REAR PANEL FEATURES
7. IEC AC SOCKET
The DX1208 has a universal power supply, allowing it to
operate from any AC mains supply from 100 to 240 VAC,
50-60 Hz. The DX1208 comes with two IEC power cables,
one for 120 V operation and one for 220 V operation. Select
the power cable appropriate for your local AC power and
connect it to the IEC AC socket.
8. ON SWITCH
Use the ON switch to turn the DX1208 on and off.
9. REMOTES
This RJ-25 connector is used to connect to one or more
optional remote controls. Up to 10 UR-family remotes may
be connected in a daisy-chain to this remote control port
(more when external power is supplied). See “Connecting
the REMOTES” on page 9 for more information on using the
remote controls.
10. ADDRESS
Currently disabled, this multi-position rotary switch will be
implemented in future software updates.
11. ETHERNET
This RJ-45 connector allows the DX1208 to be controlled
and programmed by a PC with a 10/100 Base-T Ethernet
connection.
12. DX LINK RX/TX
These RJ-45 connectors are used to connect multiple DX
Link enabled devices together. The DX LINK RX connector
receives audio from devices that are located upstream in
the audio path, and the DX LINK TX connector transmits
audio to devices that are located downstream in the audio
path. See “Connecting the DX LINK RX/TX” on page 9 for
more information on using the DX Link connections.
FRONT PANEL FEATURES
The front panel consists mostly of indicators showing the
status of the DX1208, with the exception of the USB connector
for easy programming access with a PC.
1. INPUT LEVEL INDICATORS
Each input channel has a pair of level indicators. The green
LED indicates the presence of a signal above –40 dBFS.
The red LED indicates when the signal is above –2 dBFS
and is close to clipping.
2. OUTPUT LEVEL INDICATORS
Each output channel has a pair of level indicators. The green
LED indicates the presence of a signal above –40 dBFS.
The red LED indicates when the signal is above –2 dBFS
and is close to clipping.
3. USB CONNECTOR
Use this standard USB connector to connect the DX1208 to
a PC with DX Navigator installed.
4. DX LINK ACTIVE
This red LED lights continuously to indicate when a DX Link
enabled device is connected to the DX LINK RX connector
on the rear panel and is communicating correctly.
5. COMM
This green LED lights to indicate communication activity
via the USB, RS-232, Ethernet, Remotes, or Logic Input
connections.
6. ON
This green LED lights when the power switch is turned
on and the DX1208 is connected to an AC mains with
sufficient voltage for operation.
