Welcome
Thank you for purchasing the 6416dio Digital I/O Module. This User Guide
is designed to familiarize you with the features and functions of your
new Pro64® product. All Pro64 products are powered by A‑Net®, Aviom’s
proprietary data transmission protocol designed especially for the unique
demands of live streaming audio. In developing the Pro64 Series, we have
made every effort to make the user interface as easy to use and understand
as possible. We encourage you to read the manual completely, as some of the
powerful features of your new product may not be immediately apparent.

designed to make audio networking with Pro64 Series products easy to set
