Cat-5e
All Cat-5e connections between A-Net devices should use Unshielded
Twisted Pair (UTP) cable. The cable can be of the stranded or solid type;
solid wire performs better over long distances while stranded wire is
more flexible and easier to manipulate and therefore easier to work
with in a performance situation.
Cables designated as Cat-5e in Pro64 documentation can be
interchanged with any Cat-6 (or better) cable. Cables will be referred to
simply as “Cat-5e.”
Connectors on Cat-5e cables can be of the standard RJ45 variety or of
the locking Neutrik EtherCon type.
Firmware Update
The Pro64 firmware can be updated in the field using a PC and the
Pro64 Update Tool. Modules can be updated over A-Net, while part of
an active audio network, or in local mode where no other modules are
connected at the time the update is being performed (such as may be
required for a bench configuration when setting up modules prior to
installation).
Updating a module requires the Aviom Pro64 Update Tool application, a
PC host computer with RS-232 connection capability, a null modem DB9
cable, and the update file for the particular Pro64 device being updated.
Refer to the Aviom website for information about the availability of the
latest firmware upgrades and feature updates.
The MH10 or MH10f must be connected to another Pro64 device with
Virtual Data Cable™ capability in order to be updated.
