Page 4: Introduction
Logitek Digital Consoles represent a new concept for broadcast audio consoles. Logitek consoles centralize all audio mixing, routing, and distribution functions to one location in a facility. Once a Logitek system is in place, adding new inputs, outputs, or even new studios is very easy. -

Page 7: Installation
Remora Control Surface for Digital Audio Engine Installation The Remora control surfaces may be surface mounted on a table or cabinet. Connection of the Control Surface is easy and requires only two cables to the Power Supply Module. The connecting cable from the Power Supply to the Control Surface is supplied with a length of 10 feet (3 meters). - Page 8 Logitek in the length you need. Recommended wiring for this connection is Category 5 computer cable. Wiring to the control surface from power supply connects from DB-15 connector on one end (power supply end) to two cables with RJ-45 connectors on the other end.
- Page 9 Remora Control Surface for Digital Audio Engine The Remora Console control surface consists of two pieces, a top and a tray. To access the tray for secure mounting, remove the top by unscrewing the three screws along the back edge of the top panel and three screws along the front edge. Pull up on this edge and slide the panel backwards as it comes loose.

Page 10: Operation
Operation The Remora control surfaces are designed to be very familiar in look and feel to a traditional console yet with the power of the Audio Engine system easily accessible. Training time is much the same as for any other console. Many of the differences are seen in the configuration process and are not obvious to the operator. - Page 11 ON buttons when configuring the Audio Engine. The external controls require momentary closures. These attached functions will follow any change of inputs. Replacement buttons, lens caps and LEDs are available from Logitek. Part numbers are listed in the Appendix. Bus Assign buttons are momentary action and have status indicator LEDs.
- Page 12 The TB button can allow Talkback to individual sources as they are selected on a fader. When an input is selected with a mix-minus configured, pushing this button will direct the Talkback Mic audio source to the mix-minus output as long as the button is pressed.
- Page 13 Remora Control Surface for Digital Audio Engine The TRM Change button allows the adjustment of the relative gain level of the input. If the fader position is at an inconvenient point, adjust the gain up or down using the Select knob. The adjustment range is + and - 10 db.

Page 14: Monitor Controls
LCD display. Monitor Controls Three Monitor controls are provided on the Remora and are labeled HeadPhones, Monitor and Studio. The action of each is the same. A level control is present with each as well as a space on the LCD panel and a Change push button. - Page 15 Using the flexibility of the Logitek console, a solution would be to provide a separate post-processor input to the Audio Engine. This input could be used on the Phones monitor to give the processed feed to air talent without the extra delay.

The other set is labeled Monitor and follows the choice made on the Monitor Control Selector. The meter LEDs are in a four color arrangement as follows: Green...

Page 17: Initial Power-Up
Library area of AEConfig. See the AEConfig manual for more information. Initial Power-Up The Remora will startup with all controls in a neutral position. If the surface is connected to the Audio Engine then the engine will reset all the switches and router assignments to the current values for the Control Surface port. - Page 18 To minimize the chance of program interruptions, use of an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) is recommended for the Audio Engine. The Remora Control Surfaces consume approximately 35 watts of power. Select a UPS size to provide the protection time you...
