3 – Preparations
Connecting to an HS-8
Use the included cable to connect the REMOTE connector
on the rear panel of this unit with the HS-8’s REMOTE
connector.
CAUTION
The REMOTE connector is not an Ethernet (LAN) connector.
•
Never connect a cable that is connected to a network to
this unit or an HS-8.
Always turn the HS-8 unit power OFF before connecting
•
or disconnecting a cable. Connecting a cable while the
power is ON could cause damage.
Using a commercially-available
cable
Under ordinary circumstances, use the dedicated
connection cable (5 m) that is included with the unit.
If the included dedicated cable is not long enough or
there is some other problem, use a commercially-available
category 6 LAN cable with straight wiring. When doing so,
however, make certain that the cable meets the following
requirements.
Always use a shielded cable.
•
The maximum cable length is 10 m.
•
Depending on the quality and length of the cable being
used, static might appear on the color display or noise
might be heard when monitoring. If this occurs, attach
ferrite cores to the cable and the HS-8 power cord.
Using the HS-8 SIGNAL GND
terminal
Depending on the operating conditions, flicker might
appear on the color display of this unit or noise might
be heard in the monitoring sound. Should this occur, use
the SIGNAL GND terminal on the rear panel of the HS-8.
(Please prepare a cable to connect to the SIGNAL GND
terminal. No cable is provided with the unit.)
Setting the HS-8
1 Make the following settings to the HS-8 unit as
necessary.
Online function

If the online function is set to Enable, this unit’s
ON LINE key is enabled, and on line playback can
be turned ON (on line playback) or OFF (monitor
playback).
If the on line function is set to Disable, this unit’s ON
LINE key is disabled, and sound is always output from
all the output connectors.
For details about setting the online function, see
