An expanded network using a D400, D800, and A-16D Pro allows up to 24 Personal Mixers to be connected.
An unlimited number of A-Net Distributors may be used to create a personal mixing system. Simply
connect A-Net Out to A-Net In.
Stereo Link DIP Switches
Stereo pairs are a powerful feature that allow two channels to be accessed from a single mix channel
button on the A360 and A320 Personal Mixers. The two blocks of 8 DIP switches on the front panel of the
D400 and D400-Dante can be used to link pairs of adjacent network channels/slots.
On the D400-Dante, the stereo links must be set up at the A-Net Distributor; stereo links are created
after the incoming Dante data is converted to A-Net. Push a DIP switch to the up position to link a pair of
channels. Stereo links always use an odd/even pair (1-2, 15-16, 31-32, etc.) of network slots. Changes may be
made at any time; all Personal Mixers update immediately to reflect the changes.
Typically, most users will set up stereo links at the system’s input device(s). On the standard version of the
D400 the user has the option of creating stereo pairs at
either
the input device or on the D400 front panel.
A bypass DIP switch—

—is included that will bypass all stereo link settings on the
D400’s front panel. Its default position is
down
(front panel switches bypassed) assuming that the personal
mixing system’s input devices are providing the stereo links.
