Allen&Heath iDR-In - Manual

iDR-in/out User Guide AP4774 1
iDR-in and iDR-out are add-on audio expander units for the Allen & Heath iDR-4 and iDR-8 audio mix processors.
They provide additional analogue audio inputs and outputs to add to those on the main unit. The iDR-in has 8 mic/line
inputs, the iDR-out has 8 line outputs. One or both may be connected to the iDR. Only one of each may be added to
the iDR system bringing it up to a maximum 16x16 audio matrix. These units do not have any processing built in. They
simply convert between analogue and digital audio to work with an 8 channel wide digital bus which feeds the main
unit via a CAT5 STP cable. The iDR-in features high grade mic/line preamps with PC configured gain, pad and
phantom power switching, and a built-in soft clip limiter. The iDR-out provides electronically balanced differential
outputs. The processing is available on the main iDR-4 or iDR-8 unit which features the full 16x16 DSP matrix. Both
units have 8 front panel LEDs in addition to the 3 status indicators. These are 3-colour soft LEDs which can be
assigned as audio meters, mute indicators or patch related indicators. They are programmed in the usual way using
the iDR System Manager software. Control of the expanders is via the DR-Link port using a CAT5 STP cable. This
means that two CAT5 cables are required to interconnect an expander to the main unit. Maximum distance between
the units is 250 metres. Local mains power is required.
This product complies with the European Electromagnetic
Compatibility directives 89/336/EEC & 92/31/EEC and the
European Low Voltage Directives 73/23/EEC & 93/68/EEC.
NOTE: Do not remove the cover of the unit. There are no user serviceable
parts inside. Any changes or modifications to the equipment not approved by
Allen & Heath could void the compliance of the equipment and therefore the
users authority to operate it.
