0.09 USING THE SR-3 WITH A DAW
Any DAW that can control a Video Machine via RS422 may be used wit the SR-3 to control up to
3 machines. The SR-3 may also be used as a timecode and RS4-22 switcher for the DAW.
The serial control cable normally connected to the video machine should be connected to Port-A on
the SR-3. The timecode input on the DAW (if required) should be connected to the timecode output
on the SR-3.
The [A] switch on the SR-3 is used as a local remote switch, in order for the DAW to control the
system the [A] LED should be ON. The DAW will directly control the current SR-3 master, to define
the master use Shift followed by the machine key (B, C, D or E).

2) Either use a TX-Rx invert cable to connect to port A, or Change the 4 internal links on Port A to be
parallel to the back panel as per the diagram at the end of this manual.
Once configured as an input the following changes are made to the unit.
1) The controller connected to port A will control the currently selected master (B, C, D).
