It’s possible to use the functions of the encoder with an IR remote control. By default it uses
the Philips RC5, RC5X, RC6 and Sony SIRC protocol in its 12-bit and 15-bit version protocols.
Other options are possible as well, please contact us for more info.
Push-buttons
Dim
When you push the ‘Dim’ button, the output signal is instantly attenuated by 15dB. The switch
turns red for visual feedback. For more info on changing the 15dB attenuation, see the
technical details.
Mute Left
When you push the ‘Mute left’ button, the signal cuts (Left) and the led in the switch becomes
red showing that it’s in mute.
Mute Right
When you push the ‘Mute right’ button, the signal cuts (Right) and the led in the switch
becomes red showing that it’s in mute.
Diff
When you push the ‘Diff’ button, the left side will be polarity flipped to check if things might be
out of phase, but also when combined with the ‘Mono’ button you can listen to just the diff/side
channel. The switch turns red for visual feedback.
Note: the diff function only works with
balanced signals because of it’s passive nature.
Mono
When you push the ‘Mono’ button the left and right signals are summed to mono. The switch
turns red for visual feedback.
Monitor out switch
Monitor 1 / 2/ 3
With the monitor switch you can select which monitor output is used. Monitor 1 and 2 are
stereo, monitor 3 is a summed mono output.

Power consumption approx 5 watt
Unit size: standard 1u 19 inch, depth 25cm
Weight: approx 2kg
Some notes on passive circuitry:
This device is built around passive circuits (relays and resistors), basically meaning it’s a
straight wire. In most cases this works great and by nature 100% transparent. There could be
the odd monitor/amp that ‘doesn’t like’ this passive nature. In those rare cases it’s possible to
add an active buffer (balanced) stage at a small extra fee.
Dim attenuation:
The Dim function by default is set to an attenuation of 15dB, which could be changed by
changing the resistors mounted on the sockets on the inside
(with dim adjust written next to
it)
. There are 8 resistors in total, but in practice only 4 needs to be changed to change the Dim
