Welcome Thank you for purchasing the Aviom Pro16™ AV-P2 Output Module. This User Guide is designed to familiarize you with the features of your new Pro16 product and to have you up and running in no time. Features The AV-P2 Output Module is designed to output a 2-channel mono or stereo signal from a Pro16 system.

Pro16 Series Systems A complete Pro16™ Series audio network system consists of at least one Pro16 input module connected to at least one Pro16 output device such as the AV-P2 Output Module, AN-16/o Output Module, or A-16II Personal Mixer. Many configurations are possible by using additional input modules and/or Personal Mixers and output modules. About A-Net Aviom’s A-Net® is a high-speed data transmission protocol.
Cables Used With A-Net Devices 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 this User Guide can be interchanged with any Cat-6 (or better) cable. Cables will be referred to simply as “Cat-5e.
Extending Cable Lengths Cat-5e cables can be extended by using a simple passive device called an inline coupler to add length to existing cables (as long as you do not exceed the specified maximum cable length). If you need a longer cable on occasion, this is a simple solution. Note that it is possible that the maximum cable length specification can be compromised by using inline couplers or other passive cable connection devices.
Panel Descriptions stereo signal from the Pro16 A-Net stream connected to the AV-P2 via its A-Net In port. This section explains the basic layout of the front and rear panels of your new Aviom product. The diagrams on the previous pages can be used as a quick visual guide to the location of the components of the AV-P2 mentioned in this section. The Channel Selector provides mono or stereo output signals based on the settings of the Pro16 network’s input module’s Stereo Link switches.
AV-P2 Rear Panel The rear panel of the AV-P2 Output Module contains the DC power connector, the left/right audio output Euroblock connections, and the A-Net connections. The outputs on the AV-P2 use 5.0 mm Euroblock connectors, and can be connected to balanced or unbalanced audio devices. Male Euroblock jacks are provided. AUDIO OUTPUT 18-24 VDC RIGHT LEFT AV-P2 OUT IN DC POWER 500mA + – Euroblock connectors plug into the sockets on the AV-P2 panel.
Connecting Audio The audio outputs on the AV-P2 Output Module can be connected to balanced or unbalanced devices via the Euroblock jacks. Wiring a Euroblock The Euroblock plug, showing the screws that hold the individual wires in place (left-to-right), hot (+), cold (-), and ground Euroblock connectors provide an easy, solder-free way of making audio connections between the AV-P2 and other audio components. Only a small flat-blade screw driver is required to make connections.
1. Strip the insulating jacket of the cable back about .75 inch (18 mm) to reveal the individual hot and ground wires within. 2. Remove a small amount of each individual wire’s insulation (approximately .25 inch, 6 mm). 3. On the Euroblock plug, use a small screw driver to loosen and open the sockets that will receive the individual wires. 4. Insert the audio cable’s hot (+) wire into the matching socket on the Euroblock plug. 5.

A-Net Connections When creating a Pro16 A-Net system, the simplest connection method uses what is called a daisy chain. That is, each A-Net device is connected in series. The first device in the chain receives its A-Net signal from the AV-M8 Mic Input Module’s A-Net Out port. Each successive A-Net compatible device gets its A-Net connection from the A-Net Out port of the device preceding it in the daisy chain. There is one drawback to this connection method, however.
Pro16 Input Audio Networks A-Net Out A-Net In Pro16 A-Net input and output modules can be combined to create audio networks of up to 64 audio channels with unlimited expansion. A-16D A-Net Out (x8) 8-Channel Systems A-Net In AV-P2 AN-16/o A-16R A-16II The most basic A-Net based system uses one input module connected to one output module or Personal Mixer.
16 Channels In 32-Channel Systems Pro16 Input Aviom’s Pro16 audio networking products work in blocks of 16 channels. Audio networks of 32 channels can be configured as: A-Net, up to 500 feet, 150 meters Up to 16 Channels Out 2 Channels Out 2 Channels Out 2-Channel Mix Out AN-16/o AV-P2 AV-P2 A-16II • 32 channels send by zero channels return (32 x 0 ) • 16 channels send by 16 channels return (16 x 16) • 0 channels send by 32 channels return (0 x 32) ...to teleconferencing head end ...
will be connected to an A-Net Out port. • The A-Net Out ports on the Pro16 output modules should be empty when only four Pro16 Series units are being used to create a network. These ports are then available for adding audio splits with additional Pro16 output modules, or for connecting to a Personal Mixer product such as the A-16II or A-16R. • The cable connecting the two halves of the network (carrying 32 channels of audio) should be connected to one A-Net In port and one A-Net Out port.

Any Pro16 A-Net compatible product with an A-Net In can be connected to an A-Net Out port. This flexible routing scheme allows you to send audio to a variety of different locations and to include Aviom’s Pro16 Monitor Mixing System for mic applications.
