Remote Control
Once all the slaves have been set up, the master unit can be set on-line. Again, it must have a communication
channel allocated, which must not be the same as any of the slaves.
Press HOME(SETUP). Press and hold HOME(SETUP). The left encoder lights, to show that it is
active. Turn to select the channel number for the master unit. Turn the centre encoder to select
MASTER mode. Turn the right encoder to select the maximum number of audio channels in the
system. Press HOME(SETUP) to confirm.
The reason for setting the maximum number of audio channels is to prevent the master unit from wasting time
looking for units that are not present and trying to set them on-line, whilst allowing the user to choose any
channel addresses that are convenient. For example, a system including two DN9340s and two DN9344s
will have 12 audio channels, so set the "Max" value to 12. When the master unit goes on-line, it will search
for units starting from address 1. Once it finds the correct number of audio channels, it will stop searching.
The unit will now ask the user to choose either to "Set All" slaves to the data contained in the master
unit (from the master unit's local copy of the slave data for each address) or to "Get All" data from the
slaves themselves. Press HOME(SETUP) to confirm. The unit will show a "DETECTING UNITS"
page as it searches and initialises the slaves. The system is now on-line.
Operation
To select slaves, go to the home page by pressing HOME(SETUP). Press the lowest of the four soft keys
labelled "Comms". This shows a set of "buttons" on the large graphic screen which correspond to each audio
channel in the system. Use the touchstrip to select the channel that is to be controlled. Units above the line
are selected using the upper touchstrip and units below the line using the lower touchstrip.
The A/B SELECT key can also be used to move between slave channels in the same way as for normal
DN9340 operation.
Pressing and holding the A/B SELECT key provides a fast shortcut to the Comms page from any of the EQ
pages (graphic, parametric etc). If this method is used to access the Comms page, then the master unit will
remember which EQ page was in use when that slave is next selected for use.
System naming
To ensure clarity of operation, each slave can be assigned a meaningful name, in addition to its channel name
(1A, 3B etc.). To set up the names, first select the Comms page on the master unit. Now press the second soft
key (labelled "System"). This opens the system configuration page.
Ahighlighted area shows the field that is currently being edited.
The left-hand encoder scrolls up and down the list of units.
The touchstrip is used to select the column to be edited.
