PRONET AX
PRONET AX software has been developed in collaboration with sound engineers and sound designers, in order to offer an “easy-to-use” tool to
setup and manage your audio system. With PRONET AX you can visualize signal levels, monitor internal status and edit all the parameters of each
connected device.
Download the PRONET AX app from the AXIOM website at http://www.axiomproaudio.com/ clicking on downloads section of the product.
The AXIOM active loudspeaker devices can be connected in a network and controlled by the PRONET AX software, for the network connection the
PROEL
USB2CAN
(with 1-port) or the
USB2CAN-D
(with 2-port) converter optional accessory is needed.
PRONET AX network is based on a “bus-topology” connection, where the first device is connected to the network input connector of the second
device, the second device network output is connected to the network input connector of the third device, and so on. To ensure a reliable
communication the first and the last device of the “bus-topology” connection must be terminated.
This can be done by pressing the “TERMINATE”
switch near the network connectors in the rear panel of the first and the last device.
For the network connections simple RJ45 cat.5 or cat.6
ethernet cables can be used (please don’t confuse a ethernet network with a PRONET AX network these are completely different and must be
fully separated also both use the same kind of cable).
Assign the ID number
To work properly in a PRONET AX network each connected device must have a unique identifier number, called ID. By default the USB2CAN-D PC
controller has ID=0 and there can be only one PC controller. Every other device connected must have its own unique ID equal or greater than 1:
in the network cannot exist two devices with the same ID.
In order to correctly assign a new available ID to each device for working properly in a Pronet AX network, follow these instructions:
1.
Switch off all the devices.
2.
Connect them correctly to the network cables.
3.
“TERMINATE” the end device in the network connection.
4.
Switch on the first device keep pressed “PRESET” button on the control panel.
5.
Leaving the previous device switched on, repeat the previous operation on the next device, until the latest device is turned on.
The “Assign ID” procedure for a device makes the internal network controller to perform two operations: reset the current ID; search the first free
ID in the network, starting from ID=1. If no other devices are connected (and powered on), the controller assume ID=1, that is the first free ID,
otherwise it searches the next one left free.
These operations ensure that every device has it’s own unique ID, if you need to add a new device to the network you simply repeat the operation
of step 4. Every device maintains its ID also when it is turned-off, because the identifier is stored in the internal memory and it is cleared only by
another “Assign ID” step, as explained above.
With the network made always of the same devices the assigning ID procedure must be executed only the first time the system is turned on.
