Notes Regarding the Use of
Network Switches
We recommend a gigabit-compatible network switch that
provides functions for controlling and monitoring the
network (such as QoS).
Do not use the EEE functionality (*) of network switches
on a Dante network.
Although mutual power consumption settings between
switches that support the EEE functionality are adjusted
automatically, there are some switches for which such
mutual settings are not adjusted correctly.
This may cause EEE to be enabled in Dante networks when
it is not appropriate, resulting in poor synchronization
performance and occasional dropouts.
Therefore we strongly recommend the following.
• If you use managed switches, please disable the EEE
functionality. Do not use switches that prevent EEE
functionality from being disabled.
• When using unmanaged switches, do not use switches
that support EEE functionality. EEE functionality cannot
be disabled for such switches.
* EEE (Energy Efficient Ethernet) is a technology that
reduces switch power consumption during periods of low
network traffic. It is also referred to as Green Ethernet and
IEEE802.3az.

About Dante Controller

Dante Controller is a software application that allows
configuration and audio routing of Dante networks. Use
this application if you plan to connect or set up Dante-
enabled devices that do not feature RSio64-D-native
support. Please download the Dante Controller application
from the website listed below.
Please note that Dante Controller Version 3.2.1 or later
supports RSio64-D.

To run Dante Controller, a computer must feature a GbE-
compatible Ethernet connector.
Refer to the Dante Controller owner's manual for details on
Dante Controller.

Notes Regarding the Use of Network Switches

Connecting AC Power

1.
Turn the unit off.
2.
Connect the plug on the AC power cord to the
AC IN connector on the rear panel of the unit.
3.
Connect the other side of the plug on the AC
power cord to a power supply socket.
NOTE
• When removing the AC power cord, perform these steps in
reverse.
• Press the latch button on the plug to disconnect the power
cord.
WARNING
• The RSio64-D has been designed assuming it a proper
ground connection is used. To prevent electrical shock and
damage to devices, use the included AC power cord to
create a secure ground connection. If you do not know how
to make a proper ground connection, contact your Yamaha
dealer.
• Be sure to use only the included power cord with this unit.
Use of a different power cord could result in abnormal heat
and electrical shock.
CAUTION
• Be sure to turn the power off before connecting or
disconnecting the power cord.
• Even when the power switch is turned off, a small amount of
current is flowing through the unit. When you are not using
the product for a long time, make sure to unplug the power
cord from the power supply outlet.

Power on and off

To prevent loud sounds that might harm your hearing or
damage equipment downstream, poweron each unit in the
order of the signal flow. When turning the power off,
reverse this order.
