1Mains input Use the IEC lead with moulded mains plug suitable for your local voltage. The protection fuse rating is marked on the rear panel. The on/off switch is positioned on the rear panel to prevent accidental operation.

2Network port RJ45 socket for connection to an Ethernet network or PC using UTP CAT5 cable. This port is recommended for configuring the system with iDR software. The MDI/X switch selects network or direct to PC operation. The link LED lights when communication is established. The TX LED lights when data is communicated.

Note: The RS232, MIDI, SysNet and PL-Anet control ports are not all available at the same time. A combination of two is selected using iDR System Manager. The associated active LED lights when the port is available.

3 RS232 (MODEM) port This is used for connection to a modem so that the unit can be interrogated by a remote PC over a standard telephone line. It can also be used for system configuration using iDR System Manager software but the faster network port is recommended. Pressing the front panel switch selects either the front or rear RS232 port.

4MIDI port Standard opto-isolated MIDI port with IN, THRU and OUT connectors.

5SysNet port An RS232 serial port for communication with third party remote controllers running the Allen & Heath SysNet protocol.

6PL-Anet port An RS485 serial port for communication with a network of Allen & Heath PL wall plates and remote controllers using CAT5 STP cable.

7DR-Link port RJ45 socket for control of iDR audio and logic expander units using CAT5 STP cable. IN and OUT ports are provided on the expander units so that the control can be daisy chained through a system with more than one expander.

8 Audio expander ports RJ45 sockets for communicating 8 channel digital audio between the iDR-8 and its expanders using CAT5 STP cable. Two cables are required between the expander and iDR-8, one for the audio, the other for DR-Link control.

9Mic/Line inputs Balanced XLR inputs for microphone and line level sources. Adding the iDR-inexpands the iDR-8to 16 inputs.

10Audio outputs Balanced XLR line level outputs with maximum +18dBu level. Adding the iDR-outexpands the iDR-8to 16 outputs.

11Monitor inputs and outputs Balanced TRS jacks for L and R monitor inputs and outputs. These provide a line level version of the front panel stereo headphones output and can daisy chain through multiple iDR units.

12Switch closure inputs These are provided on the iDR-switch. They can be hard wired from remote wall plate and controller switches and relays.

13Open collector logic outputs These are provided on the iDR-switch. They can be used to control LEDs, lamps, relays and other devices.

14Earth terminals These are provided to earth (ground) the switch and logic output cable shields.
