DX810 – 17
unconnected or inactive, the logic voltage level is
high (+5 V). The active state is defined as voltage
low (0 V or ground).
The logic functions assigned to each individual
logic input and output are configured using the
DX-10E-PC application. In addition, each logic input
and output can be assigned a descriptive name (up
to 32 characters) for easier identification within the
PC application.
Note: Logic I/O functions are set from the PC only.
Logic Inputs
A number of functions can be activated by the
logic inputs:
Force-on/Force-off
This provides a means to temporarily increase or
decrease the gain of a channel with an external
switch. These are momentary functions and are
active only when the logic input pin is active (held
low). It affects a single input (only if the selected
input has no priority assigned). This is defined when
configured in the DX-10E-PC software application. It
forces the input fader level to the fader on level or
fader off level selected for that channel. See “Audio
In” on page 22 for more information about the Force-
on and Force-off function.
Mute
This function can be activated in one of three
ways:
Momentary: The mute function is continuously active while the
logic input is continuously active.
Latching: The mute function is activated or deactivated when the
logic input goes from inactive to active. Mute activation or
deactivation is specified during configuration.
Toggling: The mute function will toggle its state when the logic
input toggles between inactive and active.
Preset Recall
This function can be activated as a momentary
function or as a latching function. When activated
as a momentary function, the preset state is
recalled only when the logic input is active. When
the logic input is inactive, the DX810 returns to its
base state as long as no other momentary function
is in force. Normally, the base state is the state the
DX810 was in prior to activating the preset state.
When activated as a latching function, the preset
state is recalled when the logic input goes from
inactive to active. See “Presets” on page 21
 
for
more information about the preset recall function.
Logic Outputs
The logic outputs indicate the state of a number
of different conditions.
Signal Present
A logic output can indicate whether a signal
greater than –40 dB is present on an input or an
output. Select the channel from the DX-10E-PC
application.
Preset Active
A logic output can indicate when a particular
preset is active. Choose the preset to be indicated
by the logic output from the DX-10E-PC application.
Priority Inactive
A logic output can indicate whether an Input
Force-on Priority is active. This is selected from the
DX-10E-PC application.
Front Panel Lock
The MODE button on the front panel is used to
disable the front panel controls by selecting LOCK.
The LOCK LED blinks for about five seconds before
it engages. When the LED lights steadily, the front
panel controls are disabled.
The Lock Code can be changed using the
DX-10E-PC application (see page 20, "Set Lock
Code"). To unlock the DX810 from the front panel,
press the bottom "Down" buttons on the front panel
in the correct numerical sequence. Use the
following chart:
Input 1 Down = 1
Input 2 Down = 2
Input 3 Down = 3
Input 4 Down = 4
Input 5 Down = 5
Input 6 Down = 6
Input 7 Down = 7
Input 8 Down = 8
Low EQ Down = 9
   Hi EQ Down = 0
Note: The default Lock Code is "1234."
Upgrading the Software
From time to time, Mackie Industrial will release
upgrades for the internal operating software in the
DX810. This can be downloaded from our website
(
www.mackieindustrial.com
) to a PC-compatible
computer. Use the serial port on the computer to
connect to the COMM PORT on the DX810. Then
transfer the data to the on-board flash memory with
the DX-10E-PC software.
