Head Amp Control
The Ri8-D head amplifiers can be remotely controlled 
from a host device, such as a compatible Yamaha digital 
mixing console. 
Control from an Ri8-D-native 
Device
The Ri8-D head amplifiers can be controlled remotely 
from an Ri8-D-native digital mixing console, such as a CL 
series product.
The connected Ri8-D-native device displays the model 
name and UNIT ID number of the corresponding Ri8-D 
unit to be controlled.
If you plan to connect a device that features Ri8-D-native 
support to monitor and control the head amplifiers, refer to 
the owner’s manual for the corresponding device.
Control from a Device That 
Does Not Feature Ri8-D-Native 
Support
This section explains how to configure the Ri8-D settings 
that are required to control the Ri8-D as AD8HR units 
from a device that does not feature Ri8-D-native support.
For more information, please refer to the “Dante-MY 
16-AUD & R Series HA Remote Control Guide” that is 
downloadable from the website listed below.
NOTE
The following Yamaha non-Ri8-D-native devices enable 
you to control the Ri8-D as AD8HRs. Insert the 
Dante-MY16-AUD card which is a firmware controllable as 
AD8HR into the Mini-YGDAI slot for connection.
M7CL, LS9, DM1000, DM2000, PM5D/DSP5D, 
DME64N/24N
Setting the DIP Switches
While the power to the unit is off, flip DIP switch 5 down 
and DIP switch 6 up.
NOTE
If REMOTE has been set to [AD8HR], START UP MODE 
will be set to [RESUME] regardless of the DIP switch 
setting.
Setting the UNIT ID
Setting the Ri8-D in [AD8HR] will set UNIT ID as virtual 
ID (as AD8HR Device ID).
If you combine Rio3224-D or Rio1608-D or add an 
AD8HR or SB168-ES in the network, make sure that the 
IDs are all unique. 
Set the Ri8-D correctly so that you can control it as 
AD8HRs. In addition, scene recall can be used to recall all 
head amplifier settings at once. Refer to the digital mixing 
console owner’s manual for details on head amplifier 
control.
