Toa D-911 Instruction Manual

D-911 VCA FADER UNIT
Thank you for purchasing TOA's D-911 VCA Fader unit.
Please carefully follow the instructions in this manual to ensure long, trouble-free use of your equipment.
1. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The D-911 VCA Fader Unit is designed to remotely control
the digital mixer with the D-984VC VCA Control Module
installed. Connecting to the D-984VC permits volume
adjustment of input and output channels and contact
controls of the digital mixer.
2. HANDLING PRECAUTIONS
• Connect the D-911 to the
D-984VC VCA Control
Module installed in the
digital mixer. Connect each
of eight terminals to the D-
984VC's terminal of the
same name by way of the
fully-connected straight cable as shown on the right.
• Use the D-901 firmware of version 3.0 or later. Firmware
versions earlier than it cannot be used in conjunction with
the fader unit.
The firmware version
number can be confirmed
on the D-901's front
panel-mounted display.
If your firmware version is
old, download the latest software program and the "D901
PC software instruction manual" from the TOA Internet
product data site [http://www.toa-products.com/]. For the
update procedure, refer to the instruction manual.
• For channels with stereo link or group settings
established at the digital mixer, only the lowest numbered
channel in the preset link or group is enabled.
• Fader position "10" of the D-911 provides the channel
gain set by the digital mixer. As a guide, knob position 8
provides about 10 dB below the gain set by the D-901.
