mounting
The DA-98HR is fitted with screw holes in the case
which allow you to fit Accuride 200 series guide rails
(20") which also help with removing and replacing
the DA-98HR from and to rack installations.
Accuride strips are fitted as shown below:
Make sure that all screws and bolts are securely tight-
ened before replacing the DA-98HR in the rack.
13.1.2 Remote control units (RC-898,
RC-848 and RC-828)
The RC-828, RC-848 and RC-898 remote control
units can be used with the DA-98HR as well as the
DA-78HR, DA-98, DA-88 and DA-38 DTRS record-
ers. However, note that not all functions of the DA-
98HR can be used with these units.
The RC-898 remote control unit can be rack-
mounted using the RM-8824, or placed on a roll-
around stand (CS-898).
If a longer cable is required, the 10 meter (30 ft.)
