    Table of Contents Introduction Specifications Theory of Operation Installation Front Panel Rear Panel Relay (1 of 8) and BCD Output Voltage Maintenance Lightning Protection Technical Support Warranty Introduction Congratulations on your purchase of the CC-8A Control Console. Its unique design features both 1- of-8 and BCD control.
  • Page 3: Theory Of Operation

    Theory of Operation The DXE-CC-8A has two easy to use rear panel connector plugs and sockets for control line connections plus one connection for +12 VDC. The two green plugs are easy to wire. Connections are made with a screwdriver; no soldering is required. Not only does this make the CC-8A easy to install, it also allows easy quick disconnect during periods of extended non-use for lightning protection or if the CC-8A is relocated to another area of your operating position.

  • Page 6: Relay (1 Of 8) And Bcd Output Voltage

    The CC-8A supplies a 12 Vdc BCD or 1-of-8 control voltage to external devices. The DX Engineering RR8 remote 8-port RF switch requires a nominal 12 Vdc relay control voltage. If you are using another switch, ensure the proper control voltage is selected before you power-on the Control Console.

    ARRL handbooks, NAB Broadcast Handbook or other reliable sources. Always remember good grounds and proper feedline connections improve lightning protection and transmitting and receiving performance. A good feedline lightning protector, such as those made by PolyPhaser and available from DX Engineering, is also highly recommended.
