DAB2008C01

The following functions of the DAB2008C01 can be performed remotely:

- Supervision of the status of the AUDIOFLEX bus and verification of the proper

configuration of the buses of the mounting frame.

- Assignment of the time slot for the AUDIOFLEX bus.

- Configuration of the gain and phase reversal of each channel.

- Configuration of the overload threshold.

- Supervision of the audio signals.

4.3.1. Details of the DAB2008C01 registers

The DAB2008C01 module provides control and status registers that can be read and
written by means of specific commands described in the communication control
module user manuals.

The parameter information grouped in the CONTROL or RAM sections is stored in
volatile memory. Any modifications to the parameters will be lost when the module
power supply is disconnected unless the "EEPROM Save" button within the software
has been pressed.

The STATUS section parameters are read-only and cannot be modified.

The EEPROM section parameters are rarely used and are stored directly in non-volatile
memory.

The parameters that can be controlled and supervised remotely for each version of
the firmware are listed below:
