Powering an AVM500-ES for the first time
6.4 Limitations of the Mono Network Mode
Mono Network Mode is the factory default mode, and the simplest way to use AVM500-ES. Nevertheless this mode as also
few limitations that do not allows the user to take the best of the possibilities of the device.
6.4.1
Port {Aout} inactive
Looking back to Fig. 1, we can see that the output port of port A is already used to communicate with the four other devices
via the internal switch. Doing so, the back-panel port {Aout} is unwired in this mode. Plugging an EtherSound compatible
device on this port has no effect.
6.4.2
Remote control through 3
rd
Port – ES100/ESV2
Back-panel port {3
rd
} is the computer local access point of the device, regarding to ES100 technology. Please refer to the
proper EtherSound manual if you are not used with ES100 standard and especially 3
rd
port access. This port accepts only
a computer for remote control. No EtherSound compatible device should be plugged on it (Fig. 15).
Connecting a computer on this port allows you to remote control the whole network directly from this point. Plugging the
control PC on the Primary Master input port is no more mandatory.
Nevertheless, the limitation of Mono Network Mode is that all EtherSound compatible devices of the network must be ES100
compatible (Fig. 13). If an old ES-V2 device is inside the network, you will not be able to control and monitor the network
through the 3
rd
port (Fig. 14).
