dm10 

 

7. Programmable inputs: 

Provides 

connection to your signal sources.  It does 

not matter which input each source is 

connected to, as these inputs are allocated 

using remote control.

 

8. Program buttons: 

Allows the inputs to be 

programmed  by  the  remote  control.    They 

will remain illuminated once they have been 

allocated – see 

Connecting signal sources 

and

 

Allocating signal sources and the remote control

 

on page 17/19 

 

9. Tape Monitor Output: 

  For recording 

direct to tape.

 

 

10. Output sockets: 

Used to connect the Pre 

Amplifier to Power amplifier(s). 

  

11. Ground switch:  

If the dm10 is attached 

to  a  power  amplifier  leave  this  switch  on 

Remote

.    If  the  unit  is  not  attached  to  a 

power  amplifier  and  the  user  is  using  the 

headphones, switch to 

Local. 

 

12. Remote sensor window:  

Remote

 

sensor 

for programming purposes.  Point the 

remote at this window when programming 

the dm10. 

 

13.  Main  power  switch,  socket  and  fuse 
holder:   

Once  the  dm10  has  been 

programmed, the main power switch can be 

left  on  and  the  dm10  left  in  standby  when 

not  in  use.  If  the  main  power  switch  is 

turned  off,  all  programming  is  stored  in 

memory. 

 
14.  Remote  Power  Amplifier  Control 
output:  

Connect a cable from this output to 

the  power  amplifier(s)  and  the  dm10  will 

switch  the  power  amplifier(s)  between  

Standby and On.   

 

15. Output selector switch: 

Allows the user 

to  select  the  type  of  output  required, 

Balanced,  Unbalanced  or  Current.    see
