FUNCTION

Managed Mode allows the network to be controlled from a computer and

can only be entered from the Control Master.

To manage a Pro64 network with a PC, the PC needs to be connected to the

Control Master using a DB9 null modem cable connected to the RS‑232 port.

The RS‑232 baud rate DIP switches must also be set to the same rate as the

PC application.

Exiting Managed Mode is also done from the Control Master. Pressing the

lit

button followed by the

button will return the network to

local control. Attempting to enter or exit Managed Mode from any module

other than the Control Master will cause the Managed button LED to blink to

indicate the error.

Password Protection

All Pro64 devices ship with a default password. However, a Pro64 network

can be password protected from the Control Master only. Once protected,

the front‑panel interface on all modules is locked, preventing changes to

A‑Net Slots, sample rate, clock source, channel activation, stereo links, and

Virtual Data Cable assignments. Hardware switches, such as gain settings

on input and output modules, and rear‑panel DIP switches are in the analog

domain and are not affected.

Password protection remains in force even when a system is power cycled.

When a network is password protected, the front panel interface can be used

to get information on channel Slot assignments and VDC routings. Pressing

a channel button will display its Slot assignment in the A‑Net Slot display.

Pressing the VDC inc/dec buttons will cycle through the fourteen VDC Slots,

displaying any port assignments on the current module, as well as the In Use

LED for all active VDC Slots in the network. This query behavior is similar to
