Ir (Infrared) Port; Usb Port; Headphone Volume Adjustment; Channel Selector Buttons - Lectrosonics Dante DSQD/AES3 Instruction Manual

IR (infrared) Port

Frequency and settings can be transferred to and from
the DSQD receiver via this port to an IR enabled trans-
mitter to simplify setup.

USB Port

For firmware updates and connection to Wireless De-
signer software.
Reset Button
For MCU recovery in the event of an interrupted firmware
update.

Headphone Volume Adjustment

Knob adjusts the headphone monitor.
Antenna Bias LEDs
Illuminated when antenna bias power is turned on.

Channel Selector Buttons

From the main screen, pressing a Channel Selector
Button will show a detailed channel screen (see Quick
Start for more information).
NOTE: Press and holding channel selector buttons will
initiate a sync with a transmitter from most screens.
Antenna Loop-thru
For multiple DSQD installations in a rack, a "loop-thru"
is available to feed two or three receivers from a single
antenna pair. Connect coaxial cables from the multicou-
pler loop-thru outputs on the first receiver to the antenna
inputs on the next receiver in the stack.
Tip: it is good practice to only enable antenna
bias power on receivers connected directly to
the antennas.

Dante Ports (if Dante module is installed)

Connects to a Dante digital audio network.
AES3 Ports (DSQD/AES3 option)
AES3 outputs on two TA3M jacks (in place of the two
Dante ports shown)

Ethernet Port

Used for setup, monitoring and control with Wireless De-
signer software or 3rd party control systems connected
via a network.

Multi-Frame Communication

Allows offline, multi-frame communication and frequency
coordination.
Rio Rancho, NM

Power Inlet

The locking DC coaxial inlet requires 7-18 VDC and
draws a maximum of 2.5 A at 7 V (with all channels pow-
ered, Dante module powered, and antenna bias power
on both channels).
Operating Instructions
To begin using the DSQD quickly, follow the steps below.
The other settings can be adjusted as needed.
1. Set Channel Frequency: Assign a frequency to
each channel, which will correlate to the accom-
panying Channel Selector Button (1-4). From
the Quick Access Menu or the RF Setup Menu,
manually set frequency on the RF Frequency
screen or scan for available frequencies and assign
a frequency to each channel from the Frequency
Scan screen.
2. Set Compatibility Mode: From the Quick Access
Menu or the Audio Setup Menu, set compatibility
modes for each channel.
3. Set Encryption Keys: From the IR Sync & En-
cryption Menu, select a key type and then create
a key (if needed).
NOTE: See Encryption Key Management for more
instruction.
4. Sync Settings: From the Quick Access Menu or
the IR Sync & Encryption Menu, initiate sync for
each channel via the IR port. Hold the target trans-
mitter close to the IR port on the front panel of the
DSQD. Select SEND ALL. A message will appear
on the main screen letting you know the sync was
successful. Messages will appear letting you know
if the sync was successful.
NOTE: See Sync Settings for more instruction.
5. You can also quickly check a channel's status by
pressing a Channel Selector Button from the
DSQD home screen. This screen allows you to
change a variety of settings, including status of the
compatibility mode, diversity setting, transmitter
battery status, audio level and audio mute status.
