; the A‑Net Slot display is used to
indicate the current value in use.
The A‑Net Slot display reads “0” to indicate that the system’s •
default values are being used. (This is set with Function
14.)
The A‑Net Slot display reads “1” to indicate that stored
•
values are being used. (This is set with Function 13.)
Measure New Sample Alignment Value
To generate a new sample alignment value, use Function 12. This Function
can only be performed at the Control Master when the network is unlocked.
Press the F
unCtion
button, followed by
ChannEl
12 a
CtivE
button. The sixteen
channel meter LEDs and the Enter/Cancel LED will flash, indicating that this
operation will replace the currently stored value. Press E
ntEr
to measure
and generate a new sample alignment value, or press C
anCEl
to exit without
updating the stored value. A forward sweep of the level LEDs indicates that
the function is complete.
Values are stored in each module’s memory but are not put into use until
Function 13 (Use Stored Sample Alignment Values) is performed, which
activates the stored sample alignment values. The module must be the
network Control Master to use its stored value. Use Function 11 to get info on
the current values in use.
When the stored sample alignment value is being used, a new sample
alignment value should be calculated each time the network sample rate is
changed, or when the system configuration changes. (Changes include the
addition/subtraction of Pro64 modules, different wiring schemes, etc.)
Use Stored Sample Alignment Value
When a new sample alignment value has been generated and stored,
Function 13 can be used to activate and lock in this value for use throughout
the network. This Function can only be performed at the Control Master
when the network is unlocked.
To use the stored value, press the F
unCtion
button, followed by the
ChannEl
13
aCtivE
button. The Enter/Cancel LED and the sixteen yellow channel meter
LEDs will flash. Press E
ntEr
to use the stored value, or press C
anCEl
to exit
without changing the sample alignment value (the system reverts to using
the default value).
The stored sample alignment value remains in force even when the network
is power cycled. When the network is reconfigured or when the sample rate
is changed, a new value should be calculated using Function 12 described
above.
