Installing and uninstalling Yamaha LAN Monitor

1. Installation

Follow the steps below to install Yamaha LAN Monitor.

  1. Double click the downloaded file.
    The Yamaha LAN Monitor setup dialog box appears.

    If the “User Account Control” dialog box appears, click [Yes].

  2. Perform the installation as directed in the screen.

    During the installation procedure, a dialog box will ask you to install the WinPcap and Dante Discovery / Dante Control and Monitoring functions. If the WinPcap function has not been installed, install it as directed. If you use Yamaha switches on the Dante network and if you have not installed the Dante Discovery/Dante Control and Monitoring functions, install these functions in addition to the WinPcap function.

2. Uninstallation

You can uninstall Yamaha LAN Monitor from the Control Panel.
The appearance of the control panel will differ depending on the version of Windows.

  1. Go to [Control Panel] → [Programs and Features] or [Uninstall a program], select “Yamaha LAN Monitor” and then click [Uninstall] or [Uninstall or change].
    A dialog box appears.

  2. Perform the uninstallation according to the onscreen instructions.

    • If the “User Account Control” dialog box appears, click [Yes].

    • When the uninstallation of Yamaha LAN Monitor is completed, a dialog box will ask you to uninstall the Dante Discovery/Dante Control and Monitoring functions.
      Perform the uninstallation as directed in the screen.
      However, the Dante Discovery / Dante Control and Monitoring function will not be properly uninstalled if another application that uses this function (such as Dante Controller) is currently installed.

    • WinPcap and Dante Discovery / Dante Control and Monitoring functions will not be uninstalled. If you want to uninstall these functions as well, make sure that other applications are not using them, and then uninstall them individually using [Uninstall] or [Uninstall or change].

3. Installing Dante Controller

Dante Controller must also be installed to launch Dante Controller from Yamaha LAN Monitor. For details on installing Dante Controller, refer to the “Dante Controller User Guide.”
You can download Dante Controller and the Dante Controller User Guide from the downloads page of the website below.

Yamaha LAN Monitor uses the same network adapter as the one selected in Dante Controller to detect Dante-enabled devices. Therefore, in the environment where Dante Controller is installed, select the network adapter in Dante Controller appropriately and then start Yamaha LAN Monitor. When selecting a network adapter with Dante Controller, it is necessary to check “Use Shared Dante Interface”. If you change the network adapter selection in Yamaha LAN Monitor, the network adapter selection status of other applications (such as Dante Controller) that use the Dante shared interface will also be changed.
