If these are old style expansion boards (plugged on the internal ADAT 
connectors, I think these are the same as those for the old rme series) 
it should work without any change, you just have to check the AEB 
checkbox in the latest hdspconf (or use amixer to set the corresponding 
ctl accordingly). I only know of newer extension boards for the H9632 
series. These are also supposed to be supported, but it is untested yet.
