Remote ON/OFF
“Remote location” can also refer to a remote source machine that is feeding its audio to
the module in question. A contact closure (which may be sourced by the external machine),
will activate the module’s channel ON and OFF switches.
To turn the module ON and OFF from remote locations make following connections:
REMOTE ON – Momentarily connect Logic RJ-45 Pin 7 (Remote ON) and Digital
Ground (Pin1) to latch the module ON. (User-supplied momentary contact switch required.)
REMOTE OFF – Momentarily connect Logic RJ-45 Pin 6 (Remote OFF) and Digital
Ground (Pin 1) to latch the module OFF. (User-supplied momentary contact switch required.)
External Start
To Start remote source machines using ON/OFF switches make the following connections:
EXTERNAL START – Hook up the remote machine’s “start” control pins to the Logic
RJ-45 connector Pin 2 (Start) and Pin 1 (Digital Ground).
On Air Tally
Lets any programmed channel’s ON switch control an on-air light or other “micro-
phone on” indicator at a remote location. This control function provides a contact closure
between Pin 1 (On Air Tally N.O.) and Pin 2 (On Air Tally Common) of the TALLY RJ-45
whenever the channel is ON.
This signal can be used to control an externally powered tally light that requires a
continuous closure to function. Current should not exceed 2 amps at 30 volts DC.
