PRONET
PRONET so ware has been designed by Proel's Research & Development Department to easily control a single unit or a network of devices, like
ac ve loudspeakers or speaker processors, equipped with the C-AUDIO CORE digital processing pla orm.
PRONET has been developed in collabora on with sound engineers and sound designers, in order to off er an "easy-to-use" tool to setup and
manage your audio system. With PRONET you can visualize signal levels, monitor internal status and edit all the parameters of each connected
device.
Download the PRONET app from the PROEL website at h p://www.proel.com clicking on support sec on.
The NEOS AXS loudspeaker devices can be connected using the network connec on, in this case the PROEL USB2CAN converter op onal accessory
is needed. The fi rst me you connect a device with the USB2CAN converter, Windows O.S. will ask you to install the driver fi les, which you can
fi nd in the Driver folder within the Pronet applica on folder (by default is C:\Program Files\Proel\Pronet\Driver, or if you changed it <your path>\
Driver). Please refer also to "Installa on" and "Drivers" paragraphs in the Pronet documenta on.
The PRONET NETWORK is based on a robust, reliable and fast communica on protocol called CANBUS. The devices in a PRONET NETWORK are
connected together with a "linear bus topology". The USB2CAN converter must be connected to the network input of the fi rst device, the network
output of the fi rst device is connected to the input of the second and so on. For the network connec ons simple RJ45 cat.5 or cat.6 ethernet
cables can be used (please don't confuse a ethernet network with a PRONET network these are completely diff erent and must be fully separated
also both use the same kind of cable).
The beginning and the end of a PRONET NETWORK must be terminated. One side is terminated by the USB2CAN converter, the other side must
be terminated pressing the TERMINATE switch on the last device. All devices between these two points must have the TERMINATE switch li ed.
Assign the ID number
To work properly in a PRONET network each connected device must have a unique iden fi er number, called ID. By default the USB2CAN PC
controller has ID=0 and there can be only one PC controller. Every other device connected must have its own unique ID equal or greater than 1:
in the network cannot exist two devices with the same ID.
An ID number is assigned automa cally to each devices when they are turned on for the fi rst me connected to a network.
In order to correctly assign a new available ID to each device for working properly in a Pronet network, follow these instruc ons:
1. Switch off all the devices.
2. Connect them correctly to the network cables.
3. "TERMINATE" the latest device in the network connec on.
4. Switch on the fi rst device keep pressed "RTA" bu on on the control panel.
5. Leaving the previous device switched on, repeat the previous opera on on the next device, un l the latest device is turned on.
The "Assign ID" procedure for a device makes the internal network controller to perform two opera ons: reset the current ID; search the fi rst free
ID in the network, star ng from ID=1. If no other devices are connected (and powered on), the controller assume ID=1, that is the fi rst free ID,
otherwise it searches the next one le free.
These opera ons ensure that every device has it's own unique ID, if you need to add a new device to the network you simply repeat the opera on
of step 4. Every device maintains its ID also when it is turned-off , because the iden fi er is stored in the internal memory and it is cleared only by
another "Assign ID" step, as explained above. This means that if your network is made always of the same devices the assigning ID procedure must
be executed only the fi rst me the system is turned on.
