DiGiCo SD12
2-36
2.4 DMI - ADC - DAC - AES Cards
The DMI-ADC card provides 16 analogue inputs on 2 x 25 way "D" connectors
The ADC card is a line card only. There is no microphone amplier or phantom power available.
SD12 has no gain control function for these inputs (only digital trim). Maximum input level +22dBu
The DMI-DAC card provides 16 analogue outputs on 2 x 25 way "D" connectors
DAC card is line level only. Maximum output level +22dBu (Digital Full Scale)
DMI-AES cards provide 16 Inputs (8 pairs) and 16 outputs (8 pairs) on 2 x 25 way "D" connectors
All AES inputs are provided with sample rate conversion (SRC) by default.
All AES outputs are synchronised to the mixer system clock.
Multi-Pin Connector Pinouts
The DMI module range use 25 way “D” connectors, Female on the module (Male required on the connecting cable). The pins connec-
tions are as follows.

Pinout and connection notes:
0 = earth/ground or screen/shield nc = not connected + = phase/hot - = antiphase/cold
Analogue connections for input and output are connected in the same way, as shown
Analogue connections for channels 1-8 shown, channels 9-16 follow the same pattern (1 = 9, 2 = 10 etc.)
AES connections are shown as 4 stereo (2 channel) connections, equivalent to channels 1-8
AES connections for stereo connections 1-4 (ch 1-8) shown, connections stereo 5-8 (ch 9-16) follow the same pattern (1 = 5, 2 = 6 etc.)
