The previous items are used to build a Delta-88. The following components are external to the
Delta-88 and can be used to create a full Delta System.
System & Source AC Control
The Delta-88 is the heart of the Delta System but AC switching of home theater systems,
external power amplifiers, and even the source components must use either an ACC-
3 and DB-9, ACC-48, or ACC-3000.
ACC-3000 Source AC Controller
• an ADA Bus™ Component • is used for to provide smart
AC switching to each source. If a source is selected on the Delta-88, the ACC-3000 will
turn it on. This ideal operation extends the life of source components while permitting
true one-button operation of Tuners, CD players, and Cassette Players. Using CDs and
Cassette Players with a timer play function, mere selection of that source from either the
Delta-88 or a keypad will turn on that room, turn on that source, and automatically
engage play. To determine if your source component incorporates timer/play, either
locate a switch marked timer/play or: turn the source on, engage it into play, unplug
the source component while in play, plug the source component back into an AC outlet,
and wait 5-10 seconds. If the source has automatic timer/play, it will resume playing
automatically.
ACC-48 Basic AC Controller
can be configured to provide one, two, or three different AC
controlling tasks. Designed as an inexpensive way to
provide AC switching, the ACC-48 has four AC
outlets which are triggered via the 9 pin ribbon cable
that connects to the Delta-88's 9 pin "D" connector.
Each AC outlet has a corresponding jumper pin bank
of eight plugs. These eight plugs determine when
that AC outlet turns on. Furthermore, the Delta-88
has a step in its setup program which sets the function
of its 9 pin "D" connector. These options exist
Option 1 - Source Tracking. When the Delta-88's 9 pin "D"
connector is set to source tracking (in software), the ACC-48's AC outlets will engage on
and off with respect to the sources in use on the Delta-88. Thus an ACC-48 can provide
basic independent AC control of up to four sources. Two ACC-48s could provide basic
independent AC control of eight sources. When using the MT-3000 Multi-Tuner, the
MT-3000 typically acts as three of the eight sources on the system. Therefore, if you only
