Connections and Setting Up
This chapter explains how to set up the XMV to input analog 
signals.
If you are using the XMV along with the MTX, refer to the 
“MTX Setup Manual.” Refer to this manual for details regard-
ing the following items, even if you are using the XMV along 
with the MTX.
• Making settings for speaker output
• Connecting the speaker output connectors
• Making high pass filter (HPF) settings
• Lowering the brightness of the indicators and the display
• Locking the panel
Here we will make and verify the input/output settings as out-
lined below.
Rack-mounting the Unit
Checking the Device Setup DIP Switch Set-
tings
Make sure that all of the rear panel’s device setup DIP 
switches (page 13) are in the upward position.
Connecting the Analog Inputs (Euroblock)
Connect the analog outputs of your mixer or other device to 
the analog input connectors (page 15).
You must use the supplied Euroblock plugs with tabs.
If these have been lost, please contact your Yamaha dealer.

CAUTION
Steps earlier than “Turning the Power On” must be per-
formed with the power off. If you perform these steps with 
the power on, the settings might not be applied, or you 
might be subject to electrical shock if you touch the con-
nectors.

Cable preparation
• To prepare the cable for attachment to a Euroblock 
connector, strip the wire as shown in the illustration 
using stranded wire to make connections. With a 
Euroblock connection, stranded wires may be prone 
to breakage because of metal fatigue due to the 
weight of the cable or due to vibration. Bundle the 
cables and the Euroblock tabs using the supplied 
cable ties (page 17). When rackmounting your 
equipment, use a lacing bar when possible to bun-
dle and fasten the cables.
• If cables will be frequently connected and discon-
nected, as in the case of a portable installation, we 
recommend that you use ferrules with insulation 
sleeves. Use a ferrule whose conductor portion has 
an external diameter of 1.6 mm or less, and a length 
of approximately 7 mm (such as the AI0,5-6WH 
made by the Phoenix Contact corporation).
