Radio Design Labs D-RLC10MC Remote Level Control with Muting - Rotary Optical Encoder (Custom Labeled)

Remote Level Control with Muting - Rotary Optical Encoder (Custom Labeled) (See Part , ZCST-LBL for setup charge)

The D SERIES-RLC10M is a rotary remote level control with pushbutton muting that provides user adjustment at single or multiple locations. Optical encoder technology allows continuous knob rotation with a comfortable adjustment rate and long-term trouble-free and noise-free operation. These controls directly connect to any RDL VCA and OEM equipment with 0 to 10 Vdc ramp inputs. , A single &ndash,RLC10M may be connected to a ramp-controlled VCA using a single-pair shielded audio cable or unshielded cable. A rear-panel switch configures the control as the MASTER. The MASTER mode causes this control to drive the 0 to 10 Vdc ramp output and to monitor its pulse terminals in case any other &ndash,RLC10M controls are connected. , As many as nine additional &ndash,RLC10M controls may be wired in parallel with the MASTER control using UTP cable (CAT5, CAT6 or equivalent). The rear-panel MODE switch on each additional remote control is set to SLAVE mode. , Operation is the same for a single control, or for each control connected in a multiple control point installation. The 0 to 10 Vdc ramp voltage is incremented up or down when the front-panel knob is rotated. Acceleration is provided so the rate of change is faster when the knob is rotated more rapidly, yielding a responsive feel and rapid elimination of acoustic feedback. The LED ring display encircling the control knob operates as a virtual pointer. When an &ndash,RLC10M is not being adjusted, its display switches to a dim intensity to avoid being a visual distraction. The display returns to a bright intensity during adjustment. , Upon power-up or re-powering after a power loss, the 0 to 10 Vdc ramp will output either a preset level or the last level used. The power-up mode is stored when the control is installed. When programmed for the preset level mode, the user can store a new preset level by holding the MUTE button for more than 3 seconds.
