Adding a NioNode to your design

Introduction

NION is a digital audio processor. The following variants are currently available: the n3, the n6, the nX and the nE, which are all supported by NWare. The NION is compatible with the CAB audio break-out boxes (CAB 4n, CAB 16d etc.).

Tips:

• Within NWare, a NION is referred to as a NioNode. This term is use both in the NWare user interface and in the user documentation.
• If you click the Cancel button on the Configure NioNode GPIO dialog box when you are adding a NioNode to your design, this will cancel the process of adding the NioNode, not just close the dialog box. If you do not want to configure the GPIO, but still want to add the NioNode, click OK.

The NioNode device has a number of properties, which allow you to specify:

• The types cards installed in the expansion slots.
• A protocol to use for control over the IP network, e.g. RATC.
• A protocol to use for control via the serial port, e.g. PASHA.
• How the GPIO port will be used.
• etc.

If you require reference information on the NioNode properties, see NION Audio Processor in the NWare Device Reference.
