Appendix 4: Frequently Asked Questions
How do
I update my
DP226 software from the net?
The XTA website http:wvw.xta.co.uk/xta has the latest release of DP226 software
posted on it along with the latest release of the AudioCore control software.
Download the DP226 software, as explained on the software page to a known folder
on your ‘C’
drive
.
Locate the downloaded files on your computer and view
the ‘Read
me.txt’ file which will take you through, step by step, how to upgrade the DP226.
You will need a 9-pin D to 9-pin D, male to female serial lead wired pin 1 to pin1.
XTA can supply this cable for you – part number OPT-103C.
What is the best way to connect my DP226 to a computer?
The best way is via the ‘External’ RS232 port. This will require a 9-pin D to 9-pin D
lead, as would be used for updating the unit with new software. If it is required to
connect a chain of units to the computer for remote control of an entire system, use
the RS485 XLR sockets to chain the slave units together and to connect them to the
master. This configuration, and several others are explained in the section “Typical
Interface Setups” on page 36.
What kind of PCMCIA card do I need for use with the DP226?
For all applications, whether cloning units, storing sets of input memories, storing
crossovers, or updating software, the unit accepts ‘Type I’ 256K SRAM cards. Note
that any card will only accept one type of data – it is not possible to mix input
memory sets, clone data or any other combination of the data types above on the
same card. XTA can supply this card for you – part number OPT-PC1.
How do I copy settings form one DP226 to another?
This may be accomplished using a function built into the unit known as ‘Unit Cloning’.
This feature permits all settings within one unit to be copied onto a PCMCIA card,
and this card, when inserted into another DP226, will set it up to be operationally and
audibly identical to the original unit. Settings that are copied are all current audio
settings, all crossover memories (9), all input memories (40), and all menu options.
To make the clone card:
Insert a
blank
PCMCIA card into the slot on the unit you wish to clone, ensuring that
it is pushed fully home. (Menu options will not be available until the card is inserted)
Press ‘MENU’ and then, using the ‘BACK’, ‘NEXT’ and, ‘ENTER keys, select the
‘System Sub-menu’, followed by the ‘Unit Cloning’ option.
Select ‘Store Clone Data’ from this menu.
