Deactivating Slots
To deactivate an active Slot on an input device, click the green channel LED; the LED will turn off and the
Slot resource is made available to other devices in the network.
There are no restrictions on output modules; their channels can be turned on/off at any time. No warning
dialogs are required. The 6416Y2 Yamaha card is an exception; its outputs are always active.
Assigning Input Channels to the Matrix
The matrix capabilities of Pro64 Network Manager allow any input channel on a Pro64 device to be
assigned to any network Slot, simplifying complex routings. To access the matrix functionality, a Pro64
device must first be set to
m
AtrIxeD
in the Slot range drop down, found in its Device Window. (AllFrame
devices have their inputs assigned to the matrix by default.)
Once a device has been set to Matrixed, the Inputs to Network view changes to reveal the routing options
for each input channel on the device.
Once Matrixed is selected in the Slot range menu, clicking the arrow next to a Slot’s current assignment will open the
selection menu. Select a new Slot assignment by clicking it number.
In the Select Slot dialog box, The current Slot assignment is shown in green; available, unassigned Slots are
displayed with standard text while Slots that are already active in the network are displayed in italics. The
top of the Select Slot dialog box also offers the option of selecting no channel/Slot assignment, displayed
as

name and source device (if applicable) or
