Vivaldifreenet
The Vivaldi Giove FREENETMK2 is an in-wall stand alone amplifier for multiroom audio applications, in a 503-3 modules standard case, and RS-485 control port. As each FREENETMK2 is addressable, multiple units can be connected over a single RS-485 bus. See the Vivaldi FREENETMK2 installation guide for the detailed specifications and requirements.
Contents
Communication
Connect a RS-485 serial port, either directly from the HSYCO Server or via a serial gateway to the RS-485 bus that interconnects the FREENETMK2 units.
RS-485 parameters:
| Baud rate | 57600 |
| Data bits | 8 |
| Stop bit | 1 |
| Parity | none |
| Flow control | none |
FREENETMK2 Configuration
Each FREENETMK2 device connected to the same RS-485 bus must be assigned a unique address.
HSYCO Configuration
Add a VIVALDIFREENET I/O Server in the I/O Servers section of the Settings and set its parameters:
Communication
- Comm ID: select the comm port connected to the Rs-485 bus.
High Availability
- Shutdown when inactive: defaults to true.
