Analog - Digital Configuration 

The  audio  inputs  and  outputs  can  be  configured  as  analog  or  digital  interfaces.  When 

configured as analog interfaces, a maximum of four analog audio inputs/channels and four 

analog audio outputs/channels are available. 

When  configured  as  digital  interfaces,  a  maximum  of  four  AES  inputs  (eight  audio 

channels) and four AES outputs (eight audio channels) are available. 

When set to analog, the full-scale level adjustments are added to the inputs and outputs. 

 

General Purpose Interface (GPI) 

The greenMachine titan provides four inputs and four outputs General Purpose Interfaces 

(GPI) via an RJ45 connector. The pinning of the RJ45 connector is according to TIA/EIA 

568-B. The pin layout is given in the table below: 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

No GPI functions are implemented yet. Will be added in future versions. 

 

 

 

Power Supply Connectors DC1 and DC2 (PSU) 

The greenMachine titan is equipped with two power supply connectors (DC1 and DC2) 
for primary and secondary power supply. Loop connecting two greenMachines is to be 
avoided. Do not connect and disconnect DC plugs under load. Disconnect AC power 
first. Refrain from high mating cycle counts.
