Remember, for this to work you need to make sure that the remote codec has
been ‘enabled’ by the checking of the
Enable rem level ctrl
and
Enable rem
on/off ctrl
functions on the remote codec.
Please note:
It is not possible to gang inputs of a master codec together and
use this function to control inputs remotely on a slave codec. However, if you
have a stereo source or two or more inputs which you would like to gang
together and control on the slave codec, this can be done at the remote (slave)
codec. Simply gang the inputs you would like controlled on the slave codec to a
single input that is being remotely controlled by an input on the master codec.
See the section titled Configuring Remote Control for more details.

Adjusting Local (Master Codec) and Remote (Slave Codec)
Input Levels When in Remote Control Channel Mode
When a connection is made, the remote (slave) codec obtains gain settings from
the local (master) unit and it then stores the settings in memory.
If remote control functionality is enabled on both the master and slave codecs,
and you have sources plugged into either of these codecs, you may wish to adjust
the levels of these inputs locally - either before or after the codecs are connected.
To adjust the input level settings locally at either codec, simply press the
CUE-
COMMS
button for the channel you wish to adjust and while holding it down
adjust the input pot on the channel. If the
CUE-COMMS
button is being used for
talkback then this will only work in offline mode. Please note that there is no
CUE-COMMS
button on
COMMANDER
G
3
field and TLR300B rack unit codecs
- so level adjustment of inputs by this method is not possible.
31.6.1.
TLR300B Local and Remote Input Level Control
With the TLR300B codec, adjust levels locally and remotely by programming
the local or remote inputs onto the codec’s
PPM
meters. This is done by
holding down the
LEVEL SELECT
button for a
PPM
meter and then pressing
the
PPM SELECT
button to sequentially scroll through the menu options.
To adjust the local or remote input levels, simply continue to press the
LEVEL
SELECT
button for the input and use the
MENU SELECTOR
to adjust the
audio gain up and down, or use
SOFTKEYS 1 & 2
to turn the channel on or
off. For more information please see the section in the main codec reference
manual titled ‘Menu Selector Input Controls’.
Please note:
A remote codec’s channels, that are to be controlled by a rack
unit codec, will need to be programmed for remote control operation.
