CASSETTE INTERFACE
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
The DMX is equipped with a Cassette Interface which allows programs
contained in the program memory to be stored externally on an audio
cassette. All that is required to use the Cassette Interface feature is an
audio cassette recorder with reasonable frequency response and a pair of
mini-plug to mini-plug audio connecting cables. The cassette player must
have an earphone or ext. speaker output.
CASSETTE INTERFACE CONNECTIONS
See the diagram in the "REAR PANEL CONNECTIONS" section of the manual.
Connect the Earphone or Speaker output of your cassette recorder (a Line
output will not work) to the jack labeled "TO OUTPUT" on the rear of the
DMX. Connect the "TO INPUT" jack on the rear panel of the DMX to the Line
or Aux input of your cassette recorder.
** NOTE **
To reduce hum, remove the cables to the cassette
recorder when not using the Cassette Interface.
