Flexible Input Configuration
In addition to balanced analog inputs and throughputs that are permanently
installed on the rear panel, the TXn series amplifiers feature a Yamaha
mini-YGDAI standard card slot that comes supplied with an AES/EBU I/O card
for digital input and throughput. The analog and digital inputs can be used
independently, or signals can be applied to both and mixed or switched

NetworkAmp Manager II for Comprehensive Central Control
NetworkAmp Manager II is a software application that lets you monitor,
manage, and control all TXn amplifier functions and DSP parameters. If you
will be combining TXn series amplifiers with Yamaha Tn, PC-1N, XP, XM and/or
XH series amplifiers, the available functions of those amplifiers can be
accessed as well if they are connected to the network via a Yamaha ACD1
Amplifier Controller Device.

AES/EBU I/O card can be replaced with compatible Yamaha mini-YGDAI cards
that provide other digital or analog input/output formats, or with network cards
that allow full compatibility with CobraNet or EtherSound audio networks.

The NetworkAmp Manager II software runs on Windows based computers. No
special drivers are required: simply connect your computer's Ethernet port to
a standard high-speed Ethernet hub, and then the hub ports can be directly
connected to the TXn amplifiers to be controlled/monitored. Once set up you
can use the software's efficient, intuitive graphical interface to remotely
monitor and control each device on the network.
In addition to comprehensive control and monitoring capability, the
NetworkAmp Manager II software also provides a number of features that
make managing and controlling large multi-amp systems easy and
efficient. You can name amps according to their function within your
system, group amplifiers for simultaneous control, and name the groups
for easy identification. For example, you might want to mute just the left
FOH high-frequency stack, or solo just the right FOH low-frequency stack
during a sound check. NetworkAmp Manager II makes this type of control
fast and easy.
There are also many advanced, flexible monitoring functions. NetworkAmp
Manager II can, for example, warn you when a parameter exceeds a
pre-defined voltage, 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.

System Examples
Basic AES/EBU setup with analog backup
TXn amplifiers are fed digital signals via AES/EBU. TXn can be
configured to automatically switch to analog input when fault is
detected on the AES/EBU input.
Analog setup using TXn
and Tn amplifiers
This analog setup is supplied an analog
NetworkAmp
source signal directly from the mixing
Manager II
console.
The TXn is driving subwoofers, with channels Subwoofer
A and B driven in parallel mode. The Tn
amplifiers are driving full range speakers,
receiving processed signal from the TXn
using the MY4-DA analog output card.
This example is a mono setup, as all channels
Subwoofer
on the T5n amplifiers are receiving the same
processed signal from the TXn.
Optional ACD1 unit is required for remote
control and monitoring of the Tn amplifiers.
A digital PA system
Digital domain of your PA system is now expanded to keep signal digital right from
the input(AD8HR), the mixing console, and to the amplifiers(TXn). The
combination of AD8HR and NAI48ES may be used as a stagebox solution to send
signals to the FOH mixing console via EtherSound. Mixed signals are sent back to
the NAI48ES, and then on to the TXn amplifiers for processing and amplification.
NetworkAmp Manager II software is used for status monitoring and control,
connected to the amplifiers via standard Ethernet switches.
