2.1 DMI Cards
The Digico SD12 has two option slots on its rear panel for the installation of DMI cards (see below)
These cards come in a variety of I/O types.
2.1.2 Fitting DMI Cards ....................................................................
Note: DMI cards are NOT hot swappable and therefore they should NEVER be tted or removed from the SD12 while
the console is powered on.
To t a DMI card:
1) Remove the four screws from the console blanking plate and this will expose a hole in the rear panel with an internal connector and a
white slider on each side of the hole. Keep the four screws safe in order to secure the card in place.

Card fits in slider grooves
Note: Before tting the DMI card, carefully examine the internal connector as in some cases this may have a protective
cover that must be removed before tting the card. If the cover is present, please remove it before proceeding
Note: With MADI DMI C there are 2 internal switches that must be set to the A position for use in the SD12.
Please check these switch positions (as picture below) before tting the card.

2) Carefully slide the DMI card in the hole using the while slider grooves as a guide and then ensure that it pushes into the internal con-
nector correctly with a click.
3) Replace the 4 tting screws.
