  • The Agent will look for an existing ANEMAN server on your network, and will start one if none can be found.

  • Your default browser will open the ANEMAN Webapp (Google Chrome recommended)

  • Important: the first time you start the Agent, Windows and MacOS will prompt you to allow ANEMAN on your network.
    Please allow access on your networks.

Create a Zone

In the Devices View, click on the Folder icon on top CreateNewZone.png
You can add device(s) in the zone by dragging them on the Zone. On the left side of the device(s), a colored line will appear matching the Zone color (default: Blue).
To configure the Zone, access the Zone Settings by clicking on the Zone Menu ZoneMenuIcon.png and Open Settings.
Master allows you set a specific device as the Sampling Rate and Frame Size master.
Sampling Rate let you choose if the Zone Master is the sampling rate master, or a specific sampling rate. All devices in the zone (including the Zone Master) will follow the sampling rate.
Frame Size let you choose if the Zone Master is the frame size master, or a specific frame size. All devices in the zone (including the Zone Master) will follow the frame size.
Note: Depending on the devices configuration, very low frame sizes like AES67(6) or (12) may cause drops in the connection.
