VDC Slot 14 on the 6416o
is set to receive MIDI In
from the rear-panel jack.
A remote Pro64 device
set to output MIDI data.
RS-232 Port
The Pro64 RS‑232 VDC ports allow a pair of devices to transfer control data at
rates up to 57.6k baud. Using the RS‑232 Virtual Data Cables always requires
two VDCs because RS‑232 data transfers require communicating devices to
be set up in a handshaking pair. Note that RS‑232 communication is point‑to‑
point, meaning that a maximum of seven RS‑232 sessions (14 total devices)
are possible when using Pro64 Virtual Data Cables.
The first eight switches on the DIP switch block are used to set the RS-232
baud rate. (DIP switch handles are indicated in black.)
The RS‑232 port is also used for computer communication for software
updates and other Managed Mode applications.
The RS‑232 port on the 6416o uses a 9‑pin DB9 connector and eight of the
ten DIP switches in the DIP switch block (the remainder are used for system
functions).
