D-5000 / May 2000
CPU & DSP MODULES
CPU Central Processor
(CPU-600 Module)
DSP Digital Processor
(DSP-600 Module)
Overview
Every D-5000 has these two modules; together they per-
form all central signal and control processing for the console.
The CPU-600 is the console’s central controller module; the
DSP-600 is the console’s digital signal processor.
The D-5000 Digital Audio console is provided with a
serial interface port, which is located on the lower DB-25
connector of the CPU-600 module (see connection diagrams
for pin-outs and other details). This serial interface is designed
to provide a number of functions including external control
and set-up, software updates, system interface, etc. Through
this serial interface, the D-5000 control protocol is available,
allowing visibility and control of the console switches, dis-
plays, and other functions. The “Virtual Dip Switch” applica-
tion program (supplied with the D-5000 console) communi-
cates set up information through this serial interface (see
Chapter 9).
There are no user replaceable parts inside (though com-
plete modules may be ordered; see Appendix I).
