Connecting A Digital Input/Output Unit To The Engines (Mirror Mode) - Yamaha CS1D Owner's Manual

Connecting a digital input/output unit to the engines (Mirror
mode)
The following diagram shows the usual method of connecting the engines to a digital input/output unit in Mirror mode.

OUTPUT B
INPUT 1
When using a DIO8 digital input/output unit in Mirror
mode, only the input/output cards installed in slots 1–4
can be used.
Connect the OUTPUT A connector of the DIO8 digital
input/output unit to one of the INPUT 1–10 connectors
of engine A, and connect the OUTPUT B connector to
an INPUT 1–10 connector of engine B. In the same way,
connect the INPUT A connector of the DIO8 to one of
the OUTPUT 1–6 connectors of engine A, and connect
the INPUT B connector to an OUTPUT 1–6 connector
of engine B.
In Mirror mode, INPUT connectors A and B of the
DIO8 must be connected to the identically-num-
bered OUTPUT connector of engines A and B. Simi-
larly, OUTPUT connectors A and B of the DIO8
must be connected to the identically-numbered
INPUT connector of engines A and B.
Be aware that if differently-numbered connectors are
used, the content of the input and output signals will
change when you switch between engines A and B.

When using the system in mirror mode, set the
DIO8's front panel PORT B SELECTOR switch to 5–
8 if you will be using connector A as the default, or to
1–4 if using connector B as the default.
Be careful not to connect inputs and outputs in
reverse. If you do so, the unit will not be recognized,
and cannot be controlled.
When using an MY8-AT card to handle ADAT for-
mat signals, synchronization may tend to be lost
easily, 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.
