Function Buttons and LED Indicators

1. LCD Screen

Display device information, such as device name, port number, preset etc.

1) Initial page

1 2

5 6 7

(1) Device name (2) Current preset (3) Current release version (4) Current ID, when connecting with device, the ID can be obtained automatically. (5) This image means the PC isn’t connecting with DLM808; if connecting well, the two devices inside box will flash alternately. (6) This image means DSP communicate well, if fault, it will show DSP!. (7) This image appears when Dante option inserted in DLM808, or it will disappear.

3. Input Signal LED indicating

Indicate input connection status. When you connect this device to other host, the LEDs indicate corresponding Mic port connection status at back panel.

LEDs indicate as below:

-CLIP(RED). It means current MIC input signal overload.

-SIG(GREEN). It means some signal input from current MIC port.

4. Input Channel MUTE Button

Press CH1-8 buttons, the corresponding background LED light, which means to mute signal from selected channels.

5. Output Signal Indicating LED

Indicate output connection status. When you connect this device to other hosts, LEDs here indicate corresponding XLR port connection status at back panel.

LEDs indicate as below:

-CLIP(RED). It means current XLR output signal overload.

-SIG(GREEN). It means some signal output from current XLR port.

6. Output Channel Select Button

Press CH1-8 buttons, the corresponding background LED light, which means signal can output from selected channels.

7. Status LED Indication

LED indicating as below:

-COMM.(GREEN). Power on DLM808 and connect it with PC by router or CL-4, then open

DLM808’s software control page on PC, it lights if communication is common; while it turns off if communication is fault.

-FAULT(RED). It lights when DSP runs fault, you can see fault information on LCD screen, see

details in section 1 about LCD Screen. At this time please check your device configuration.

8. MIC Input Port1~8

3 poles XLR input. These ports are used for connecting input device of analog microphone or line input devices. Please be sure that MIC input port supports phantom power.

9. XLR Output Port 1~8

These ports are used for connecting analog line output device, such as Amplifier and Speaker.

10. RS-232 Input Port

It can connect other device via RS232 data line, T represents Transmitting end, R represents receiving end, while G represents ground. DLM808 can control this device’s action. Such as selecting two audio channel or mute whole system by device connected to this port. Below table lists the whole command of RS-232:

12. LAN& RC-NET Switch

Use this switch to choice Network control way, you can determine to control it by Ethernet or RC-NET.

13. LAN Network Control Port

DLM808 can connect with Ethernet switch via this port. On LAN network control port, you can see two LEDs, they are connection status indicator (green) and signal transmit indicator(yellow).

-- If the yellow LED goes out, means no signal transmits; while if yellow LED is on, but green one

goes out, means the device detects network, but no connection.

-- If green LED is on ,means network connects well.

14. Optional Module

Usually it is prepared for DANTE module to insert in, which can be used for audio input/output expansion.

15. Power Inlet

Connect AC voltage，100-240VAC，50-60Hz.

16. Power Switch

Press it to turn on/off the device.
