Mounting Mini Stagebox; Madi Link - SoundCraft mini Stagebox 32i User's Installation Manual

MOUNTING MINI STAGEBOX 32i
When installed in a 19" rack mount ensure all four mounting holes are
used.
If mounted with other equipment that may get hot it is recommended
to leave a 1U gap between the equipment.
In all scenarios, the air vents must not be obstructed. The Mini
Stagebox 32i must not be mounted in a fully sealed enclosure.
MADI LINK CONNECTIONS
The Mini Stagebox 32i RJ45 connections provide digital audio and
control connections to the console through Cat-5 MADI links.
The corresponding MADI card connections in Soundcraft consoles
transmit the clock for the Mini Stagebox 32i through the MADI stream.
Each card on Si Consoles can only control a single Mini Stagebox mic
pre's functionality.
The second (AUX) connector can be used to provide a redundant
connection to the console, or to connect to a second console. The MAIN/
AUX switch changes the mode of the mic preamp control and
redundancy setting.
- When the switch is set to "MAIN", the console connected to the MAIN
port will have the mic preamp control.
- When the the switch is set to "AUX" the console connected to the AUX
port will have the mic preamp control.
- When the switch is set to "REDUNDANT" the console will operate in
REDUNDANT mode.
The MADI mode light indicates its clock status with the 'LOCK' LED.
It is possible to connect two different consoles to the MAIN and
AUX ports, and provide a split of the mic inputs to the two consoles.
However, be aware of which console has control of the preamp
gains and is able to send signals to the Mini Stagebox 32i outputs.
The main console is determined by the Main/Aux/Redundant
switch.
