Classroom-01 INPUT-MONO).
A checkmark at the junction indicates the connection is made. A checkmark is also placed next to the receiver channel.
NOTE: An input (receiver) can connect to only one output (transmitter). An output (transmitter) can connect to multiple
inputs (receivers).
3. Click the junction again to disconnect the input from the output.
See the “Dante Controller” section of the NetPA AT Series user guide for information on Dante Controller operation.
Step 12 — Setting the Gain Potentiometer
Turn up the gain potentiometer to the desired level. When the pot is set to 0 dB, and a 0 dBFS signal is
transmitted through the Dante port, the amplier outputs full power.
Use a Tweeker or small screwdriver to adjust the audio input gain for the corresponding channel. The
analog potentiometers control the gain from = (full attenuation) to 0 dB (no gain) to + 6 dB gain.
NOTE:
The potentiometer affects the gain post DAC and pre amplier stage.
The gain potentiometer does not adjust the level of the line output.

Creating a Physical Dante Network
A physical network is required to share Dante audio channels between a DMP 128 AT device and a NetPA AT. The NetPA 502AT
and NetPA 1001-70V AT have an RJ-45 connector located on the back panel that accepts a standard network cable.
A DMP128-based Dante network can be congured in a star or daisy chain network topology using the four port switch and the
Dante Controller in switched mode.
Star network topology places one DMP128C AT as the central unit, which connects directly to up to three more units.
Alternatively, a larger network switch in place of the central DMP128AT, allows more than four NetPAATs to connect in the star
conguration.

Figure 5. Daisy Chain Topology
Hybrid versions combining the star and daisy chain topologies can be built, but a ring topology, or any topology that creates a
duplicate connection causes a connection failure in Dante Controller.
NOTE: Connections between ports in either a star or daisy chain network do not need to be sequential (1 to 2, 2 to 3, 3 to 4),
nor do they need to be made between the same port numbers (1 to 1, 2 to 2, 3 to 3, 4 to 4).
NOTE: At the moment, Dante is not compatible with EEE (Energy Efficient Ethernet) technology. Care should be taken when
using a network switch with this technology in a Dante network.
If using a managed switch, ensure that it supports disabling EEE on all ports that will be used for Dante trafc.
If using an unmanaged switch, do not use models that support the EEE function, as it can not be disabled on these
models.
For more information on this topic, see the Audinate website.
Resetting the NetPA AT
The NetPA AT utilizes DHCP addressing by default.
A recessed reset button on the rear panel (see figure 1 ,
G
, on page 1) initiates a reset mode. Reset sets the IP addressing mode
to DHCP (Dante default), clear the previous IP address, and reset the device name to default.
NOTE: Initiating a reset while the NetPA AT is connected to a transmitting device severs that connection.
To reset the NetPA AT, press and hold down the reset button for ten seconds until both of the rear panel RJ-45
Ethernet port LEDs blink twice.
NOTE: When the NetPA AT is first powered on, or reset, the default name shall be “NetPA-xxxxxx” where
xxxxxx are the last six digits or letters of the MAC address of the unit.
