Front Panel Features

This section describes the features and functions of all front‑panel

components of the 6416o Output Module. Other than the output level

switches, most front panel features are common on the 6416o and 6416o v.2.

Unless otherwise noted, all references to the 6416o apply to the 6416o v.2 as

well. Either model can be used when creating Pro64 systems.

Enter/Cancel Buttons

The pair of buttons marked En t E r and Ca n C E l will be used to confirm

functions and mode changes or to exit a change request. The LED between

the two buttons will flash whenever the user is required to press one of these

buttons in order to continue with an operation or edit.

A-Net LED

The blue LED found within the A‑Net logo functions as the network activity

indicator. When a module is powered up, its A‑Net LED will flash while a

request to enter the network is sent to and then processed by the device

designated as Control Master. Once a module is enumerated and is part of

the network, the blue A‑Net LED will light solid. The LED will remain lit as

long as valid A‑Net network data is received.

The A-Net LED lights blue when the 6416o is active on the network.

The A‑Net LED will flash during an operating system upgrade when the

module being updated is part of an active network. When a module is being

bench configured (it is not part of an active network), the A‑Net LED will

be off during the firmware update. (Check the Aviom website for current

firmware updates.)

Control Master

One Pro64 module in every network must be designated as the Control

Master. To set the 6416o as the Control Master, one of the DIP switches on

the rear panel in the VDC section is used. In the group of RS‑232 DIP switches,

switch #10 is used to designate a module as the Control Master. Set this
