EAW DX810 instruction manual Front Panel Features, Rear Panel Features, Inputs

FRONT PANEL FEATURES

Note: The front panel controls only apply to the A and B outputs. Outputs C through J are controlled with the DX-810-PC software interface.

INPUT UP/DOWN BUTTONS

Use these buttons to adjust the mix level for each input channel.

INPUT LED DISPLAY

This indicates the signal level after the mic preamp stage, just after the A/D converter, but prior to any digital signal processing. When any input UP/ DOWN button is pressed, all the meters (except EQ) switch from level metering to level setting indication. After five seconds, the meters switch back to normal peak program metering (PPM).

When the 10 and 7 LEDs are both lit, the gain is set to unity (0 dB).

EQ LO/HI UP/DOWN BUTTONS

These buttons are disabled in the DX810 (they are for DX8 use only).

EQ LED DISPLAY

This display is disabled in the DX810 (it is for DX8 use only).

MASTER A/B UP/DOWN BUTTONS

These buttons adjust the output level for the A and B output buses.

MASTER OUTPUT LED DISPLAY

This indicates the signal level after the digital signal processing and MASTER A and B gain stage, just prior to the D/A converter. When any MASTER UP/ DOWN button is pressed, all the meters switch from level metering to level setting indication. After five seconds, the meters switch back to normal peak program metering (PPM).

MODE

This switch changes the front panel operation between Bus A and Bus B operation. In addition, the LOCK position disables the front panel controls to prevent unauthorized changes to the settings. A security code must be entered to enable the front panel controls when the DX810 is locked. See page 13 for more information on locking and unlocking the DX810.

COMM PORT

This is an RS-232 port on a 9-pin D-Sub connector. It connects to a personal computer or other compatible control system for external control of the DX810 settings. A second COMM port on the rear panel duplicates this function, for permanent connection to an installed controller.

POWER

Use the POWER switch to turn the DX810 on and off.
