1. HANDLING PRECAUTIONS

• The power supply cords supplied with the D-2008SP and D-2012C are designed for exclusive use with each equipment. Never use them with other equipment.

• Use the unit in locations where the temperature is between +5 to +40 °C (41 to 104 ºF) and the humidity is less than 90 % (no condensation).

• The unit is a precision audio component. To prevent failure, do not give the unit strong shocks or vibrations.

• When mounting the D-2008SP in an equipment rack, be sure to mount a perforated panel larger than 1U size*1above and below the unit.

• Do not position the heat-generating component such as a power amplifier immediately below the D-2008SP in the rack even if the perforated panel is mounted between them. Also, keep such components away from each other so that the ambient temperature around the D-2008SP should not exceed +40 ºC (104 ºF). Failure to do so may shorten the product life.

• When mounting the D-2012C in an equipment rack, be sure to mount a perforated panel larger than 1U size*1above the unit.

• Do not position the heat-generating component such as a power amplifier immediately below the D-2012C in the rack. Also, keep such components away from each other so that the ambient temperature around the D2012C should not exceed +40 ºC (104 ºF). Failure to do so may shorten the product life.

• Do not place objects on the motorized faders of the D-2012C as these faders move up and down automatically through operation such as preset memory recall.

• The largest-scale system can be configured with 4 D-2008SPs, 4 D-2012Cs, and 1 PC. When using the multiple D-2008SP or D-2012C units, their firmware versions must be 3.0.0 or later, and the D-2000 Setting software version must be 3.0.0 or later. For details on how to check their versions, read the separate Setting Software Instructions, "Menu item description." Firmware of the D-2008SP and D-2012C can be updated using the Setting Software ver. 3.0.0 or later*2. For details on how to update the firmware, read the separate Setting Software Instructions, "Method to Enable Communications between the PC and the Unit." The latest versions of the D-2000 Setting Software and Instruction Manual are made available on the TOA product data download site (http://www.toa-products.com/international/).

• To clean, be sure to first switch off the unit's power, then wipe with a dry cloth. When the unit gets very dirty, use a cloth damped in a neutral cleanser. Never use benzene, thinner, chemically-treated cleaning cloth, or alcohol because such volatile liquids could deform or discolor the unit.

• About the wear-and-tear items The D-2012C's following parts are wear-and-tear items. Replace them when they approach the end of their useful lives, which vary depending on the environments or conditions of use. Note that the replacement of such wear-and-tear parts is chargeable even when the unit is within the valid guarantee period.

· Motor fader: 30000 reciprocations (Approx. 6 years)

· Rotary encoder: 30000 rotations (Approx. 12 years)

*11U size = 44.5 mm or 1.75" (standard size) *2To update the D-2012C firmware ver. 2.0.0, use the dedicated "D-2012C Firmware Updater Software

Program." (Refer to p. 49.)

2. NOMENCLATURE AND FUNCTIONS

2.1. D-2008SP Digital Mixing Processor Unit

The D-2008SP Digital Mixing Processor Unit is designed to have up to 32 audio inputs and outputs in total. A built-in multiple signal processing functions permit the unit to be used as both a mixer and a signal processor. Its audio input/output and control ports can accept plug-in modules, making the unit have a maximum of 32 inputs or 32 outputs and up to 2 control modules. Using the following optional modules enables the unit to perform their functions: Two D-983s Remote Control Module for providing a maximum of 48 contact inputs and 32 contact outputs, D-984VC VCA Control Module for VCA control, and D-2000CB CobraNet Interface Module for audio data transfer between CobraNet devices. Each function can be set using the D-2000 Setting Software. Operation can be performed through the front key operation and from a PC with the D-2000 Setting Software installed. The D-2012C Remote Console Unit, when connected, remotely controls the D-2008SP's basic operations such as volume control. It can be mounted in an EIA component rack (3U size*).

* 1U size = 44.5 mm or 1.75" (standard size)

connected in series using the Through output. However, it is recommended to connect the CobraNet device with the word clock generator on a one-on-one basis.

37. RS-232C terminal

A communications connector for other control equipment.

38. Monitor bus terminal

An audio transmission connector for the D2012C Connects to the D-2012C's Monitor bus terminal. Audio signals are output to the D-2012C's headphone jack through the monitor bus or audio signals from the D-2012C's Line input terminal are input to the monitor bus.

2.2. D-2012C Remote Console Unit

The D-2012C is designed to be used with the D-2008SP Digital Mixing Processor. The D-2012C can be LANconnected to the D-2008SP Processor to allow remote operation of input and output channel volume adjustment, signal level monitoring, contact control and preset memory recall, etc. The D-2012C is equipped with line inputs and audio monitor bus terminal. A PC can be connected to perform such settings as selection of channels for operation and assigning functions to the function keys, using the D-2000 setting software supplied with the D-2008SP Processor. Up to 4 different fader layers can be set when assigning channels to each motorized fader and rotary encoder, allowing an individual D-2012C unit to operate up to 80 channels in monaural. More channels can be operated by performing settings for stereo link and grouping (refer to p. 60 for details about the fader layer). It can be mounted in an EIA Standard component rack (6U* size). It can also be used as a desktop unit in combination with the optional D-2012AS Console Case.

* 1U size = 44.5 mm or 1.75" (reference size)

unit and module.

• Ensure that the module is installed and secured with screws in the correct position.

• Cover idle slots with the blank panels attached to the unit as shipped by the factory.

• Two silver slotted screws at the upper and lower portion of the module face are handles used for module

detachment. Never rotate them because they do not function as screws.

2.4.5. D-2000AD1 Microphone/Line Input Module

9. Monaural input terminal [1, 2, 3, 4] (XLR-3-31 or equivalent)

Electronically balanced input terminal. (Pin 1: Ground, Pin 2: Hot, Pin 3: Cold) Use XLR-3-12C or equivalent for connection. Input sensitivity (–50/–36/–10/+4 dB) and phantom power (+48 V) ON/OFF settings can be performed by a PC using the D-2000 Setting software supplied with the D-2008SP.

Notes

• Be sure to turn off the phantom power (+48 V) when using an unbalanced microphone or equipment

such as a CD player or effecter other than a microphone. As doing otherwise may cause damage to the unit.

• To insert or remove a condenser microphone that requires external power source, turn down the fader of

the corresponding channel, turn off its channel and the phantom power (+48 V), then wait at least 1 minute before inserting or removing. As doing otherwise may cause damage or failure to this module and microphone.

• Noise may be produced when or after the phantom power (+48 V) is turned on or off. Be sure to turn on

or off the phantom power (+48 V) after turning down the fader of the corresponding channel and turning off the channel. Also, never operate the fader nor turn on and off the channel for 1 minute after turning on or off the phantom power (+48 V).

• Current consumption of the phantom power supply must be 5 mA or less per channel.

10. Ground lift switch

When the D-2008SP is connected to other equipment, a ground may create a loop, potentially generating hum noise. In such cases, the ground loop can be cut off by setting the DIP switch on the circuit board to the LIFT position.

Note

When shifting the DIP switch, never touch other parts on the circuit board.
