This example shows stereo links set up on the D400 for network slots 5-6, 9-10, 11-12, and 15-16 in block #1.
Network slots 17-18, 19-20, and 29-30 are stereo in block #2 (switch handles are shown in red).
Any combination of the Stereo Link DIP switches may be used; in the up position, stereo links are
transmitted over A-Net to all Personal Mixers in the network. Be sure to set the

A-Net Offset Base Slot
On the D400, the

feature allows you to choose the starting channel to be output
from the A-Net Out ports to all connected Personal Mixers. It can be used with the A360 and A320, as
well as legacy A-16II Personal Mixers. This feature is useful in high channel count systems (with up to 64
inputs) and/or multiple A-Net Distributors where you want to have different network slots assigned to
different players in a performing ensemble. Incoming A-Net slots are rearranged before being sent to the
connected Personal Mixers; the Stereo Link switches are implemented
after
the base slot selection.
The A-Net Offset Base Slot feature only applies to the eight powered A-Net (1-8) outputs on the D400;

is not affected and always passes an exact copy of all incoming A-Net data.
