The SD8 worksurface has 8 analogue I/O and 8 AES I/O on its rear panel and additional I/O is supplied in the form of a remote MaDiRack which has 48 analogue inputs and 8 analogue outputs as standard. This rack is connected to the worksurface by 2 x 100M high specifica- tion 75 Ohm coaxial cables fitted with BNC connectors. -

Page 8: Installation Introduction
Digico hope that this manual answers all the questions which may be asked by system designers and installers, but should there be any issues unresolved for your particular installation, the local distributor or the factory will be pleased to assist. -
Page 9: User Option Panels
Digico cannot be responsible for interference caused by the mixer to devices connected to the Accessory Panel, or for interference from the panel affecting the operation of the console. The console should be commissioned and tested without this installed prior to testing user external systems. -

Detailed MADI cable specification and considerations are detailed in Digico Technical Bulletin 106 Synchronisation Connections ............. When the SD8 is used with only analogue signals connected to both inputs and outputs synchronisation does not need to be considered. In this case the mixer is run from its own internal master clock. -

Page 12: I/O Rack Units
It should be noted that all coax MADI connections remain available for use (with the 100m cable length limitation) and can be considered a backup to the optical system, if required. The Optocore® system used in Digico mixers is a high speed digital audio data system that allows multiple interface racks to be connected “daisy chain” along a single optical system. -

Note about LCD Monitors............. In Digico’s experience, if a modern LCD monitor (as opposed to conventional CRT based units) is used at a resolution below its specified design figure, this may actually prove not to work correctly. Typical problems are poor vertical edge definition and shimmering of the picture.
