1-8 — Merges the incoming A-Net data
from ports 1-8 to one stream and distributes the
merged data to ports 8-10. A redundant data path is
created when either two MH10 (Cat-5e) or two MH10f
(fiber) units are connected together via ports 9 and 10.
Port 8 is special when configuration C is used. It inputs
data to the Merger function and outputs the complete
merged 64-channel stream, providing a local digital
split of all inputs.
Incoming A-Net data streams from ports 9 and 10 are
distributed to ports 1-7.
A-Net Port LEDs
Valid A-Net data connected to any of the rear-panel A-Net ports is
indicated by a lit A-Net activity LED on the front panel.
The activity LED lights to indicate the presence of a valid A-Net stream.
Ports 4, 6, 7, and 9 are shown as active.
A-Net LED
The blue LED found within the A-Net logo functions as the network
activity indicator. When a module is powered up, its A-Net LED will flash
while a request to enter the network is sent to and then processed by
the Control Master. Once a module is enumerated and is part of the
Pro64 network, the blue A-Net LED will light solidly.
The blue A-Net LED is also used during the firmware update process.
Firmware updates on an MH10/MH10f must be initiated from another
Pro64 device which has VDC capability.
