SoundCraft Vi-Series Console Connections
Connections to SoundCraft Vi‑series consoles are the same as other MADI devices, as
shown on previous pages, with the addition of HiQnet
™
(Ethernet) wiring for integrated
Snapshot control.
Vi-Series Console Connection Notes
• The HiQnet port on early Vi1 consoles (serial numbers lower than 30210956) is
only able to drive short cable lengths, with a maximum recommended length 1
meter (3 feet). Therefore, use a network switch positioned close to the rear of the
console to extend the cable length if required with these early Vi1 consoles.
• The HiQnet port on other Vi consoles is capable of driving standard Ethernet
distances of up to 100 meters.
• The HiQnet port uses the same 8P8C modular connector as the Dante
™
ports
available on Vi consoles. Connect to the HiQnet port only.
Connect UAD-2 Live Rack to the HiQnet port
• Macs with Thunderbolt 1 or Thunderbolt 2 ports can be used with additional
adapters. For details, see "Thunderbolt 1 and 2 Mac Wiring" on page 28.
• Interconnect the UAD‑2 Live Rack hardware unit, the Live Rack software host
computer, and the SoundCraft Vi‑series console following the illustrations on the
following pages.
