Connecting the MADI cable
The MADI port (optional MADI Module) can be connected using either Optical or coaxial cabling.
When using Optical cabling, first ensure that you have a clean work area, as
dust and debris can affect the connection if any obstruction is present.
Remove the cap on both the cable and the port and slowly / firmly push the
cable into the receiving port on the Hapi unit until it clicks into place.
The MADI optical connector is available in Multimode or Single mode
versions.
The Hapi is delivered with Multimode connectors unless specified at ordering.
When Using a Coaxial connector. Slowly bring the Male cable up to the female
port, ensuring that the pin in the centre of the male cable lines up with the
receptacle in the female port. Push the connector firmly into place and twist
the sleeve clockwise until it clicks into its locked position.
Maximum recommended cable length is 100 meters
Connecting the Wordclock input/output
The Wordclock connections on the rear of the Hapi unit are coaxial BNC’s. To
connect a ordclock source from an external device slowly bring the Male
cable up to the female port, ensuring that the pin in the centre of the male
cable lines up with the receptacle in the female port. Push the connector
firmly into place and twist the sleeve clockwise until it clicks into its locked
position.
Connecting the Sync Cable
The Sync Cable (optional with each Hapi unit) is a DB15 cable that connects to the “SYNC” port on the
rear of the Hapi unit. The SYNC cable provides connectivity for MIDI, LTC and Video Reference Input
and Output for the Hapi unit. To attach this cable to the Hapi unit, align the male connector with the
female DSUB port on the module. Then, with slight pressure, guide the connector into place. Once the
cable has been pushed into place, fasten the mounting screws on either side finger-tight.
