qGround screw

The supplied power cord has a three-prong plug that will
ground the device when plugged into an appropriately
grounded three-prong type AC mains outlet. In some cases,
you may be able to reduce hum or interference by also con-
necting this screw to ground.

wAC IN connector

Use the included power cord to supply power to this connec-
tor. First, connect the power cord to this device, and then
insert the power cord plug into the AC outlet.

e[UNIT ID] rotary switch

This switch specifies the ID by which EXi8/EXo8 units are
individually distinguished in the MTX system network. You
must specify the ID avoiding duplicates among the MTX
series, XMV series and the EXi8/EXo8 within the same net-
work.
DIP switches 1 and 2 described in r specify the upper digit,
and this rotary switch specifies the lower digit, together
allowing you to set the UNIT ID to one of 63 possibilities in
the range of 01 to 3F.

rDIP switches

These switches enable you to specify the settings related to
the startup operation of the EXi8/EXo8.
Refer to the following for details.
Switches 1–2 (UNIT ID)
These switches specify the upper digit and the above-
mentioned [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 3
This switch is for future expansion. Set this to its upward
position.
Switches 4–5 (REMOTE)
Settings of these switches are not necessary. Set these to
their upward position.

NOTE
The EXi8/EXo8 has some connectors that are shaped identically
but have a completely different function (e.g., NETWORK connec-
tor, [YDIF] connector). Make the appropriate connections as
instructed by the explanation for each connector. Otherwise, you
risk damaging your equipment.
NOTE
• Do not use a UNIT ID of “00” (DIP switches 1 and 2
upward and the rotary switch at 0).
•You’ll need to restart the device after changing the setting
of the [UNIT ID] rotary switch.
NOTE
Set the DIP switches while the power to the unit is turned
OFF. Otherwise, the setting will not be effective.
