Precautions

• Do not place a container with liquid or small metal objects on top of this unit. Liquid or metal objects inside this unit are a fire and electrical shock hazard.
• Do not allow water to enter this unit or allow the unit to become wet. Fire or electrical shock may result.
• Connect this unit’s power cord only to an AC outlet of the type stated in this Owner’s Manual or as marked on the unit. Failure to do so is a fire and electrical shock hazard.
• Do not scratch, bend, twist, pull, or heat the power cord. A damaged power cord is a fire and electrical shock hazard.
• Do not place heavy objects, including this unit, on top of the power cord. A damaged power cord is a fire and electrical shock hazard. In particular, be careful not to place heavy objects on a power cord covered by a car­pet.
• If you notice any abnormality, such as smoke, odor, or noise, or if a foreign object or liquid gets inside the unit, turn it off immediately. Remove the power cord from the AC outlet. Consult your dealer for repair. Using the unit in this condition is a fire and electrical shock hazard.
• Should this unit/AC adapter/power supply be dropped or the cabinet be damaged, turn the power switch off, remove the power plug from the AC outlet, and contact your dealer. If you continue using the unit without heeding this instruction, fire or electrical shock may result.
• If the power cord is damaged (i.e., cut or a bare wire is exposed), ask your dealer for a replacement. Using the unit with a damaged power cord is a fire and electrical shock hazard.
• Do not remove the unit’s cover. You could receive an electrical shock. If you think internal inspection, maintenance, or repair is necessary, contact your dealer.
• Do not modify the unit. Doing so is a fire and electri­cal shock hazard.
• When rack-mounting the unit, allow enough free space around the unit for normal ventilation. This should be: 10 cm at the sides, 15 cm behind, and 30 cm above.
• For normal ventilation during use, remove the rear of the rack or open a ventilation hole.
• If the airflow is not adequate, the unit will heat up inside and may cause a fire.
• This unit has ventilation holes at the top, bottom, and rear to prevent the internal temperature rising too high. Do not block them. Blocked ventilation holes are a fire hazard.
• Hold the power cord plug when disconnecting it from an AC outlet. Never pull the cord. A damaged power cord is a potential fire and electrical shock hazard.
• Do not touch the power plug with wet hands. Doing so is a potential electrical shock hazard.
• The digital circuits of this unit may induce a slight noise into nearby radios and TVs. If noise occurs, relocate the affected equipment.
• XLR-type connectors are wired as follows: pin 1: ground, pin 2: hot (+), and pin 3: cold (-).
Rack Mounting Caution
If the unit is rack mounted and transported regularly, for example, when on a tour, we recommend that the rear of the unit be supported by fitting a pair metal brackets, one each side. The following drawing pro­vides the information necessary to make such brack­ets. Note that only one bracket is shown here and the bracket for the other side must be bent in the opposite direction.
Thank you for choosing the AO8 analog output box, or the AO8-DA8 analog output unit, specifically
designed for the Yamaha PM1D digital audio mixing system. The AO8 converts digital signal input from
the DSP1D/DSP1D-EX engine (controlled via the CS1D control surface) to analog signals. Up to six AO8s
can be connected to each DSP1D/DSP1D-EX.
Be sure to ask an authorized Yamaha service engineer to install the card and set up the
unit. Never perform installation and setup by yourself.

OUTPUT UNIT ID indicator
This indicator displays the ID number of the OUT­PUT connector of the DSP unit DSP1D/DSP1D-EX connected to the AO8. If an error occurs in the con­nection to the DSP1D, or if the unit does not lock to the wordclock signal, one of the following error indi­cations appears.
Error message
: The AO8 is connected to the INPUT connector of
the DSP1D/DSP1D-EX. Connect the AO8 to the OUTPUT connector.
: A cable is disconnected from the INPUT A, B, or
C connector on the rear panel, or the connection is made incorrectly. If the connection is proper,
replace the cable. : The unit does not lock to the wordclock signal. : The control signal is not being received correctly.

mode operation, the INPUT SELECTOR switch ( 2 ) setting matches the setting controlled from the CS1D and the system is operating normally. If the control signal from the CS1D has changed the setting during Mirror mode operation and it does not match the INPUT SELECTOR switch ( 2 ) setting any more, this indicator changes in the following order.

POWER ON/OFF
Use this switch to turn the power to the AO8 on and off. When the power is turned on, the OUTPUT UNIT ID indicator lights up.
D
INPUT connectors A and B
These connectors are used to input multi-channel dig­ital audio signals from the DSP1D/DSP1D-EX. Use the INPUT SELECTOR switch 2 on the front panel to select an input source (INPUT A or INPUT B). Be sure to use the included genuine Yamaha half-pitch 68-pin cable for connection. Optional genuine Yamaha cables in a variety of lengths are also available.
E
WORD CLOCK IN jack, ON/OFF switch
The WORD CLOCK IN jack is used to provide the word clock to the AO8 from a clock generator or a connected external device. Use a BNC cable with an impedance of 75 The WORD CLOCK ON/OFF switch is used to termi­nate the word clock connection. Basically, if the AO8 is the last device of the word clock chain, or if nothing is connected to the WORD CLOCK IN/OUT jacks, set this switch to ON.
