RIO

• Analog Audio Input (RIO-A only)

Balanced stereo audio input is provided @ 0dBV line level on a 6 way connector:

Balanced audio right channel +
Balanced audio right channel - (tie to ground for unbalanced)
Signal ground

Balanced audio left channel +
Balanced audio left channel - (tie to ground for unbalanced)
Signal ground

The audio input can also accept linear time code (LTC) such as SMPTE/EBU on either
channel but not both, configured using Designer. The Audio / LTC LED will indicate peak
for audio and valid for time code.

• DALI (RIO D only)

A DALI bus interface is provided on a 3 way connector:

DALI bus (polarity insensitive)
DALI bus (polarity insensitive)
Chassis ground (for optional shield)

The interface can be configured using Designer as either a Master for controlling up to 64
DALI ballasts or a Slave for triggering by third-party controllers using the DALI protocol.
The DALI data LED will indicate valid data on the bus.

• Ethernet

A standard 10/100TX Ethernet connection must be made to the RIO. A Power-over-
Ethernet (PoE) switch or midspan injector is required to operate the RIO. The LEDs on
the RJ45 jack itself are useful for debugging the Ethernet installation:

The Lnk LED will illuminate when an Ethernet link has been established.

The Dat LED will illuminate to indicate Ethernet traffic (not just Mosaic-relevant).

NOTE:

The DALI bus requires a dedicated DALI bus power supply to function, the

DALI power LED will illuminate solidly to indicate suitable (9-26V) power.
The LED will be off for no power or flash to indicate out of range power.

NOTE:

Ports and third party equipment can be damaged when plugging or

unplugging an energised system (hot-plugging). It is therefore advisable to
remove power before making or breaking port connections.
