Mackie Serial9 Installation Guide - Page 4

Making the Connections Specifications MIDI Connection The MIDI connection on the Serial•9 card is the same as the MIDI connection on the MIDI card it is replacing. Simply connect the supplied MIDI breakout cable to the bottom 9-pin connector on the Serial•9 card, and connect the 5-pin MIDI IN and MIDI OUT connectors to your MIDI interface. Serial 9-Pin Connection The Serial 9-Pin connection on the Serial•9 card is an RS-422 port that supports the Sony® 9-Pin device protocol. Connect the upper 9-pin connector to any industry standard Sony 9-Pin controller or device using a DB9 male to DB9 male serial computer cable (available at most computer supply outlets). Note: Make sure your Sony 9-Pin controller or device accepts a male DB9 connector. The Serial•9 card is shipped configured to operate as a device (DEV); that is, to connect to a controller and be controlled. This is indicated by the green LED on the Serial•9 card. It is possible to configure the Serial•9 to be the controller (CONT), to control another device. Simply move the five jumpers (JP1-JP5) on the Serial•9 card as shown in the illustration below to configure the card as a controller. This is indicated by the red LED on the Serial •9 card. Note: HDR24/96 software version 1.3 supports only device (DEV) protocol for the Serial•9. Please refer to the Software Release Notes, which can be found on Mackie website's HDR24/96 software downloads page, for complete information on the support of Serial•9 for all software versions.
