Remote Connection ([REMOTE] Connector)

The [REMOTE] connector of the DME64N/24N can be connected to remotely-controllable Yamaha AD8HR

or AD824 head amplifiers (pre-amps), digital mixers, or RS-232C compatible controllers (such as those from

AMX or Crestron). The [REMOTE] connector also transmits and receives MIDI messages.

Controlling external head ampliﬁers from the DME64N/24N

You can remotely control the AD8HR or AD824 head amplifier settings from DME Designer. Up to eight

AD8HR/AD824 head amplifiers can be connected.

When connecting an AD8HR or AD824 be sure to set the “Utility” screen “MISC” page (see manual page 49)

“Remote” parameter to “HA Control (RS422)”. Also, do change to any other setting than “HA Control

(RS422)” while the unit is connected. Doing so can damage the unit.

When connecting to a combination of AD8HR and AD824 head amplifiers, be sure to place the AD8HR units

closest to the DME64N/24N in the chain, otherwise the AD8HR or AD824 unit(s) may not be properly rec-

ognized by the DME64N/24N.
