6416Y2 A-Net Interface Card

The 6416Y2 can be set up to follow the configuration of its onboard DIP switches or to use the configuration

sent to it from the Pro64 Network Manager application. The programmed settings from Pro64 Network

Manager are retained even after the PC is removed from the network.

To enable control of the 6416Y2 card via Pro64 Network Manager, set DIP switch #9 found in DIP Switch

Block 9 (SW9) to the up position after its firmware has been updated. All 6416Y2 cards in the network must

be set this way in order to be controllable from Pro64 Network Manager. (This switch must be in the down

position for the firmware update.)

Detail view of block SW9 showing DIP switch #9 in the up position to enable Pro64 Network Manager control

Remember that if a 6416Y2 card is the network’s Control Master, DIP switch #10 in block SW9 (Managed

Mode on) must also be in the up position.

When DIP switch #9 in block SW9 is in the down position, the 6416Y2 card will use the settings from its

onboard DIP switches and no changes from Pro64 Network Manager will be allowed. The 6416Y2 card will

still appear as a valid Pro64 device in the Pro64 Network Manager windows while online, but no changes

to any I/O routing, configuration settings, or text edits such as channel names will be allowed until DIP

switch #9 in block SW9 is set to the up position.

How DIP Switch #9 Works

There is only one set of I/O routing parameters available for the 6416Y2 card at a time; DIP switch #9 chooses

which set is used—the one programmed from Pro64 Network Manager or the one defined by the actual

DIP switch settings on the card. Moving DIP switch #9 in block SW9 from the Pro64 Network Manager

control enabled position (up) to local DIP switch control (down) will clear the programming performed

from within Pro64 Network Manager until the switch is returned to the up position and the card (along

with its Yamaha host device) is reconnected to the PC and the settings restored.

Saving a Device Preset will help assure that settings can always be restored to a 6416Y2 card. See page 112

for more information on using Device Presets.
