Operator Manual
>> To connect the routers to the Stage rack 3 units
•
Mic splitters:
In
AES50 audio - bank 1
on the X router, connect sockets 3 and 4
to the
AES50 audio - A
X sockets on the mic splitters. Repeat for the Y router,
using the mic splitters’ Y sockets.
•
Line I/O unit:
In
AES50 audio - bank 1
on the X router, connect socket 6 to the
AES50 audio
X socket on the line I/O unit. Repeat for the Y router, using the
line I/O units’ equivalent Y socket.
>> To connect the XL8 to the line I/O units (FOH rack)
Connect the
AES50 audio
X sockets on the rear of the XL8 Control Centre to the
AES50 audio
X socket on both of the line I/O units in the FOH rack. Repeat for the Y
sockets.
>> To connect the XL8 to the RAPIDE
Connect one of the eight
ETHERNET
(EtherCon® XLR) sockets on the rear of the
RAPIDE unit to the
Ethernet control 1
socket of the active network (X or Y) on the
rear of the XL8 Control Centre (see “XL8 system interconnections” on page 60).
>> To daisy chain the DSP units
Important Note:
Do not connect a cable to like numbered sockets, that is, “0” to “0” or “1” to
“1”, as the DSPs will not work; socket numbers are printed to the right of each
socket.
There are two default configurations available, depending on the lengths of the
interconnecting DSP cables supplied, that is, 0.25 m cables or 0.5 m cables. Both
options contain a long cable for connecting the top and bottom units, and the 0.25 m
option has an additional long cable for connecting units AMU 2 and AMU 9.
A cable’s length (cm) can be determined from a three-digit number contained
within its part number (printed on a label attached to the cable). For example, in
a part number of “14150-EZBB-050-0LC 060425TD” the “-050-” indicates a
length of 50 cm.
Connect the DSPs together as shown in the following diagram, according to the cables
supplied with your system. (In the diagram, the cables are coloured and the sockets
numbered to help distinguish them.)
