4. CONTROL SURFACE PORTS: Each port supplies communication data and power to connected
Livemix personal mixers (also called control surfaces) through a standard network cable.
Two indicator lights on each port report device status
information.
• The green light illuminates when a personal mixer has a
valid connection with the MIX-16/MIX-32.
• The yellow light is a fault indicator. It may illuminate
briey when each personal mixer is powered on. If it
remains lit, this indicates one of the following problems:
1. The rmware on the personal mixer
2. The network cable
3. The port
4. The personal mixer
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 congured
for digital input. The system will default to the option card slot if one is installed. Otherwise, this
can be done on the Livemix personal mixer (see Livemix CS-SOLO or CS-DUO User Guides for
more information).
6. LIVEMIX DATA LIGHT: This light will change color to indicate the audio and power status of the
MIX-16/MIX-32. If the light is off, the MIX-16/MIX-32 doesn’t have power. Any illuminated LED
light color means that power is on.
If using the AD-24 with analog inputs:
• The light will illuminate green when the MIX-16/MIX-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 communication is working. Please verify channel mapping from your
audio source. (See LM-DANTE-EXP User Guide for more information).
• A yellow light means at least one digital channel is not connected properly (See LM-
DANTE-EXP User Guide for more information).
• A red light means that at least one channel is reporting an error (See LM-DANTE-EXP User
Guide for more information).
7. USB PORT: The USB port connects to a Windows PC for rmware updating.
8. LIVEMIX DATA OUT 1: This port connects to a Livemix DA-816 analog output rack unit.
9. LIVEMIX DATA OUT 2 (MIX-32 ONLY): This port connects to a Livemix DA-816 analog output
rack unit. If only using one DA-816, connect to the Livemix Data Out 1.
NOTE:
If power is interrupted to the
MIX-16/MIX-32, the personal
mixer will automatically return
to the last loaded mix when it
powers back on. Additionally, the
MIX-16/MIX-32 will automatically
return to the last loaded Global
Template
