When the Control Master module is powered up, the network will be
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.
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. All other module functions will operate normally.
If a new 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 A‑Net Slot section of the interface is used to set the range of A‑Net Slots
that the 6416i will use to send its active audio channels into the network.
There are two components: the A‑Net Slot display and the inc/dec buttons
used to select a value.
Press the up/down buttons to select an A-Net Slot range.
On a sixteen‑channel module like the 6416i, the A‑Net Slot display will move
in increments of sixteen Slots. The A‑Net Slot range display will wrap as it
reaches the end of the list of available values. The number shown in the
display corresponds to the first Slot in a group of sixteen sequential Slots,
one per channel button. The available base Slots are 1, 17, 33, and 49.
