<!-- l. 57 --><p class="noindent">If you are reading this, chances are you have become an unfortunate test subject of the RBUS-ADAT conversion
board (or have the nerves to think about becoming one). Well, here is (almost) everything you will want to know
about the board. If you want to learn about some less useful information about this thing, consider checking out
the devlog, which can be found by following the link to the project homepage listed under “Useful
links”.

low, at least make an attempt to do so.

<!-- l. 105 --><p class="noindent">There’s no enclosure for this board. As a result there would be exposed conductors on both sides of the board.
You’re advised to take measures to prevent them from shorting out. You may try any combination of the
following:
</p>
     <ul class="itemize1">
     <li class="itemize">
     <!-- l. 110 --><p class="noindent">Placing the board on an non-conductive surface.
     </p></li>
     <li class="itemize">
     <!-- l. 111 --><p class="noindent">There are two M2 mounting holes in the board. Using two M2 screws and nuts, install a plastic sheet
     (or cardboard even) under and / or over the board.
                                                                                                  
                                                                                                  
     </p></li>
     <li class="itemize">
     <!-- l. 113 --><p class="noindent">Don’t use the board at all. Don’t even think about it.</p></li></ul>
<!-- l. 116 --><p class="indent">   Again, if you fried your equipment while using this board, it’s all your fault. I mean not really – I would still
want to know what happened. But it’s all your fault.

<!-- l. 124 --><p class="noindent">RBUS-ADAT is designed for use with the Roland XV-5080. It converts the 8 digital outputs exposed by XV-5080’s
R-BUS port to a standard ADAT lightpipe stream which can be recorded with any audio interface with an ADAT
input.
</p><!-- l. 128 --><p class="indent">   The ADAT output from this converter is 20-bit and has the same sampling rate as the input supplied from the
R-BUS port.
</p><!-- l. 131 --><p class="indent">   This converter <span class="ec-qplb-x-x-109">cannot</span>:
</p>
     <ul class="itemize1">
     <li class="itemize">
     <!-- l. 134 --><p class="noindent">Convert ADAT back to R-BUS input. i.e. you can’t record an ADAT stream on a V-Studio through
     R-BUS with this converter.
     </p></li>
     <li class="itemize">
     <!-- l. 136 --><p class="noindent">Serve as a clock source for the connected R-BUS device. You should always select “internal” as the
     clock source for the connected R-BUS device.
     </p></li>
     <li class="itemize">
     <!-- l. 138 --><p class="noindent">Expose the MIDI interface on the R-BUS port.</p></li></ul>
<!-- l. 141 --><p class="indent">   The converter is designed and tested with the XV-5080. In addition, the only audio interface that
has been verified to work is Focusrite Scarlett 18i8 3rd gen. I don’t have the resources to test other
devices.
</p><!-- l. 145 --><p class="indent">   The converter has not been tested against VM- or VS- devices that feature RMDB 2 / R-BUS ports
or MV-8<span class="cmsy-10x-x-109">××× </span>fitted with the MV8-OP1 expansion but may still work as a unidirectional converter
as intended. If you decide to try this converter with these devices, reporting the results would be
appreciated.
</p><!-- l. 151 --><p class="indent">   The converter is not compatible with devices with the older RMDB port.

etc. These cables are usually sold as “DB-25 RS-232 serial cable”. Do NOT use any of the following

</p><!-- l. 249 --><p class="indent">   You’ll find Gerber files in the <span class="obeylines-h"><span class="verb"><span class="ectt-1095">out</span></span></span> directory of the project repository that you can upload to your favorite PCB
production service provider. Or alternatively if you want to tweak the board you can open up the KiCad project
files, which are also found in the project repository.
</p><!-- l. 254 --><p class="indent">   Many PCB manufacturers will add a board identifier to each PCB they make and allow customization of where
this identifier will be placed. The front side silkscreen text “Production ID” is reserved for this purpose. Please refer
to the ordering instructions of your PCB manufacturer for the details. Usually this will involve changing
the text to something specific to that manufacturer and selecting an option before submitting your
order.

<!-- l. 284 --><p class="noindent">Again, I assume if you are assembling the board yourself, you possess the appropriate set of skills. It’s now time for
them to shine. Most components are through hole so it should be easy. If it’s not already obvious, solder the only
SMD chip first.

<!-- l. 291 --><p class="noindent">If you have a 5V power source, it is suggested to test your assembled board first. Supply 5V between the anode of
the D1 and the metal shell of the DB-25 connector (GND). Check if anything pops.
