Conventions Used in this Document
Using Personal Mixers
When referring to the use of the Personal Mixers in a personal mixing system in general, the term
Personal Mixer is used to describe a case where an A360 Personal Mixer, A-16II Personal Mixer, or an A-16R
Rack-mount Personal Mixer (with or without the optional A-16CS Control Surface) can be used.
Cat-5 Cables
In most cases Cat-5e, Cat-6, and Cat-6e cables can be interchanged. When speaking about interconnections
between components in a system, the term Cat-5 is used generically to indicate the use of any of the
applicable cable types.
A-Net Distributors
The D800, A-16D and A-16D Pro A-Net Distributors are referred to generically as A-Net Distributors. All are
used to copy an A-Net digital signal and split it into multiple copies so that devices may be connected in
parallel. In a case where either the D800 or D800-Dante version of the product may be used, the text will
reference the D800.
Button Presses
When instructed to press a specific button, or when referring to a specific port, jack, etc., on a product, a
special font style is used. For example, “Connect a Cat-5 cable to the A-N
et
I
N
port.”
Slots
Audio channels from analog input devices or digital console cards connected to the network are referred
to as slots. There are a total of 64 slots in an A-Net network.
