⑤ Intake vent
Air is taken in through this vent. Be sure not to block the intake vent with any objects.

⑥ AC IN (power supply input) connector
Connect the provided power cord. Connect the power cord here, then insert the power plug into an AC outlet.

⑦ Exhaust vent
The DME is equipped with a cooling fan. Air is exhausted through this vent. Be sure not to block the exhaust vent with any objects.

⑧ [GPI] connectors
These are Euroblock connectors for GPI (General Purpose Interface), which input and output control signals. With GPI inputs and outputs, the DME can be remotely controlled from custom-made controllers or external devices.
The DME5 has 15 analog/digital input terminals, 1 digital input terminal, and 8 output terminals, while the DME3 has 7 analog/digital input terminals, 1 digital input terminal, and 4 output terminals.

The DME5’s [IN] connectors 1 to 15 and the DME3’s [IN] connectors 1 to 7 detect voltages between 0 and 5 V.
The DME5 [IN] connector 16 and the DME3 [IN] connector 8 support +24 V input, detecting voltages between 2.5 and 24 V as High and voltages below 2.5 V as Low. The [OUT] connectors are open collector outputs that switch between open and ground. The output voltage of the +5 VDC terminal is 5 V.

Use the included Euroblock connectors to connect to the GPI connectors. For connection instructions, refer to "Connecting a Euroblock plug." For the detailed specifications and connection method, refer to "Connecting to a [GPI] port."

Use ProVisionaire Design to set up GPI. Refer to the "ProVisionaire Design User Guide" for setup instructions.

⑨ [USB TO HOST] connector
This is a USB Type-C (USB 2.0) connector. By connecting it to a computer, you can use this product as an audio interface or for audio input and output during web conferences. The DME supports only USB audio sampling frequencies of 48 kHz.

⑩ [USB TO DEVICE] connector
This is a USB Type-C (USB 2.0) connector. Use this connector to connect a USB Type-C (USB 2.0) drive.
You can also play MP3/WAV files stored on a USB drive. For details, refer to "Precautions When Using the USB TO DEVICE connector" in the Appendix.

⑪ Dante [PRIMARY]/[SECONDARY] connectors
These connectors are used to connect to the Dante audio network. By setting the mode, you can also create a daisy chain of connected Dante devices, or superimpose control signals. For details on network specifications, refer to "Network."

⑫ [ISOLATED] connector
This connector is used to communicate with external networks (support will be provided in a future update).

⑬ NETWORK connector
This connector is for control communications with external devices. It enables communication with a computer or other external controllers (AMX, Crestron, etc.). For details on network specifications, refer to "Network."

⑭ [INPUT]/[OUTPUT] connectors
Both DME5 and DME3 feature 8-IN, 4-OUT, and 4-FLEXIBLE I/ O connectors. The FLEXIBLE I/O can conveniently be switched between INPUT and OUTPUT. They are set to INPUT when shipped from the factory. Use ProVisionaire Design to set up. Each [INPUT] and [FLEXIBLE I/O] connector features a built-in head amplifier and can also supply +48 V phantom power. Use ProVisionaire Design to switch the FLEXIBLE I/O between input and output, or turn phantom power on or off. Refer to the "ProVisionaire Design Component Guide". for setting instructions.
Use the included Euroblock connectors for connections.
