Introduction Thank you for choosing the Yamaha RMio64-D audio interface. To take full advantage of the superior functions and performance offered by the RMio64-D, and to enjoy years of trouble-free use, be sure to read this owner's manual carefully before operation. Features The RMio64-D is a digital interface that lets you transfer up to 64 digital inputs and 64 digital outputs between a Dante network and a MADI-compatible device. By connecting both Dante and MADI, this product can be used for wide variety of applications such as broadcasting, live recording, and post production. In addition, full control of this unit's settings has been achieved through tight integration with Yamaha's Dante compatible devices. • Supports redundancy for both Dante and MADI, and provides a high level of reliability. • Sampling rate converter (SRC) in MADI inputs and outputs. • Signals can be looped back from MADI optical to coaxial, or from coaxial to optical (MADI split). • Enhanced linkage functionality with Steinberg Nuendo, such as direct monitoring and high-precision clock sync with Nuendo SyncStation. Precautions for Rack Mounting This unit is rated for operation at ambient temperatures ranging from 0 to 40 degrees Celsius. When mounting the unit with other RMio unit(s) or other device(s) in an EIA standard equipment rack, internal temperatures can exceed the specified upper limit, resulting in impaired performance or failure. When rack mounting the unit, always observe the following requirements to avoid heat buildup: • When mounting the unit in a rack with devices such as power amplifiers that generate a significant amount of heat, leave more than 1U of space between the RMio and other equipment. Also either leave the open spaces uncovered or install appropriate ventilating panels to minimize the possibility of heat buildup. • To ensure sufficient airflow, leave the rear of the rack open and position it at least 10 centimeters from walls or other surfaces. If you've installed a fan kit, there may be cases in which closing the rear of the rack will produce a greater cooling effect. Refer to the rack and/or fan unit manual for details. Firmware Updates This product enables you to update the unit firmware to improve operations, add functions, and correct possible malfunctions. The following two types of firmware are available for the unit: • Unit's firmware • Dante module firmware You must update each type of firmware separately. Details on updating the firmware are available on the following website: http://www.yamahaproaudio.com/ For information on updating the unit, refer to the firmware update guide available on the website. NOTE It is necessary to update multiple devices depending on the version of each device in the Dante network. For details, refer to the firmware compatibility available on the website. http://www.yamahaproaudio.com/ Conventions in this Manual Screen Shots The example screen shots shown in this manual are from the Windows version, while those for Steinberg Nuendo are from Nuendo 6.5.
