Once the Cat-5 cables are configured as shown in the example, the 64-channel Pro16e stream created
by this setup appears at the
A-N
et

ut
on the last (fourth) AN-16/i v.2. Connect a Cat-5e cable from its
A-N
et
O

to the
A-N
et
I
N
on an A-Net distributor such as the A-16D Pro and then connect Cat-5 cables
from the distributor to the A360 Personal Mixers.
Using Legacy Input Hardware
The
first
input device in a daisy chain of input devices may be a legacy Pro16 input module (e.g., original
AN-16/i or AN-16/i-M Mic Input Module) or console card (e.g., Aviom’s Y1 card for Yamaha® devices or a
partner card). These channels are automatically assigned to channels 1-16, and other AN-16/i v.2 Input
Modules in the system must be set to Slot Range 17-32, 33-48, and/or 49-64.
A legacy device such as a digital console card defaults to Slot Range 1-16 when connected to an AN-16/i v.2.
To use a legacy Pro16 device in a Pro16e personal mixing system:
Connect a Cat-5 cable from the
1.
A-N
et
O
ut
on the legacy device to
A-N
et
I
N
on the
AN-16/i v.2 input Module.
Set the AN-16/i v.2
2.
Slot Range to
17-32
.
To add more channels, connect additional AN-16/i v.2 Input Modules with Cat-5 cables in
3.
the same manner; set their Slot Ranges to
33-48
, and/or
49-64
.
At this time, there is no ability to connect multiple legacy Pro16 input devices, including console cards, to
create expanded channel count for A360 Personal Mixers. Systems with digital consoles may use a single
Pro16 A-Net card but must use analog outputs from the console to connect to AN-16/i v.2 Input Modules
for additional channels and a Pro16e stream.
