OPTIONS AND ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
CDI-S200 Serial Interface Card
The CDI-S200 is an optional RS-232C interface card designed specifically for use with the CX263. It can be retrofitted to the
Zone Mixer at any time. It carries a 9-pin Dsub connector, which replaces the blanking plate adjacent to the mains connector
on the rear panel. When installed, most of the CX263’s primary functions can be controlled with RS-232C serial commands,
typically from AV control systems such as Crestron, AMX, etc.
For the CDI-S200 card to operate correctly, the settings of various internal jumpers need to be changed. Additionally, the
FR/REM
switches should be placed in the REM position, the
DIG/AN
switches in the DIG position for zones under serial
control, and the Access Port jumpers J4, J5 and J6 set to ON as required.
A separate Installation Guide, including full setup and operating instructions is supplied with the CDI-S200 card.
RL-1 Series and RSL-6 Series remote control plates – general considerations
Cloud RL-1 Series and RSL-6 Series remote control plates are available in three form factors: two fit single-gang UK or American
electrical back boxes respectively, while the third is a 50 x 50 mm “Media” module, suitable for “Euro-module” mounting frames
available in most European countries. Back boxes of either the recessed type or surface-mounting type may be used, providing
they are at least 25 mm deep.
Each plate should be connected to the
REMOTE
port of the relevant zone using single- or twin-core screened cable as described
at “Music Control” on page 10. The plate terminations are conventional screw terminals and the
REMOTE
port on the mixer is a
3-pin 5 mm-pitch screw terminal connector.
The remote control plates are passive and thus do not draw any significant current from the mixer.
