A
INPUT jacks 1–48 / ST IN (stereo input)
jacks 1–4
These are balanced XLR-3-31 type input jacks for
inputting analog audio signals from line level devices
or microphones. The nominal input level is –62 dBu to
+10 dBu. A resettable head amp is provided on all
jacks, and head amp settings can be stored in scene
memory.
B
OMNI OUT jacks 1–24
These are XLR-3-32 (balanced) jacks for outputting
analog audio signals. These are used mainly for output-
ting the MIX/MATRIX/STEREO A/B channel signals.
The nominal output level is +4 dBu.
Note
The nominal output level of OMNI OUT jacks 1–24 is +4 dBu
(maximum level is +24 dBu), but if necessary, this can be
changed to –2 dBu (maximum level +18 dBu) by setting an
internal switch (a fee will be charged). For details, please con-
tact your Yamaha dealer.
C
CASCADE IN/OUT connectors
These are D-sub half-pitch 68-pin female connectors to
allow connection of the DSP5D, PM5D, DCU5D, and
DME64N so that audio signals and control signals can
be transmitted and received.
D
NETWORK connector
This connector allows the DSP5D to be connected to a
Windows computer via a CAT5 Ethernet cable.
This is used mainly when remotely controlling or edit-
ing the DSP5D from the dedicated “DSP5D Editor”
application software.
Note
You should use a CAT5 STP (Shielded Twisted Pair) cable
to prevent electromagnetic interference.
DSP5D Editor and the DME-N Network driver required for
connection with your computer can be downloaded from the
Yamaha website listed below.

E
WORD CLOCK IN/OUT connectors
These are BNC connectors used to input and output
word clock signals from and to an external device. The
input connector is terminated with 75 ohms.
F
CASCADE IN/OUT connectors
These are RJ-45 connectors that can be connected via a
CAT5 Ethernet cable to a DSP5D or DCU5D so that
audio signals and control signals can be transmitted
and received.
Note
As connectors, use RJ-45 connectors that are compatible
with Neutrik’s EtherCon
®
.
As cables, you should use CAT5 STP cables (shielded
twisted pair cables) to prevent electromagnetic interference.
To prevent electromagnetic interference, use conductive
tape etc. to firmly fasten the metal portion of the connector to
the shield of the cable.
These connectors use EtherSound technology, but are only
for use with the PM5D system; they cannot be connected to
other EtherSound equipment. For details on the length of
cables that can be used, refer to the following website.

G
IN/OUT [TX]/[RX] LED
When signals are transmitted (TX) or received (RX) via
the [CASCADE IN]/[CASCADE OUT] connectors, the
corresponding LED will light.
When you use the rear panel mode switch to set the
machine ID, the number of LEDs corresponding to the
machine ID number will light for five seconds
(
p.153).
H
SLOT 1–2
The input/output ports can be expanded by installing
separately sold mini-YGDAI I/O cards in these slots.
I
DC POWER INPUT connector
A separately sold PW800W power supply can be con-
nected here as an external backup power supply. Use a
power supply link cable (PSL360) to make this
connection.
J
POWER LED
This will light if power is being supplied to the DSP5D.
K
POWER switch
This switch turns the power on/off.
L
AC IN connector
Use the included power cable to supply power to this
connector.
M
Grounding screw
For safe operation, be sure that the DSP5D is correctly
grounded. The included power cable has a three-pin
plug, and if the AC outlet is grounded, the DSP5D will
be grounded appropriately. If the AC outlet you’re
using is not grounded, you must be sure to connect
this screw to a valid electrical ground. Correct ground-
ing will effectively eliminate noises such as hum and
interference.
