13. Connector Pinouts
D-Sub
The 25 pin D-sub connector provides all 4 AES inputs and outputs. The actual pinout is defined
by a special coding connector within the ADI-4 DD. To gain access to the coding connector, the
cover has to be removed. The coding connector is attached to a flat ribbon cable, and can be
plugged into three different multipin connectors.

X231 is the factory's default setting, and resides next to the front plate. The other side of the
cable is plugged into X228. The position of X228 is fixed and must not be changed.
