Precautions for rackmounting
This device is guaranteed to operate at an ambient temperature
of 0 to 40 °C. If this device is mounted in an EIA rack together
with other devices, heat from the various devices may cause the
temperature inside the rack to rise, rendering this device unable
to perform to its full potential. To ensure that heat does not
accumulate inside this device, please ensure that the following
conditions are met when rack-mounting it.
• If you plan to mount this device together with devices that
tend to generate heat, such as power amps other than XMV
series products, allow 1U or more of vacant space between
this device and other devices. Also attach ventilation panels
in this space or leave them open to ensure sufficient ventilation.
• Leave the back of the rack open, and allow at least 10 cm of
space between the rack and the wall or ceiling to ensure sufficient ventilation. If the back of the rack cannot be left open,
provide forced air cooling for the rack, for example by
installing a commercially available fan kit. If you install a
fan kit, leaving the back of the rack closed may provide more
effective cooling. For details, refer to the owner’s manual
provided with the rack or fan kit.

together allowing you to set the UNIT ID to one of 63 possibilities in the range of 01 to 3F.
NOTE
• Do not use a UNIT ID of “00” (DIP switches 1 and 2 OFF
and the rotary switch at 0).
• You’ll need to restart the device after changing the setting
of the [UNIT ID] rotary switch.
u DIP switches
These switches enable you to specify the settings related to
the startup operation of the unit.
NOTE
r [GPI] connector
This Euroblock connector allows input and output of control
signals via GPI (General Purpose Interface).
The MTX5-D provides sixteen ports of analog/digital input,
one port of digital input, and eight ports of output. The [IN]1–15 terminals detect voltage changes from 0V to 5V. The
[IN]-16 terminal alone supports +24V input; voltages in the
range of 2.5–24V are detected as High, and voltages below
2.5V are detected as Low. The [OUT]-1–8 terminals are
open collector outputs; they will change between open or
closed (Ground). The +5VDC terminals has an output voltage of 5V. Use the included Euroblock plugs to make connections (see “Euroblock plug connection” on page 13 for
details).
For details on connections and usage, refer to “Connecting
via the [GPI] connector” on page 21.
Set the DIP switches while the power to the unit is turned
OFF. Otherwise, the setting will not be effective.
Refer to the following for details.

Controls and Connectors
Switches 1–2 (UNIT ID)
These switches specify the upper digit and the abovementioned [UNIT ID] rotary switch specifies the lower
digit, together allowing you to specify one of 63 different
UNIT ID numbers in a range from 01 to 3F.
Switch position
Option Functions
UNIT ID is
“0x”
UNIT ID is
“1x”
UNIT ID is
“2x”

The [UNIT ID] rotary switch
will have a setting range of
01 through 0F.
The [UNIT ID] rotary switch
will have a setting range of
10 through 1F.
The [UNIT ID] rotary switch
will have a setting range of
20 through 2F.
The [UNIT ID] rotary switch
will have a setting range of
30 through 3F.
NOTE
Do not use a UNIT ID of “00” (DIP switches 1 and 2 OFF
and the rotary switch at 0).
Switch 3
Not used. Turn it off (up) at any time.
Switch 4 (SECONDARY PORT)
This switch setting determines whether the rear-panel
Dante [SECONDARY] connector will be used for a daisy
chain or redundant network.
With the [DAISY CHAIN] setting, you can connect multiple Dante-enabled network devices in a daisy chain
without using a network switch. Refer to “Daisy chain
network” in the “About connections” section (see page
15) for more information about daisy chain connections.
With the Dante [REDUNDANT] setting, the Dante [PRIMARY] connector will be used for primary connections,
and the Dante [SECONDARY] connector will be used for
secondary (backup) connections. If the unit is unable to
transmit signals through the Dante [PRIMARY] connector for some reason (e.g., due to damage or accidental
removal of the cable, or a failed network switch), the
Dante [SECONDARY] connector will automatically take
over communications and functions on the redundant network. Refer to “About redundant networks” in the
“About connections” section (see page 15) for more
information on redundant networks.

daisy chain connection. It
can be connected in a daisy
chain by connecting to
Dante [PRIMARY] connector of the next device.
The Dante [SECONDARY]
connector is used for a
redundant network. It will
function as backup connection, independent of the network to which the Dante
[PRIMARY] connector is
connected.
Switch 5 (PANEL LOCK)
This switch locks the front panel controls. Use this if you
want to prevent accidental operation from the front panel.

specified according to the
UNIT ID, and will be
192.168.0.(UNIT ID).
The IP address will be
determined by the settings
of MTX Editor. (See “MTX
Editor User’s Manual.”)
NOTE
You must set this to the “UNIT ID” position the first time
you connect this device to a computer after purchase. If
you subsequently want to specify the IP address instead
of using the UNIT ID, specify the IP address from MTX
Editor and then switch this setting to the “PC” position.
Switches 7–8 (START UP MODE)
These specify whether the MTX5-D will be initialized
when it is powered-on.

returning it to the factory-set
state (page 22).
i [DCP] connector
Use this connector to daisy-chain separately sold control
panels such as the DCP1V4S to control the MTX5-D. Use a
CAT5e or better Ethernet straight cable that has all eight pins
connected.
Up to eight control panels can be connected to one MTX5-D.
The total length of the cables from the MTX5-D to the last
control panel must not exceed 200 meters.
CAUTION
• Do not connect a control panel to any connector
other than the MTX5-D’s [DCP] connector. Since the
control panel is not electrically compatible, such connections may cause fire or malfunction.
• Never connect any device to the [DCP] connector
other than the separately sold DCP or other control
panel. Doing so may damage the other device or this
device.
