CobraNet Manager Lite for Yamaha Owner's Manual 10 Bundle Numbers Set the appropriate bundle numbers using one of the methods described below to allow transfer of audio signals between transmitting and receiving devices. Connecting Multiple MY16-CII Cards Only via Matrix View This method selects the bundle numbers automatically and is only useful for setting up bundles that will be transmitted and received between the MY16-CII cards displayed in the Matrix View. Click on the Matrix View to create a connection or "point, " as described below. When a connection is created, bundle numbers are set for the transmitting and receiving devices, allowing audio signal transfer. "Tx" is the transmit bundle and "Rx" is the receive bundle. The numbers following Tx or Rx are the socket numbers that indicate the order of the transmit and receive bundles. When a new connection point is created, unicast bundles (black lines) are specified by default. Note: Audio signals cannot be transferred if the latencies of the transmitting and receiving devices differ. Set the same latency for both devices via the "Yamaha Device Settings" window (page 16). Figure 8: Matrix View CobraNet Manager Lite for Yamaha Owner's Manual 11 2. To change a connection to multicast or multi-unicast bundles, click on the vertical line that goes through the target connection point to open the bundle type editing window. Note: Unicast bundles are only transmitted to single devices which have been set to the same bundle number as the transmitting device.
