If the Dante device supports AES67, this is how to integrate it into Wheatnet-IP:

NOTE: The Wheatnet System must be running at 48K (Dante cards does not support 44.1 for AES67)

• Put your Dante device on a static address in the WNIP subnet.
• You need a PTP clock. The Dante device should provide this. Look in Dante Controller under Clock Status - as long as you have a Primary v2 Multicast Leader, you have PTP clock already. If not, you'll need a PTPv2 clock running in the WNIP subnet.
• You will need to obtain a PTP license for Navigator (no charge) to lock the WNIP clock master to PTP.

 Then go into Navigator and go to the Info tab. Look under Clock Master Info.

Set the Primary External Reference to AES67-PTP. Navigator will prompt you for a license. Copy the seed and send it to us and we'll generate a key. no charge. After you have pasted in the key to unlock the feature, you will see the PTP Status go green. The domain should remain set to zero. If the status light for PTP is green, you're good.

At this point, what is happening is that your WNIP blade that is clock master is locking itself to the PTP clock. All the blades will lock to the WNIP metronome from the blade, all of the AES67 devices will lock to the PTP clock, and everyone will be time aligned.

Next step is to turn on AES-67 mode for the Dante device in Dante Controller. In Device Info, double click on the device and choose the AES67 Config tab. Set it to Enable. There is a place where you choose the RTP Multicast Address Prefix. Dante only lets you change the second octet and it chooses the other octets randomly. WNIP is by default 239.192.192.0 and above. 

Now let's go to Navigator and create the WNIP source for the stream that we just created.

Go to the Devices tab (below System) and pick AES67 Devices. Click the Add button on the far right.

Give it a name. Fill in the IP address of the Dante card (NOT the multicast flow!). Give it a host blade. The sources and destinations for this device will appear grouped with the host blade in the crosspoint grid. Save.

Now in the system tree, click on the device you just created.

Click Add.

Give your source a name and then click on the Stream Info tab.

See how there's an entry there already? Click the Edit button so we can modify it.

Change the Multicast Address to match what is in your flow. In our example, we have a Multicast Address of 239.192.253.0 and a Port of 50100. Leave Payload Type at 100. The packet rate for the Dante card is 1ms. Ignore the section about Reference Clock, we don't need it.

Repeat the process to create a multicast flow for each microphone/device and matching source for each flow. This will put Dante sources into Navigator so you can route Dante sources to Wheatnet IP destinations

On the Dante Controller side, you need the RAV2SAP utility to transmit SDP information to Dante Controller to route WNIP sources to Dante destinations. This is a third-party application available from Ravenna. It is free, but registration is required.
