4.1 Intended use
The D40 I/O Panel is intended for rack mounting only and must
not be used stand-alone outside of a rack.
Within an amplifier system rack, it acts as connecting interface for
both analog and digital audio INPUT and INPUT LINK connectors.

4.2.1 INPUT
The INPUT section represents the input connectors of the first
amplifier while the other two (five) amplifiers are linked within the
rack. The INPUT section allows both analog and digital audio
signals to be fed to the amplifier.
4.2.2 INPUT LINK
The INPUT LINK section represents the link output connectors of the
last (third/sixt) amplifier and allows the linking of further system
racks.
4.2.3 Remote network option
You can daisy chaining the rack assemblies within a remote
network using the enclosed rack link cable (Z5333.001).
For remote purposes via Ethernet/OCA, it is strongly
recommended to use the prewired configuration in combination
with the DN1 when linking entire rack assemblies, as shown in the
graphic opposite. It is recommended to link a maximum of up to 6
rack assemblies in this way.
