Connect the Navitar Dissolve Interface to your 560DM/750DM Series
Xenon Slide Projector and an AVL/Dataton dissolve controller. Connect
the OUT Connector with each dissolve connector (16P) of the corre-
sponding 560DM/750DM Xenon Slide Projector by the attached connec-
tion cables. Connect a dissolve controller using the AVL Type Input
Connector. Connect PAX to the Dataton Type Input Connector by a
cable that is supplied as an option.
Check that the power switch is in the OFF position, then connect the
power cord and turn on the main power switch.
Turn on the set-up switch on the dissolve interface unit and adjust the
position and focus of each picture in the slide projector.
On completion of your picture adjustment, turn off the set-up switch.
Now you are ready to operate your dissolve show.
Since the MDC200 Dissolve Interface deals with a phase controlling
signal, it is absolutely necessary that the phase of the MDC200 com-
pletely corresponds with the power supply of the dissolve controller.
Take power for the MDC200 from the AVL/Dataton Dissolve Controller.
If you take power from other sources, there may be a difference between
phases and the MDC200 may not operate properly.
Since MDC200 deals with phase controlling signals, it will not operate
properly when there are irregular wave forms from the power supply.
Make the wave form regular before operating the MDC200.
MDC200 has a connector (HOME Connector) to put out the zero (0)
position signal of a slide tray. You can use this connector only when a
dissolve controller other than PAX is used. If you have PAX, do not
connect anything. This connector cannot be used. It may damage the
PAX or other equipment connected to it. If you have a halogen slide
projector, the output signal is off (OPEN) at the zero (0) position and on
(CLOSED) at any position other than zero (0). A connector that can be
used is a DIN 8P with pins placed in concentric circles.
Pin numbers for connection: 1 & 2 A
3 & 4 B
5 & 6 C
7 & 8 NC (Non-connection)
