Introduction 

 
Congratulations on your purchase of the 

CC-8A

 Control Console. Its unique design features both 1-

of-8 and BCD control.  This allows it to be used with existing 1-of-8 systems like the DX 
Engineering

 DXE-RR8-HP

 remote 8 port RF switch, or BCD systems like the

 DXE-RFS-2P

 and 

DXE-FVC-1

.  Its universal nature allows operation with any 1-of-8 or BCD system of compatible 

voltage.  We know you are anxious to get started but before you install the 

CC-8A

, take a few 

minutes to read this brief user guide and familiarize yourself with the installation, operation and 
safety procedures. We are confident that you will find this control console easy to use and that it 
will reward you with years of faithful service.  
 
This unit is RoHS (Reduction of Hazardous Substances) compliant. The components, including the 
solder used are all lead free. If you decide to do any modifications or internal repairs, you 
should use only lead free solder and lead free soldering tools. Lead free solder melts 
approximately 100 degrees (F) higher than the old leaded solder, so you may need to 
upgrade your current soldering system.
