The following section provides troubleshooting tips for the 6416Y2 card.

Problem

Possible Solutions

Error updating the firmware when a

6416Y2 card is the Control Master

Use a different Pro64 device as Control Master temporarily.

ƒ

Check the

ƒ

baud rate settings: Confirm that on SW4, switches

2, 5 and 8 are in the up position.
Check SW8, DIP switch #9. It must be down for RS‑232

ƒ

communication
Only one 6416Y2 needs to be set as the Control Master.

ƒ

The error (Err) LED on the card’s front

panel is lit.

Channel activation conflict. When programming the card

ƒ

from its internal DIP switches remember that only one of

each network Slot can be activated at a time. Check switch

blocks SW1 and SW2.

Blue A-Net LED is flashing

Check the card’s firmware. The

ƒ

A‑Net LED will flash when an

incompatible device is added to a Pro64 network.

Cannot communicate with Pro64

Network Manager

Make sure that SW8, DIP switch #1 is down for

ƒ

RS‑232

communication.
Incorrect RS‑232 communication settings; in block SW4, set

ƒ

DIP switches 2, 5, and 8 to the up position.

ƒ

Managed Mode switch is not set correctly. In SW9 set DIP

switch #10 up.
Make sure that any DB9 cables in use are null model and not

ƒ

straight through cables.

Audio dropouts or ticks in the audio

Caused by incorrect clocking. When a 6416Y2 card is

ƒ

not the

Control Master, the Yamaha device needs to be set as a clock

slave.
When using multiple Yamaha consoles, only one can have a

ƒ

card set as the Control Master. The other console must be a

clock slave.

Adding new devices to a network

while audio is being output briefly

mutes the audio.

This is normal operation as the network reconfigures itself to

ƒ

adapt to the new device count.
To avoid the audio being muted, plug the new devices into

ƒ

an open port on an MH10 or MH10f Merger Hub.
