DriveRackIntroduction

In addition to the amazing menu of processors available, the 260 also affords you the luxury of utilizing dbx Zone-Controller series wall-mounted control panels that will allow you to remote- ly control various parameters of the 260. The ZC-1 offers remote programmable Volume con- trol to any installation using the DriveRack™ 260. The ZC-2 provides programmable Volume and Mute control. Both the ZC-1 and ZC-2 can be programmed for up to six outputs of the DriveRack™ 260. The ZC-3 allows Program Selection on the 260. The ZC-4 also offers Program Selection via Contact Closure inputs for Room Combining applications. Up to six Zone Controllers can be used with a single DriveRack™ 260, and can either be wired in series or par- allel. The ZC-BOB was created to accommodate “home-run” or parallel wiring to the unit. With a maximum length of 5,000 ft., the Zone Controllers offer a simple way to create a simple yet elegant solution to many installation applications.
