3.1  RJ12 control port 

The    6  wire  RJ12  port  enables  the  LT88/E  to  be  controlled  by  a  proprietary  LEAF 
controller such as the TC3.  

3.2  4 way DIP switch module 

The  rear  panel  accessible  4  position  DIP  switch  controls  functionality  of  the  LT88/E. 
The table below summarizes the settings: 

NOTE: The interface will only read the DIP switch settings on power-up. The unit must 
be powered off and then back on again for it to respond to any change of the DIP 
switch settings.

3.3  Digital Coax (S/PDIF) audio inputs:  

The upper row of RCA sockets 1 to 8 are configured as digital coax (S/PDIF) stereo 
audio input ports. They can be used as either alternative audio inputs (selectable with 
discrete Audio Only commands) or the input points for audio only sources. 

 

3.4  Stereo RCA analog outputs 

The lower 2 rows of RCA sockets 1-8  are configured as stereo analog audio outputs 
for connection to local devices such as centralised external amplifiers.  

The  source  audio  for  these  outputs  can  be  either  an  HDMI  input  source,  digital  coax 
(S/PDIF) stereo connector input or audio return from a zone breakout input.  

The RCA outputs maybe routed manually or automatically (the default). 

With automatic routing active, the RCA audio outputs will follow the zone audio output 
of  the  same  number.  (example:  If  zone  4  is  selected  to  source  2,  then  in  automatic 
mode the RCA audio will also come from source 2).
