The computer can initiate any functions or actions that a standard control can, by simply transmitting the equivalent control button ASCII character.
  • Page 17 SPM522D is connected to a PC (if the system grounding is not carefully designed). For best performance, the PC ground and the chassis ground of the SPM522D should be at the same potential, and the PC should get AC power from the same source as the SPM522D (and any other audio equipment which is connected to the SPM522D).
