Ables

With the switch in the down position, the input is set to TTL. Use this setting

for voltage‑type signals. GPIO inputs set for TTL operation can handle signal

voltages up to 5 Volts.

The up position (Isolated) sets the input to accept on/off switch signals.

Do not use the Isolated setting with voltage-based signals. See the

GPIO Specifications later in this document for additional configuration

information.

GPIO Terminal Blocks

Each GPIO input or output has a positive and negative contact that can

be wired as needed. Four of each are provided. Only a small screwdriver is

required.

MIDI In, MIDI Out

Two MIDI (Musical Instrument Digital Interface) ports, In and Out, are provided

on the 6416m. Each is capable of transferring any type of MIDI‑compatible

data. Pro64 devices do not process or filter MIDI data in any way.

Both MIDI ports in the VDC section can be used simultaneously.

One MIDI In per Pro64 device can be assigned to a VDC Slot. An unlimited

number of Pro64 modules can make use of the MIDI data by assigning MIDI

Out to the VDC Slot with the same number as the input source.

RS-232 Port

The Pro64 RS‑232 VDC ports allow a pair of devices to transfer control data

at rates up to 57.6k baud across the Pro64 network. Using Virtual Data Cables

for RS‑232 always requires two VDCs because RS‑232 data transfers require

communicating devices to be set up in a handshaking pair. Note that RS‑232

communication is point‑to‑point, meaning that a maximum of seven RS‑232

sessions (14 total devices) are possible when using Pro64 Virtual Data Cables.
