IDR-in/out User Guide AP4774

The iDR-in and iDR-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.

It is shipped with its rack ears fitted and its 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 printed earlier. 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
AP4530 for further details.
