Part Names and Functions

 

Rear Panel

 

A

 

Grounding screw

 

For safety, use this screw to ground the AD8HR. The 
included power cable has a three-pin plug. If the AC 
outlet is grounded, the AD8HR will be grounded 
correctly via the power cable. If the AC outlet does not 
provide a suitable ground, this screw must be 
connected to a suitable ground point. Grounding is 
also an effective method for eliminating hum, 
interference, and other noise.

 

B

 

[AC IN] connector

 

Connect the included power cable here. First, connect 
the power cable to the AD8HR, then insert the power 
cable plug into the AC outlet.

 

C

 

[HA REMOTE] connector 1

 

This D-sub 9-pin connector is used to connect a 
computer or Yamaha PM5D Digital Console or 
DM2000 to control the AD8HR remotely. In a 
multiple AD8HR system, connect an AD8HR to [HA 
REMOTE] connector 1 on an additional AD8HR.

NOTE: 

 

Please visit the following Yamaha website for the latest 
information about the devices that can control the AD8HR 
remotely.

D

 

[PC RS422] switch

 

If you connect a computer to [HA REMOTE] 
connector 1, set this switch to PC. If you connect a 
Yamaha PM5D or DM2000, or an additional AD8HR 
in a multiple AD8HR system, to [HA REMOTE] 
connector 1, set this switch to RS422.

 

E

 

[HA REMOTE] connector 2

 

In a multiple AD8HR system, connect one AD8HR to 
this D-sub 9-pin connector on another AD8HR.

 

F

 

[DIGITAL OUT A/B] connector

 

These D-sub 25-pin connectors output AES/EBU 
format digital audio. In Double Speed mode, each 
connector outputs digital audio data routed from 
Channels 1–8. In Double Channel mode, the 
[DIGITAL OUT A] connector outputs digital audio 
data routed from Channels 1–4, and the [DIGITAL 
OUT B] connector outputs digital audio data routed 
from Channels 5–8.

 

G

 

[WORD CLOCK OUT] connector

 

This BNC connector outputs a wordclock signal.

 

H

 

[WORD CLOCK IN] connector

 

This BNC connector inputs a wordclock signal. This 
connector is terminated at 75

 

 

.

 

I

 

INPUT 1–8 connectors

 

These balanced XLR-3-31-type connectors are used to
