Yamaha CL5 Reference Manual page 224

NOTE
• In Surround mode, you cannot use cascade output on MIX buses1-6. In addition, if you have
selected 5.1 SOLO in CUE mode, you cannot monitor CUE from the cascade slave at the
cascade master.
• If you are making a cascade connection between the CL unit and the PM5D, you can use the CL
unit as the cascade slave by setting the PM5D's CASCADE IN PORT SELECT to a slot. However,
only the audio signals will be cascaded, and the control signals cannot be linked.
• You can also use an AD/DA card to make cascade connections with an analog mixer.
• There is no limit to the number of units that can be cascade-connected, but the signal delay at
the cascade slave will increase in accordance with the number of units from the cascade master.
