10. The Setup Menu
10.1 General
Some options and settings are accessed and changed very seldomly. These have been col-
lected in the Setup menu. The Setup menu is entered by pushing
SETUP
, situated below the
encoder.
SEt
is displayed on the left part of the Gain displays. Turning the encoder scrolls
through all the options, displayed as abbreviation in the right part of the Gain displays.
The Select key 8 allows to toggle the current setting, for example changing between On and
Off. Otherwise the Select keys 7 and 8 can be used to increase/decrease the current value, for
example the ID (1 to 8).
All changes are stored automatically. With a second push on the SETUP key the Setup menu is
exit.
10.2 ID (Id)
Default: 01
Available settings: 01, 02, 03, 04, 05, 06, 07, 08
To remote control more than one DMC-842 each device can have its own ID, providing a sepa-
rated remote control of multiple devices via a single MIDI channel.
I64 MADI Card: The ID also defines the 8-channel group within the MADI signal that is used to
insert the device's audio data:
ID 01: channels 1-8
ID 02: channels 9-16
ID 03: channels 17-24
ID 04: channels 25-32
ID 05: channels 33-40
ID 06: channels 41-48
ID 07: channels 49-56
ID 08: channels 57-64
When several DMC-842, Micstasy, ADI8-QS or ADI-642 units are connected via MADI, Auto ID
normally takes care of the channel assignment (see chapter 10.4, Auto ID). In special cases, it
may be desirable to set the ID manually, e.g. if the first device in a MADI chain does not support
the Auto ID mode, or if a group of eight channels needs to be routed or processed in a particu-
lar way.
With activated mode
Digital Out
the ID also defines which MADI input channels are sent to the
ADAT/AES outputs, see chapter 10.9. With activated mode
Analog Out
the ID also defines
which MADI input channels are sent to the analog outputs, see chapter 10.10.
Note: When the device is
Auto ID Slave
, the displayed ID can not be changed manually.
10.3 Bank (bA)
Default: 01
Available settings: 01, 02, 03, 04, 05, 06, 07, 08
To remote control more than one DMC-842 each device can have its own ID (chapter 10.2),
providing a separated remote control of multiple devices via a single MIDI channel. Additionally,
not only 8 IDs but 8 banks of 8 IDs each are available.
