Mounting D-Control Cables (Optional)

Three different kinds of cable ties are provided with D-Con-

stand legs with the #8 x 1/2-inch self-tapping screws.
Adhesive-Backed Ties These self-sticking tie mounts let you
place cable ties anywhere on the D-Control unit, and can be
used to dress cables or to mount an Ethernet hub under the

Reconfiguring the D-Control Keyboard
for a Windows System
The computer keyboard on the D-Control Main Unit ships
with a Mac keyboard configuration.
If you will be using D-Control with a Windows-based
Pro Tools system, you will need to reconfigure the computer
keyboard.
To reconfigure the D-Control computer keyboard for Windows:
Using a 5/64-inch hex wrench, remove the screws in the
1
computer keyboard panel and detach it from the D-Control
Main Unit.
