Channels are numbered from 1-8 and from 9-16. The Bank Select button

determines which set of channels is being addressed.

Keep in mind that the number of available Slots in the network is determined

by the current network sample rate as set by the Clock Master.

Setting the A-Net Slot Range

To set a Slot range for either the Input or Output section of the 6416dio,

use the inc/dec selection buttons below the A‑Net Slot display to select the

desired range. When the selection button is pressed, the new range displayed

will start to blink, as will the Enter/Cancel button’s LED. This indicates that

confirmation is required to complete the change. Press

to exit without changing the A‑Net Slot range and

return to the previous setting. If no press of the Enter/Cancel button is

detected within a brief period of time, the interface will automatically cancel

the range change request, returning to the previous state.

Setting a new input Slot range on the 6416dio will deactivate any currently

active channels to avoid resource conflicts with other modules in the

network.

Network Mode

The Network Mode section of the 6416dio interface is used to select Auto

Mode or Manual Mode operation and to choose Transmit and Receive ports

for the Input and Output sections of the 6416dio. Note that selection of the

network mode can only be made from the network’s Control Master. See

page 18 for additional information on Network Modes.
