Connections and setup
This chapter describes examples of expanded systems using the DSP5D, audio input/output con-
nections, and the setup that will be necessary when starting up the PM5D/DSP5D for the first time.
Examples of systems expanded with the DSP5D
In order to use “cascade connections” for expansion, you must first specify the machine ID ( p.153) and make cascade
connection settings ( p.154). If the PM5D and DSP5D are cascade-connected, you’ll be able to select the PM5D/DSP5D
that will be the target of control from the PM5D’s panel ( p.40).
This system expands the number of input channels to
96 monaural + 8 stereo.
To make cascade connections, use a D-sub half-pitch
68-pin cable to connect the CASCADE IN connector to
the OUT connector of each respective PM5D and
DSP5D unit.
The connection between the PM5D located at FoH and
the DSP5D located on the stage is routed through the
DCU5D, via Ethernet CAT5 cable and the CASCADE
IN and OUT connectors.
By using two DSP5D units, the number of input chan-
nels is expanded to 144 monaural + 12 stereo.
To make cascade connections between the PM5D and
DCU5D, use D-sub half-pitch 68-pin cables to con-
nect the CASCADE IN connectors to the OUT
connectors of each respective unit.
Connections between the two DSP5D units are made
using an Ethernet CAT5 cable and a D-sub half-pitch
68-pin cable, each connected from CASCADE IN to
OUT of the two units.
Note
If the PM5D and DSP5D are cascade-connected via the
DCU5D and you’re not synchronizing to an external word
clock being input to the PM5D, you should set the PM5D as
the word clock master and the DSP5D as the slave.
