- Mini-YGDAI format (supported by most current Yamaha digital consoles)
- One 16-channel A-Net output
- Supports sample rates from 44.1kHz to 48kHz, +/-10%
- Assign audio outputs directly from Yamaha interface
- Channel Link DIP switches for stereo operation
- Mode select switch for 16-channel or 8-channel operation (required for PM1D)
The Aviom16/o-Y1 A-Net Card eliminates the need for an analog input module,
providing a direct digital interface between Yamaha digital products and Aviom's Pro16
Series, including the A-16II and A-16R Personal Mixers.
The Y1 card fits into
any available expansion slot and is compatible with all Yamaha consoles and mix engines
which support the Mini-YGDAI format, including:
01V96
02R96
DM1000
DM2000
PM5D
PM1D (8-channel mode only)
M7CL
DME64N
DME24N
DSP5D
LS9-16
LS9-32
Configuration of an Aviom monitoring
system can be done digitally from the Yamaha console's user interface. Rear-panel DIP
switches are provided for stereo link configuration of each channel pair. Mode switches on
the Y1 allow the A-Net card to be used with Yamaha digital mixers that support only 8-
channel expansion cards, such as the PM1D.
The Y1 card is also compatible
with AV-P2 and AN-16/o Output Modules and the A-16D and A-16D Pro A-Net
Distributors.
As with all Pro16 Series products, Cat-5e cable lengths of up to
500 feet (150 meters) are possible between devices.
**
Note: The original A-16 Personal Mixer (discontinued) is not compatible with
the Y1 A-Net card.

Click image to enlarge This system draws digital audio directly from a Yamaha digital console using the Y1 A-Net Card. The A-Net audio stream is transported to an A-Net Distributor, which supplies audio and power to six Personal Mixers. Two performers monitor with wired earphones, one with headphones, one with a powered wedge speaker, and two use wireless IEMs. Up to eight Personal Mixers can be connected directly to this distributor.
Click image to enlarge This system adds a Pro16 Monitor Mixing System to the 32x16 Pro16 Digital Snake to combine plug-and-play signal transport with the industry standard for personal mixing, all onto a single Cat-5e cable.
The console in this example is fitted with two Y1 A-Net Cards, which send 16 channels of monitor content and up to 16 channels of returns back to the stage. AN-16/i Input Modules can be substituted for returns from an analog console.
Click image to enlarge This monitor system uses two Y1 console interface cards in a Yamaha console to provide two zones of monitor content for performers. The engineer can assign audio channels that are required in both monitoring zones to the same channels in each Y1 card from the console's user interface. At the same time, channels unique to each zone are assigned to a specific card.
Click image to enlarge Forty-eight channels of mic/line inputs on stage are connected to three AN-16/i-M Mic Input Modules. All 48 channels are transported via A-Net using a single Cat-5e cable to FOH, where three AN-16/o Output Modules convert the digital audio to analog for connection to the mixing console.
Sixteen channels of return lines from FOH travel over the same Cat-5e cable by incorporating a digital console card and an AN-16/o Output Module.
The AN- 16SBR System Bridge is used to combine the A-Net streams from four devices onto a single Cat-5e cable.
An AN-16/i Input Module can be substituted for return lines from an analog console.
Whenever possible, converting audio back and forth between analog and digital should be minimized. So if you're using a digital console, you should connect your Aviom monitor system digitally rather than using an analog input module such as the AN-16/i.
Aviom offers several options for direct digital connections to digital consoles. Aviom's Y1 and Y2 A-Net cards can be used to connect seamlessly to Yamaha® digital consoles. In addition, Aviom has partnered with leading digital console manufacturers to develop A-Net option cards for their consoles. Look for the A-Net Active™ logo and consult the Partners section for a complete list of available cards.
Finally, the 6416dio Digital I/O Module may be used to connect digitally to any console that supports AES3 format digital outputs. Aviom's ASI module must then be used to convert the Pro64 A-Net data to the Pro16 format compatible with Aviom's Personal Mixers and other Pro16 Series devices.
The simplest Pro16 digital snake or audio distribution system requires one A-Net input module and one A-Net output module, connected with up to 500 feet (150 meters) of Cat-5e cable.
Simply connect the A-Net Out of one device to the A-Net In of the next. For parallel connections, use the A-16D or A-16D Pro A-Net Distributor. There is no limit to the number of devices that can be connected serially or in parallel.
For higher channel-count runs, use the A-Net Expansion jacks (16x16 or 32x0) or the AN-16SBR System Bridge (up to 32x32, 48x16, or 64x0).

Application Notes
- House Of Worship - Monitor Mixing System
This basic Pro16™ Monitor Mixing System provides independent control over monitor mixes to five members of a Worship Team. Sixteen channels are fed from the console to the Monitor Mixing System, where they are digitized and distributed over standard Cat-5e cables to the individual Personal Mixers.
- House Of Worship - 48 X 16 Snake With Digital Splits and Monitors
The heart of the system is a 64-channel Pro16™ digital snake comprised of 48 inputs on stage and 16 returns from front of house. Stage inputs are also fed to a monitor console in the wings via analog splits on the snake input modules.
