to the device or other property. These precautions include, but are not limited to, the following:
Remove the electric plug from the outlet when the device is not to be used for
extended periods of time, or during electrical storms.
When removing the electric plug from the device or an outlet, always hold the
plug itself and not the cord. Pulling by the cord can damage it.
Before moving the device, remove all connected cables.
When setting up the device, make sure that the AC outlet you are using is easily
accessible. If some trouble or malfunction occurs, immediately turn off the
power switch and disconnect the plug from the outlet. Even when the power
switch is turned off, electricity is still flowing to the product all the minimum
level. When you are not using the product for a long time, make sure to unplug
the power cord from the wall AC outlet.
If this device is to be mounted in an EIA-standard rack, leave the back of the rack
open and make sure that it is at least 10 cm away from walls or surfaces. Also, if
this device is to be mounted with devices that tend to generate heat, such as
power amplifiers, be sure to keep an adequate gap between this device and the
heat-generating devices or install ventilation panels to prevent high
temperatures from developing inside this device.
Inadequate ventilation can result in overheating, possibly causing damage to the
device(s), or even fire.
If several of the devices are mounted in an EIA-compliant rack, carefully read the
section “Precautions for Using a Rack-mounted DME Satellite” on page 17
•Avoid setting all equalizer controls and faders to their maximum. Depending on
the condition of the connected devices, doing so may cause feedback and may
damage the speakers.
Do not expose the device to excessive dust or vibrations, or extreme cold or heat
(such as in direct sunlight, near a heater, or in a car during the day) to prevent
the possibility of panel disfiguration or damage to the internal components.
Do not place the device in an unstable position where it might accidentally fall
over.
Do not block the vents. This device has ventilation holes at the rear to prevent
the internal temperature from becoming too high. In particular, do not place the
device on its side or upside down. Inadequate ventilation can result in
overheating, possibly causing damage to the device(s), or even fire.

Before connecting the device to other devices, turn off the power for all devices.
Before turning the power on or off for all devices, set all volume levels to
minimum.
Do not insert your fingers or hands in any gaps or openings on the device.
Condensation can occur in the device due to rapid, drastic changes in ambient
temperature—when the device is moved from one location to another, or air
conditioning is turned on or off, for example. Using the device while
condensation is present can cause damage. If there is reason to believe that
condensation might have occurred, leave the device for several hours without
turning on the power until the condensation has completely dried out.
•Avoid inserting or dropping foreign objects (paper, plastic, metal, etc.) into any
gaps or openings on the device. If this happens, turn off the power immediately
and unplug the power cord from the AC outlet. Then have the device inspected
by qualified Yamaha service personnel.
Do not use the device for a long period of time at a high or uncomfortable
volume level, since this can cause permanent hearing loss. If you experience
any hearing loss or ringing in the ears, consult a physician.
Do not rest your weight on the device or place heavy objects on it, and avoid use
excessive force on the buttons, switches or connectors.
This device has a built-in backup battery that maintains data in internal memory
even when the device’s power is switched off. The backup battery will eventually
become depleted, however, and when that happens the contents of the internal
memory will be lost.* To prevent loss of data be sure to replace the backup
battery before it becomes fully depleted. When the backup battery charge
becomes low, the [ERROR] indicator on the front panel blinks (For details, refer
to “Error Messages” on page 38).
In this case, do not turn off the power and immediately transfer any data you
want to save to a computer or other external storage device, then have qualified
Yamaha service personnel replace the backup battery. The average life of the
internal backup battery is approximately 5 years, depending on operating
conditions.
* Data items maintained in the internal memory by the backup battery are as
follows:
• Current scene parameters and number.
• Device parameters (HA, UTILITY, Master Mute/Level, etc.).
• Event log.
Data items other than those described above are stored in memory that does not
require backup power, and will be retained even if the backup battery fails.
Do not turn the [POWER] switch on and off repeatedly and rapidly. Be sure to wait six seconds or more between turning the power to the unit off and then on.
The rubber feet included in this package can be attached to the speaker to prevent slippage when it is to be used on a slippery surface.
Always turn the power off when the device is not in use.
The performance of components with moving contacts, such as switches, volume controls, and connectors, deteriorates over time. Consult qualified Yamaha service
personnel about replacing defective components.

Audio System Network
Multiple DME series units that are interconnected in a network via Ethernet function as a single audio system.
In a DME audio system, a group of the same models that can be operated in sync is called a “device group;” audio
processing divisions that accommodate multiple device groups are called “zones;” and the entire area serviced by
the acoustic system is called an “area.”
Each device group always includes one DME series unit that functions as the “group master” and controls all other
DME series units in the same device group.
If a computer is connected to the network, you can use the computer to control an entire device group via the
group master.
Glossary for the DME Satellite
This section explains terminology specific to the DME Satellite.
Components and parameters
The individual audio processing modules (equalizers, compressors, etc.) are called “components.”
External head amplifier control modules are also available as components.
Changing the parameters of components enables control over the operation of the components.
Configuration
A “configuration” is a complete set of components for constructing an audio system.
Each configuration determines the audio function(s) of the corresponding DME Satellite unit.
All parameter sets included with each component in a configuration are called “preset parameters.”
One DME Satellite unit has a number of configurations, and a configuration has a number of preset parameters.
User Defined buttons (User Defined parameters)
Assigning parameters to be User Defined parameters enables you to control the device from the ICP1 and the
DME64N/DME24N.
Refer to the “DME Designer Owner’s Manual” for details.

Signal Types
DME Satellite audio system signals can be broadly categorized as follows.
Audio
Analog and digital signals are input and output between the DME Satellite, other DME series units, and other
audio devices. Analog signals are input and output via the [INPUT]/[OUTPUT] jacks. Digital signals are input
and output via the EtherSound jacks.
Control signals within a device group
Device group control signals control all DME series devices in the group.
There are two types of device group control signals, as follows:
Control signals between the computer and the group master DME series unit
Control signals between the group master DME series unit and the other DME series
units
You can use the DME Designer application to control the entire device group, such as sending components to the
devices and setting the parameters as required.
Control signals between devices outside the device group
These signals provide communication and control between individual devices.
Included in this category are MIDI messages transferred between [USB] connectors, GPI signals transferred be-
tween [GPI] connectors, and remote head amp control signals handled via the [REMOTE] connector.

About DME Designer
DME Designer software enables you to integrate, configure, and control the DME series system from a connected
computer.
You can build the DME series audio system using graphic blocks in DME Designer that are displayed on the com-
puter monitor.
The DME series settings, configuration, and parameter data are transferred from the computer to the DME series
unit via the USB or Ethernet connection.
DME series settings, configuration, and parameter data is sent via USB or Ethernet to the connected DME series
unit. After the data is transmitted, you can disconnect the DME series unit from the computer and use it as an
independent processor.
You can also connect it to a computer and control it in realtime from DME Designer.
If multiple DME series units are connected in the network, DME Designer enables you to build a configuration
that includes those units.
Please download the DME Designer application, driver, DME setup manual, and DME Designer owner's manual
at the following URL:

Precautions for Using a
Rack-mounted DME Satellite
If several DME Satellite units (or a DME Satellite unit to-
gether with other devices) are installed in a poorly-ventilated
rack, the heat generated by each unit may raise the tempera-
ture inside the rack, preventing the DME Satellite from per-
forming as designed. When mounting DME Satellite units
in a rack, please leave one rack space vacant for every two
units. You can attach a ventilation panel to this space or leave
it open to prevent excessive heat build-up.
If the temperature inside the rack is expected to rise above 40
degrees Celsius or 104 degrees Fahrenheit (or if the ambient
temperature outside the rack is expected to rise above 30 de-
grees Celsius or 86 Fahrenheit), install a fan kit in the top
row of the rack. The fan must provide airflow of 1.6m
3
/min
or more and static pressure of 5mmH
2
O or more.
NOTE
The communication status of the EtherSound [IN]/[OUT]
jacks is shown by the front panel [TX/RX] indicators.
•Use a STP (Shielded Twisted Pair) cable to prevent
electromagnetic interference.
NOTE
The PAD will be internally switched on or off when the gain of
the DME8i-ES/DME4io-ES internal head amp is adjusted
between –6 dB and –5 dB. Keep in mind that noise may be
generated if there is a difference between the Hot and Cold
output impedance of the external device connected to the
INPUT connector when using phantom power.

USB Connection
To connect multiple DME Satellite units to a network, you must assign appropriate IP addresses and make other
network settings on all units. To achieve this, you need to connect the [USB] connector of one of the DME Sat-
ellite units to the USB port of the computer using USB cables, install USB-MIDI Driver and DME Designer on
the computer, then assign the IP addresses to the DME Satellite units from DME Designer.
USB connections can be used in the following three ways:
(1) Set up the network (e.g., assign a unique IP address to each DME Satellite) from DME Designer.
(2) Control the DME Satellite from DME Designer.
(3) Connect to any individual DME Satellite and control that DME Satellite unit by transmitting MIDI com-
mands from a MIDI sequencer or similar software.
Connecting to a Computer
NOTE
•Refer to the “DME Setup Manual” (PDF file) for details on installing USB-MIDI Driver and DME Designer.
•Make sure that the USB-MIDI Driver’s THRU setting is “OFF.”
•Refer to “Network Settings” on page 19 for more information on assigning IP addresses from DME Designer.
NOTE
The computer on which DME Designer is running can be connected to either the group master or a slave DME series unit.
In this case, set the DME Satellite as the group master.
The correspondence between the MIDI commands to be received/transmitted and the scene parameters can be set up using
DME Designer.
The USB port being used by DME Designer is not available for use by a MIDI sequencer or other application.

Network Settings
Use DME Designer to specify the IP address, master/slave, and master ID settings as follows.
Setting the IP address
Each group of digits between periods in an IP address is called an “octet.” These groups of digits are called “1st
octet,” “2nd octet,” etc., starting from the left-most digit group.
You cannot specify 0, 127, or 223 through 255 for the 1st octet of the network address.
You can specify the following range of values for the 4th octet.
Master : 2-253
Slave : 3-253
Master and slave setting
Each device group must have one master. All other devices in the group are assigned as slave.
The fourth octet of a slave DME Satellite’s master ID must be the same value as the fourth octet of the group
master DME Satellite’s IP address.
NOTE
•Subnet mask is fixed at 255.255.255.0.
The network address of Gateway is the same as that of IP address. The host address of Gateway is automatically set to 254.
Assign each of DME series units a unique IP address so that there are no duplicates. Assigning duplicate IP addresses may
cause serious network problems.
•You cannot make any network settings while using the DME Designer application on-line. To make network settings, first
set DME Designer off-line. Refer to the DME Designer Owner’s Manual for details.
NOTE
When using a DME Satellite together with the DME64N/24N, you must assign the DME Satellite (including the DME8i-C/
DME8o-C/DME4io-C) as the master. If you assign the DM64N/24N as the device group master, you will be unable to
synchronize using DME Designer.

Ethernet Connection ([NETWORK] Connector)
To control the DME Satellite from the computer via Ethernet, use an Ethernet cable to connect the [NET-
WORK] connector on the rear panel of the DME Satellite to the computer, then install DME-N Network Driver.
Two DME Satellite units directly connected via Ethernet
You can connect devices in the same device group directly to each other using Ethernet cables, without connecting
them to a switching hub. If they are DME Satellite units, you can use either crossover cables or straight cables. In
this case, from DME Designer set Link Mode on both units to the same setting. Devices in different subnet (dif-
ferent network address) groups can be connected via a router or layer-3 compliant switching hub.
NOTE
•Refer to the “DME Setup Manual” (PDF file) for details on installing DME-N Network Driver.
•Appropriate IP addresses must first be assigned to all devices connected to an Ethernet network. Connect your computer to
one of the DME Satellite units via USB, then assign the IP addresses from DME Designer (page 18).
HINT
Since the DME Satellite supports Auto MDI/MDI-X, it will automatically detect whether the connected cable is of the
straight type or crossover type, and will configure itself to create the optimal connection. Therefore, you can use either a
straight or crossover cable.
