About the Remote Controller
Notes for Serial Connections
* Use the accessory RS-232C cable of S-4000R for connection. If it's necessary to use longer or shorter cable, please purchase RS-232C cable (D-Sub
9pins/male-female/ straight type).
* It is recommended to use a cable of 15 meters or shorter.
* Connect S-4000R or computer to S-MADI, not to Digital Snake.
You can connect a dedicated remote controller (S-4000R) for digital snake to the REMOTE connector on the S-MADI. The REMOTE
indicator on the front panel lights up while S-MADI is receiving remote control from the S-4000R.
Connecting an S-4000R to the S-MADI lets you perform the following operations on the digital snake.
Adjusting preamp gain
Turning phantom power on and off
Turning pads on and off
* The S-4000R supports remote control up to 40 channels.
* For information on the how to carry out remote control from the S-4000R, refer to the owner’s manuals for the respective digital snake products.

You can connect a computer installed with dedicated remote-control software (S-4000 RCS) to the REMOTE connector on the S-
MADI. The REMOTE indicator on the front panel lights up while S-MADI is receiving remote control from S-4000 RCS.
Connecting a computer installed with S-4000 RCS to the S-MADI lets you accomplish much the same operations as with a
connected S-4000R unit. Using S-4000 RCS also provides the following advantages.
You can view a list of the input levels on all channels.
You can view a list of parameter settings (phantom power, pad, etc.) on all channels.
You can save and recall up to 100 settings.
If the computer has multiple RS-232C ports, you can control up to four systems.
You can make settings of M-48 live personal mixer.
