enumerated and the blue A‑Net LEDs on all Pro64 devices will be lit. On the
Control Master device, its red Control Master LED will also be lit. The Control
Master LED will be off on all remote/slave modules in a network.
Refer to the Control Master section of this User Guide (page 20) for additional
information about the Control Master features and functions.
Control Master Errors
The following rules apply to the Control Master and active Pro64 networks.
If a slave module in an active network is incorrectly switched to be a Control
Master (in addition to the network’s already functioning Control Master),
that module’s Control Master LED will light and the A‑Net LED will go out to
indicate the error. The Control Master LED will remain lit until the module is
returned to slave status.
If a newly powered module set to be the Control Master is added to an active
running network (one that already has a valid Control Master), the new
module’s Control Master LED will light. Its audio I/O resources will remain
unavailable until the module is returned to slave status. All audio on this
module will be muted until the module is set to be a slave.
If the Control Master is removed from a functioning network (by being
disconnected, power failure, etc.), all slave units will reset and audio will be
muted. Slave units will wait for a new Control Master to be designated and at
that point will begin the enumeration process.
A-Net Slot Configuration
The 6416dio Digital I/O Module has two sets of A‑Net Slot interfaces, one
for input channels and another for output channels. These can be set
independently as required.
The A‑Net Slot setting in the Input section of the user interface is used to
set the range of A‑Net Slots that the 6416dio will use to send its active audio
channels into the network. The Slot setting in the Output section of the
interface sets the range of A‑Net Slots that the 6416dio will output as AES3
digital audio data to compatible digital devices.
There are two components to the A‑Net Slot selection interface: the A‑Net
Slot display and the inc/dec buttons used to select a value.
