Matrix: How many V-Series panels can an E-Madi card support?

The E-Madi card supports up to 32 V-Series panels over a suitable infrastructure. To set up V-Series panels on MADI you need to:
  • Run EHX version 8.5 or above.
  • Configure the panel audio in the EHX software and the MADI software as necessary.
  • Ensure that the panel is fitted with a V-Series AES options module

If the user attempts to program more than 32 V-Series panels on a Madi card EHX will display the following error message:













Most third party equipment (e.g. RME, Lawo) treats the AES (Audio Engineering Society) streams from a MADI as 32 linked pairs,
A and B channel together. So in the general case, the following strategy should be used to route the AES streams:
In the card/port configuration screen in EHX, the panels should be configured to the odd numbered ports (taking the first port as 1)
of the E-MADI card. The even numbered ports may be left unused (Empty), leaving the panel with only the main channel audio
(channel A). See Figure 6.3.
Note: It is not necessary to define a block of panels as consecutive odd numbers. For example, ports 1,3,9,11,51 could be defined
as panels, with all the other slots unused or used for other purposes if required.
