Audio connections for a digital input/output unit

The DIO8 digital input/output unit can accommodate up to eight digital I/O cards or analog I/O cards, according to
your system. The following diagrams show examples of connecting the DIO8 to digital recorders in ADAT, Tascam, and
AES/EBU formats.

When connecting a digital device via a digital I/O
card installed in the DIO8, the PM1D system and the
digital device must be synchronized to the same
word clock. (If they are not synchronized, the input/
output signal of that device may be muted, or may
produce click noise.)
For details on the settings required to use a digital
device as a slave, refer to the manual for that device.
When using an MY8-AT card to handle ADAT for-
mat signals, synchronization may tend to be lost eas-
ily, depending on the device that is connected. For
more reliable synchronization, we recommend that
the word clock for the combination of digital audio
equipment you are using be taken from other than
the ADAT format connector.
