Tio1608-D2
Connection methods
This section explains the different methods for connecting
the Tio1608-D2 to other Dante devices. To connect to a
non-TF series mixer, refer to the mixer instruction manual.
Quick Config (automatic setup)
When connecting the unit to a TF series mixing console,
Quick Config makes it easy to set up the unit automatically.
It allows you to connect up to three Tio1608-D2 units to one
TF series mixing console, and configures Dante network
settings and audio signal settings in one operation.
Tio1608-D2 procedure
1. With all the units turned off, set the DIP switches on
the rear panel to the up position.
2. Set the [QUICK CONFIG FOR TF] on the front panel
to the [ON] position.
3. Set the [UNIT ID] on the front panel to the desired
position.
If you are using multiple Tio1608-D2 units, make
sure each unit has a unique UNIT ID setting.
4. Use Ethernet cables to connect the Tio1608-D2 to
the NY64-D card (installed in the TF series mixing
console) or to other Tio1608-D2 units in a daisy-
chain configuration, as shown below.
When using Quick Config, the units will operate the same
whether you connect the Ethernet cables to the Dante
[PRIMARY] or [SECONDARY].
When connecting 3 units
5. Turn each device on.
TF series mixing console procedure
6. Display the console's SYSTEM SETUP SLOT SETUP
screen, and confirm that Quick Config is enabled.
Now the TF series mixing console can recognize the
Tio1608-D2 units, and all Dante settings and input and output
patching settings will be configured automatically.
When the Quick Config button is displayed in white, Quick
Config is enabled. If the button is grayed out, click it. If you
cannot enable Quick Config, return to step
1 and confirm that
the Tio1608-D2 is configured properly.
NOTE
•To use Quick Config functionality, activate the Tio1608-D
compatibility mode.
•Tio1608-D2 models can be connected to a mixture of Tio1608-
D2 and older Tio1608-D models.
•An NY64-D audio interface card (sold separately) is required to
connect a Tio1608-D2 to a TF series mixing console.
NOTE
If used in combination with older Tio1608-D models, specify UNIT
ID settings that do not conflict with the Tio1608-D units.
