4. CONTROL SURFACE PORTS: Each port supplies both power and audio to connected Livemix
personal mixers through a standard network cable.
Two indicator lights on each port report device status
information.
• The green light will illuminate when a CS-DUO has a
valid connection with the MIX-16/32.
• The yellow light is a fault indicator. It may illuminate
briefly when each personal mixer is powered on. If it
remains lit, this indicates a problem with the port, the
network cable or the CS-DUO.
5. OPTION CARD SLOT: This slot is used to provide access to additional input formats. When using
an option card, such as the LM-DANTE-EXP Dante card, the system may need to be configured
for digital input. The system will default to the option card slot if one is installed but this can be
done manually on the CS-DUO (see CS-DUO guide for more information).
6. LIVEMIX DATA LIGHT: This light will change color to indicate the audio and power status of the
MIX-16/32. If the light is off, there is no power to the MIX-16/32. Any illuminated light color
means that power is on to the MIX-16/32.
If using the AD-24 with analog inputs:
• The light will illuminate green when the MIX-16/32 is receiving audio data.
• The light will illuminate red when there is no audio data present.
If using an option card (digital input):
• A green light means there is no “problem” with the audio; this could also mean no
connections have been made (See LM-DANTE-EXP manual for more information).
• A yellow light means at least one digital channel is not connected properly (See LM-
DANTE-EXP manual for more information).
• A red light means that at least one channel is reporting an error (See LM-DANTE-EXP
manual for more information).
7. USB PORT: The USB port connects to a Windows PC or Apple
computer, and allows the computer to record a 2-channel
stereo mix of one of the mixes generated by a CS-DUO.
Common uses for this type of recording include:
• Recording a worship service for a later podcast
• Documenting a band performance
