Personal Mixing System Setup

This section explains how the A360 Personal Mixer integrates with other Pro16 devices (sold by
Aviom or third-party partners) to create a personal mixing system. See the detailed User
Guides that came with the Aviom products mentioned in this section for complete information
about their use, features, and setup.

Adding the A360 to an Existing System

The A360 Personal Mixer can be added to existing 16-channel personal mixing systems that use the A-16II

Personal Mixer (and/or the rack-mount version, the A-16R). Most of these systems use the same basic

layout—an input device (analog or a digital console card) is used to generate an A-Net digital signal which

is connected to Personal Mixers either in a daisy chain or with the addition of an A-Net distributor such as

the A-16D Pro for parallel connections and power over A-Net.

In addition to Pro16 analog devices and console cards, the Pro64 ASI A-Net Systems Interface may be

substituted for the input devices seen in the diagrams that follow. Any of the ASI’s four Pro16 A-Net outputs

may be used.

Daisy Chain Connections

In a daisy chained Pro16 personal mixing system, the A-Net signal generated by the input module or

console card is passed from one Personal Mixer to the next, using the combination of the A-Net In and

A-Net Out jacks found on the Personal Mixers. Personal Mixers are powered locally with a DC power

supply.

The rear-panel mode switch on the A360 should be set to P

ro

16 when it is used with the A-16II and A-16R

in a Pro16 personal mixing system with 16 or fewer channels. See page 45 for more information about the

mode switch and its use.
