S6L Network Connections 39
Example 6: Single System Expanded I/O (Mixed Stage I/O and Local 16)
112 In/64 Out
When 2x AVB Network cards are installed in the E6L engine, Local 16 I/O can be installed on the console/engine ring. Figure 7
shows a Local 16 in a system with an S6L-16C, E6L engine with 2x AVB Network cards, 2x Stage 32s, and 4x Stage 16s.
Requirements
• To use any number of Local 16s with S6L systems, two AVB-192 Network Cards must be installed in all E6L Engines.
• Local 16 requires VENUE software version 6.1 or later.
• Up to two Local 16s can be used with S6L-16C. Other S6L control surfaces support a single Local 16.
To connect components:
1 Connect S6L control surface Network port A to Network port B on the top-most AVB Network Card of the E6L engine.
2 Connect Network port A on the top-most AVB Network card of the E6L engine to Network port B on the Local 16.
3 Connect Network port A on the Local 16 to Network port B on the S6L control surface.
4 Do the following to connect Stage I/O:
• Connect
Network port A on the E6L Master 1 (lowest slot) AVB Network Card to Network port B on the first Stage 64.
• Daisy-chain the first Stage I/O to the second Stage I/O by connecting
Network port A on the first Stage I/O to Network port
B on the second Stage I/O. Repeat for any additional Stage I/O units (connect A to B).
5 Connect an Ethernet cable from Network port A on the last Stage I/O unit in the chain to Network port B on the Master 1 AVB
Network Card (AVB card in the lowest slot) on the E6L engine.
6 Proceed to Powering the System Up and Down.
