General Precautions
• Do not place heavy objects on the RP64, expose it to sharp objects or handle
it in any way that may cause damage, e.g., rough handling and/or excessive
vibration.
• Do not subject the equipment to dirt, dust, heat or vibration during operation
or storage. Never expose the console to rain or moisture in any form. Should
the unit become wet, turn it off and disconnect it from the power source
without further delay. The equipment should be given sufficient time to dry out
before recommencing operation.
• When cleaning the RP64, never use chemicals, abrasive substances or
solvents.
• The front panel should be cleaned using a soft brush and a dry lint-free cloth.
For persistent marks, use a soft cloth and isopropyl alcohol.
• Keep these instructions for future reference. Follow all warnings in this
manual and those printed on the unit.
• The RP64 must be connected following the guidance in this manual. Never
connect power amplifier outputs directly to the RP64. Connectors and plugs
must never be used for any other purpose than that for which they are
intended.
• The equipment must be powered from an appropriate source which can be via
either of the mains inputs. Use both inputs for redundancy purposes.
• The RP64 must not be operated inside a case or enclosed as the housing
acts as a heatsink for the components inside.
• Refer servicing to qualified technical personnel only.

Introduction
Thank you for purchasing your new Nixer RP64 audio network switch.
This manual describes the features and how to use the RP64, RP64 EQ and RP64
CV2.
Features that are only found on the RP64 EQ and RP64CV2 will be displayed in
purple.
The only difference between the RP64 EQ and the RP64 CV2 is that the RP64 CV2
does not have an LCD screen and must be operated via the Control Port using
NixNet.
This unit has been designed to make it convenient and easy to patch audio signals
within Audio over IP (AoIP) networks without having to change subscriptions.
Operation is via it’s clear and simple to use touchscreen interface and it is housed in
a compact and robust case.
The RP64 is a 64-way digital patch with 64 digital inputs and 64 digital outputs.
Patch routing is changed easily by the touchscreen interface.
At time of purchase, it can be specified with either a Dante or Ravenna interface.
Patches operate almost instantaneously and negate the need of having to use a
laptop and a controller program and the inherent delays these bring.
The RP64 is a compact 1U module with a size of 44mm height, 483mm width (inc.
rack ears) and 120mm depth.
It features a large letterbox 6.6” diagonal (168mm) 1440 x 240 24-bit colour LCD and
capacitive touch panel for display and control (not fitted to RP64 CV2)

Quick Start Guide
Once you have unpacked your RP64 you can follow this quick guide to get you
started using it.
Firstly, if you’re unit is configured with Dante you will need to download and install a
copy of Dante Controller onto your PC/Mac. (https://www.audinate.com)
If you have purchased a Ravenna unit then either download and install Aneman
(https://www.merging.com/products/aneman) alternatively once the unit is powered
access the Ravenna unit directly as described below.
Next plug your RP64 into your network with an RJ45 patch lead.
Apply power to the unit either via PoE and/or via the 24V DC input after a few
seconds you will see the splash screen on the RP64.
The optional NIX00583 or the NIX00629 can be used to power your unit.
After the RP64 has booted you will be presented with the main screen.
If you have a valid network connection the status light in the top left side of the
screen next to the P (primary) will turn green.
At this point start Dante Controller on your PC/Mac and you will see your RP64
appear in the list of devices or for Ravenna devices we recommend that you access
it directly by typing http://192.168.0.18/advanced/index.html (replace the shown IP
address with your units IP address)
You will then be able to select sources and destinations for your RP64.
Once you have done this you will be able to start using your RP64 via the touch
screen interface.
