R Remote Version 4.1 User's Guide
Thank you for choosing a Yamaha product.
This user's guide explains setup, firmware update and use of "R Remote," a Windows/Mac application that lets
you make parameter settings for the Rio3224 -D/Rio1608-D/Ri8-D/Ro8-D/RSio64-D/RMio64 -D (subsequently "R
series") and the Tio1608-D units.
This application lets you edit the parameters of up to twenty four devices from a single computer. Even if the
device is not connected, you can mount it virtually and edit its settings beforehand.
Up to two computers in which R Remote is installed can be connected to a single device. This means, for
example, that the main operator could operate a console such as the CL while two assistants make detailed
adjustments at the other locations.

Set on the devices
Set the DIP switches and [UNIT ID] rotary switch of the unit, taking note of the following settings.
UNIT ID
Set a unique UNIT ID that will not conflict with the other device, over a range of 1 to 24 (hexadecimal 18). R
Remote will not detect units with a setting of 0 or 25 or higher. (For details on converting between decimal
and hexadecimal, refer to the " Decimal/hexadecimal conversion table" on page 42)
Set the DIP switches to the following combinations.
UNIT ID ranging from 1 to F
(decimal values 1 to 15)
UNIT ID ranging from 10 to 18
(decimal values 16 to 24)
IP address
Specify the IP address that the R Remote uses for control.
(The IP address set here is different from the IP address of the Dante network.)
For devices other than the Tio1608-D and the RMio64-D
(The IP address will be automatically set to 169.254. xxx.xxx.)
(The IP address assigned by the DHCP server will be used.)
[The IP address will be set to 192.168.0. xxx (xxx = UNIT ID). ]
Static IP (Manual)
(Set the IP address to the value specified on the R Remote)
The first time that you connect an R series unit to your computer, set this to something other than Static IP
(Manual). If you want to use the Static IP ( Manual) setting, first specify the IP address on the R Remote and
then switch to Static IP ( Manual).
If the network consists only of Dante devices and R Remote, we recommend that you use the Auto IP
setting.
If you are connecting to an existing network, select DHCP as needed.
If you want to use zoning to set the IP address, or want to connect to an existing network but use a static IP
address, choose Static IP ( Manual) and use the R Remote to set the IP address.

the gain value fixed by gain compensation is displayed, and subsequent changes to analog gain is
compensated by the compensation gain within the device; audio is transmitted to the Dante network at
the gain value that was fixed immediately before this was enabled.
There are limits to the amount of gain compensation. The maximum compensation is 24 dB when turning the knob
toward the left, and 48 dB when turning the knob toward the right. For example if you apply gain compensation at 30
dB, compensation is maintained until you set the analog gain to 6 dB, but if you set the analog gain to 4 dB, the gain
value that is output will be 28 dB. If in this state you return the setting to 6 dB or higher, compensation maintains the
level at 30 dB.

Updating the Firmware
This guide explains how to update the R series (Rio3224-D, Rio1608-D, Ri8-D, Ro8-D, RSio64-D and RMio64 -
D) and Tio1608-D firmware by using the R Remote (V4.1 or later).
Precautions
Note that the device may be damaged if you fail to follow these instructions properly, or turn off the device
or disconnect the cable while the update is in progress.
Updating – Operation Overview
Verify that your computer meets the updating requirements of the firmware.
(Page 4)
Connect your computer to the device. (Page 32 )
Configure the network settings. (Page 9)
To update the RMio64- D firmware, IPv6 must be enabled on the computer.
Update. (Page 35)
R Remote Version 4.1 User's Guide 32
Connecting the Computer to the Device
Connect your computer directly to the Dante [PRIMARY] connector of the device to update.
Dante firmware cannot be updated if the device has been locked with Dante Device Lock. U nlock it from the
Dante Controller. Although device firmware can be updated even if locked with Dante Device Lock, the old
firmware version before updating is displayed on the Dante Controller and the I/O DEVICE screen of the
CL/QL until the device is unlocked.
This figure is a connection example of the Rio3224-D.
You can perform the update, even when several sets of devices exist on a DANTE Network.
R Remote Version 4.1 User's Guide 33
Network Settings
When setting up, refer to the description in the " Specify the computer's IP address."
If the device is controllable from the R Remote, you can perform the update.
For specific instructions and cautions when connecting the devices, refer to the following web site:
http://www.yamahaproaudio.com/
R Remote Firmware Updater
Each device has two types of firmware. One is for the device and the other is for Dante. Both of firmwares can

If you select the firmware file, all detected devices on the network that correspond to the file are displayed on
the Device information area. Also, until the update is actually started, new detected devices corresponding to
the file are added to the list as needed. Conversely, when a device is missing or disconnected due to the
cable having been unplugged or some other reason, a "disconnected" indication is shown on the Firmware
Version column of the device.
In case of failure in updating the firmware
Even if the update has failed, you can update the firmware again after R Remote detects the device. However,
when a device is turned off while the update is in progress, the device cannot be started up, and it will not be
shown on the Device information area of the R Remote, making it necessary to take the following actions for
each problem .
When the device name is shown in red on the network grid view of the Dante Controller
Dante firmware has entered failsafe mode. Use Failsafe Recovery function of Dante Firmware Update
Manager. The Dante Firmware Update Manager is compressed together with R Remote.
For details on recovering, refer to the Dante Firmware Update Manager User G uide which is
compressed together with R Remote.
