Provides access to control and status signals. See Chapter 3 for pin assignments and functions. This is the only operator interface to the EQ-77 – there are no local controls. Energetiq offers the EQ-99-RC Remote Control Module which connects to the Input/Output connector of the EQ-77 or EQ-99 and provides a means of local control.
Power Input Connector This is an IEC 320 inlet connector for AC power input. See Chapter 3 for detailed information. Lamp House Control Connector (21-pin mixed D-sub) Provides various power and control signals to/from the Lamp House module. No other connector or cable may be used with the EQ-77 other than the one supplied.
