3.6.1. Inrush current limiter
A mains inrush current limiter provides a "soft start" and enables several
D12s to be powered up at the same time without overloading the mains
power supply. The maximum current drawn during the power up phase
is dependant on the mains voltage, however nominal values are 5 A at
230 V and 10 A at 115 V and 100 V.
3.7. Fan
A level and temperature controlled fan is incorporated for cooling the
internal components, which allows greater cooling during louder
program material. The fan speed is consequently reduced during quieter
passages preventing background noise interference.
If the D12 heats up a "Temp. Warning" is given out and the fan will give
full cooling power permanently.
For further information please refer to section 6.1. Installation on page
23.
3.8. Remote control
The REMOTE sockets can be used with the dbCAN (CAN-Bus) interface
or d&b Remote Interface Bridge (RIB) integrate the D12 into a control
and monitoring system.
Note:
A detailed description of remote control via dbCAN (CAN-Bus) is given
in the technical information TI-312 (d&b code D5312.E.).
A detailed description of remote control via RIB is given in the technical
information TI-310 (d&b code D5310.E.).
