A plastic P-clip cable clamp is provided to secure the mains cable. Slot the cable in
or lock it in place using a star Torx T20 screwdriver to refit the clamp around the cable.
Network – 2 RJ45 Gigabit Ethernet ports. Connect a laptop or a wireless
router to use with dLive Editor or iOS apps. All devices on the network must have
compatible IP addresses.
gigaACE link – MixRack to Surface link over Gigabit Ethernet (IEEE 802.3
Layer 2 compliant). A single Cat5e (or higher) cable carries bidirectional 96kHz audio
and control. Use two cables for redundancy – the system will seamlessly switch cable
in case of failures, without any audio dropout.
