8.11.2. Using the Remote Control Module
Note
This method can only be used when the DX-0808 Matrix Unit or DI-1616 Interface Unit is connected to the
DK-1608 Memory Selector. When only the unit is connected to the DK-1608, use the unit's RS-232C
communication port to recall the pattern memory as explained above.
[DQ-C01's connection to the DK-1608]
Install the DQ-C01 Remote Control Module in the unit. Connect the DK-1608's COM terminal to the DQ-C01's
C terminal, and the DK-1608's STATUS terminal to the DQ-C01's 1 – 8 terminals.
Note
It is highly recommended that the DQ-C01 be installed in the Master unit (Unit ID = 1). Doing otherwise could
require an excessively long interval before the pattern memory is recalled from the DK-1608.
[DQ-C01 setting]
The DK-1608's STATUS terminal corresponds to the front panel-mounted selection keys (1 – 8).
The memory number corresponding to each selection key can be set at the DK-1608's rotary switch, however
the DQ-C01 also needs to match this setting. This change can be made by selecting [Option (O) → External
control setting (C)] in the unit's setting software. For details, refer to the accompanying Software Instruction
Manual.
Notes
• The unit's protocol differs from that of the DX-0808 and DI-1616. It is impossible to control both the unit and
the DX-0808 or DI-1616 over the same communication line (RS-232C or RS-485). Therefore, install
separate communication lines for the system consisting of the unit and the DX-0808 or DI-1616. In the
above-noted method of using unit's RS-232C communication port, the communication line of the DX-0808 or
DI-1616 may in some cases be connected to the unit's RS-232C port. However, the only control that can be
performed from this line to the unit is pattern memory recall.
• In a system where the unit and a DX-0808 or DI-1616 are combined, avoid recalling the pattern memory at
the DK-1608 or DX-0808 while a PC is being used to set the unit. Similarly, do not recall the pattern memory
from either the unit or the DK-1608 while a PC is being used to set the DX-0808 or DI-1616.
