NetworkAmp Manager
Comprehensive network management software for advanced, large-scale digital audio networks
Full control and monitoring of extended Tn and PC-1N Series amp systems
Os painéis traseiros dos amplificadores de potência da série Tn tem conectores RJ45 que permitem a conexão com equipamentos Yamaha ACU-16C Amp Control Unit para controle remoto e monitoração da condição, além de controle de parâmetros como ligar/desligar, mute, e atenuação, a partir de um computador. Além disso, avisos podem ser apresentados quando limites presetados em parâmetros são ultrapassados, e o log automático contribui para a solução fácil e eficiente de problemas. Com um hub/ponte de rede NHB32-C também é possível o controle remoto de diversas unidades usando uma rede CobraNet™. Além dos recursos de controle de amplificação do ACU-16C, ele também pode funcionar como um conversor DA de alta precisão, recebendo sinal de áudio digital em 24-bits pela rede CobraNet™.
NHB32-C network hub and bridge function management
CobraNet™ is capable of transferring eight channels of 20-bit data or seven channels of 24-bit data per bundle. The NetworkAmp Manager application can be used to assign the audio data inputs and outputs for each bundle. Each NHB32-C can transmit and receive up to four bundles of audio data. Received AES/EBU audio data can be assigned to four bundles to be transferred via the CobraNet™ network, and bundles received via the network can be assigned to AES/EBU signals as required.
CobraNet channel and analog output assignment for ACU16-C
A single ACU16-C unit can receive up to four digital audio bundles via CobraNet™ and convert any specified 16 channels to analog output. The NetworkAmp manager makes it possible to assign the CobraNet™ input and output bundles as required.NetworkAmp Manager lets you specify which 16 of the 32 available channels of digital audio data will be output in analog form and sent to the Tn or PC-1N series amplifiers. An intuitive parameter layout makes setup fast and easy.
ACU16-C amplifier control function management
Another major feature of the NetworkAmp Manager is its ability to automatically monitor the operation of each amplifier via the ACU16-C. Each ACU16-C can handle as many as 32 amplifiers, making it easy to keep track of and control specific amplifier groups. A channel detail window provides graphical monitoring and controls for each channel, including power-on/standby, attenuation in 62 steps, phase (normal/reverse), mute (on/off), input and output metering, heat sink temperature, and load impedance (current, max. hold, min. hold).
Warning and automated logging
Using the ACU16-C amp control function the NetworkAmp Manager can warn you when a parameter exceeds a redefined wattage, temperature, or impedance (upper/lower) value. This lets you keep track of all amplifiers in the system from a central computer display in real time. Warnings are automatically logged to an info file so it's easy to pinpoint and troubleshoot problems.
