6416Y2 set as Control Master
Choose a Control Master
The first step in setting up a Pro64 network is to decide which Pro64 device will be the Control Master. A Pro64
network always has one Control Master and one Clock Master. The Control Master is in charge of network‑wide
settings, channel/Slot management, Virtual Data Cable allocation, error messaging, etc. The Clock Master controls
the network sample rate and can allow the use of external word clock sources if 6416dio Digital I/O Modules or
AllFrame devices are part of the network. Any I/O device can be the Control Master, but only one Pro64 device
may be in control of the network at a time.
