IDR D-in/out User Guide AP6636
The iDR D-in and iDR D-out expanders can be rack mounted or free standing. There are
no user controls on the front panel, only the status and assignable LEDs. Allow a minimum
of 75mm clearance behind the unit for the connectors and cables. Ensure adequate
ventilation to the side of and behind the unit.
The units are shipped with their rack ears fitted and feet removed ready to be mounted in a
standard 19” equipment rack. 1U rack space is required. For desk mount operation
remove the two rack ears using a Torx (star head) T10 screwdriver. Fit the four plastic feet
provided by pressing them into the underside.
Make sure you have read the Important Safety
Instructions provided. Also check that your local mains
supply is compatible with that printed on the rear panel of
the unit. Ensure that the correct mains lead with moulded
plug and IEC connector has been supplied. For your own
safety and optimum performance make sure the system is
correctly grounded.
To avoid any unexpected audible clicks or thumps
always turn connected power amplifiers down or off before
switching the iDR or any other signal equipment on or off.
Turning the expander on or off
First make sure
the unit is correctly plugged up and connected to the iDR-4(8).
This is described below. Turn the unit on by pressing the rear
panel power ON/OFF switch. The power LED lights up. The
link LED lights if the DR-Link connection is established with the
iDR-4(8). The lock LED lights once the link is established and
audio is correctly communicated with the iDR-4(8). The iDR
System Manager detects the presence of the expander.
If one or more of the LEDs do not light then check that the
cables are correctly fitted and the iDR-4(8) is functioning
normally.
Checking for expanders
You can use the front
panel iDR-4(8) Setup menus to check if any expanders are
connected and recognised. This is useful when the expanders
are located far away from the main unit. With the face plate
removed access menu *8 Diagnostics and scroll to Audio Exp.
Refer to the iDR-4 user guide AP5230 or iDR-8 user guide
