CASCADE OUT / RAD PORT
This port functions as a CASCADE OUT port when con-
nected to the CASCADE IN port of a Rane AM1 or AM2 (sold
separately). Connect the CASCADE OUT port of an AM2 to
the CASCADE IN port of another automixer, to add it’s Mic
Inputs and all upstream inputs into the automatic gain-sharing
mix of the downstream mixer. When cascaded, the signal on
the CASCADE OUT port is
unaffected
by the gray OUTPUT
LEVEL control.
This port functions as a RAD Port when connected to a
Rane Mongoose (sold separately). The RAD port contains a
Rane-specific digital audio transport protocol allowing audio
delivery to a CobraNet™ digital audio network or another Re-
mote Audio Device via a Rane Mongoose. The audio exiting the
RAD port contains the Main Mix and is
attenuated
by the gray
OUTPUT LEVEL control.
For inquisitive technophiles, RAD Port audio is 24-bit,
48 kHz, fixed-point.

RAD PORT Status indicators are defined below:
AUDIO Tx
LED – lights green when audio is received by a
Mongoose or AM2. If this indicator is off, either the cable is
bad, or there is a communications error between the devices
(see COMM LED below).
AUDIO Rx
LED – lights green when the RAD Port successfully
receives audio from the Mongoose or cascaded AM2. If this
indicator is off, you may have a bad cable, or the device at the
other end of the cable is not powered or connected.
COMM
LED – lights green when communication is established
between the Mongoose or a cascaded AM1 or AM2. This
indicator turns off if the RAD Port cannot communcate with
the other device for some reason – likely due to a faulty cable.
POWER
LED – lights green when the RAD Port is receiving 24
volt power from the Mongoose or cascaded device. This also
indicates that the twisted pair for power within the cable is
wired and crimped properly. If the Power LED is off and the
other end of the cable is plugged into a powered device, there
is a problem with the cable.
