nWall

Purpose

The nWall devices allow you to control and monitor different nWall models installed on a CobraNet network. There is a device for each variant of the nWall (0.2, 1.1 and 2.0), and one for the predecessor to the nWall 2.0 (labeled simply nWall).

An nWall device requires the IP address of the nWall that it will monitor on the network. When a connection is made to the device, the Link LED is lit (green). Once a connection has been made, you can specify a bundle number for transmission or reception of audio via the CobraNet network.

Notes:

• The NWare nWall device requires an nControl or nTouch 180 to function, but you can still use an nWall to pass audio on the CobraNet network without one of these devices. You will need to configure the nWall using CobraNet discovery. For more information, see Using CobraNet Discovery (Disco) in the NWare User Guide.
• Before you can contact an nWall using NWare, it must be assigned an IP address. For more information, see Adding the nWall device and assigning an IP address and bundle number in the NWare User Guide.

The devices have an input wiring node, which allows an IP address to be passed from another device to the IP address box on the nWall control surface. You can use an Agent Discovery device to discover the nWall on the network using its Sys Name property, for example, and then pass the IP address of the nWall over to the nWall device using the input wiring node.

For information on installing an nWall, refer to the nWall Hardware Manual.
