By default, the CONSOLE INPUT jacks are patched to CH33–
CH40.
When connection cables with resistors are used, the volume
level of equipment connected to the inputs (CONSOLE INPUT,
STEREO IN, TALKBACK MIC IN) may be low. If this happens,
use connection cables that do not contain resistors.

2. CONSOLE OUTPUT jacks

external effects device" (p. 111).

3. REAC ports (A,B,SPLIT/BACKUP)
fig.REACPortGuide.eps
• REAC A, B ports
These are RJ45 connectors for connecting input/output units
such as the S-1608, S-0816, or S-4000S via Cat5e Ethernet cables.
These connectors support Cat5e Ethernet cables up to 100
meters long. If you need a longer connection, we recommend
that you use the optional S-OPT.
• SPLIT/BACKUP port
This is used as a backup connection for the REAC A port, or for
split connection. You can also use it for multitrack recording on
a PC in which you've installed the REAC driver.
For details on backup connections and split connections, refer to
"REAC applications" (p. 157).
The REAC A and B ports and the SPLIT/BACKUP port have REAC
indicators that show the REAC communication status. The state of
the REAC indicator has the following significance.
Status Explanation
Unlit No connection with a REAC device has been es-
tablished.
Lit A backup connection or split connection with a
REAC device has been established.
Blinking Connected normally with a REAC device.
