Control Port

system’s ground connection that contaminates the signals.

If you are using multiple video displays, you may wish to disconnect the auxiliary displays when critically viewing the main display. Please note that turning the auxiliary displays into Standby mode is not helpful in this regard, as the switching power supplies are still operating even when the video display is in “Standby” mode. Instead you must either disconnect the AC power completely from the auxiliary displays or disconnect the signal cables joining the auxiliary displays to your system.

Control Port

The Control Port on the rear panel of the DX-7 allows the unit to communicate with a system controller such as a Crestron or AMX. The Control Port uses opto-isolators to ensure that there are no unwanted ground loops created when using a system controller.

Pre-terminated cables, command files, and detailed information regarding the Control Port are available upon request from the Ayre factory.

There are two separate functions performed by the Control Port; reception of commands and transmission of the currently playing DVD’s aspect ratio.
