Setting Up the MLA-VC10
Quick Start Guide — MLA-VC10
To install and set up the MLA-VC10, follow these steps and see the
appropriate section of this manual for details:
Step 1
Determine the control voltage required
by the amplifier or mixer.
See “Determining the Control Voltage”
on pages 2-3 to 2-6 of this manual.
Step 2
Set the MLA-VC10’s DIP switches to match
the voltage determined in 1. See “Setting the
Configuration DIP Switches” on page 2-7, and
the reference tables on pages 2-8 and 2-9.

Step 3
Turn all of the equipment off. Make sure that the MediaLink
Controller (MLC) (if used), the MLA-VC10, the audio amplifier or
mixer, and RS-232 host device are turned off and disconnected from
the power source.
Step 4
Terminate cables and use them to connect the MLA-VC10 to the
MLC and/or a power supply and to an amplifier or mixer. See
“Cabling” on pages 2-9 to 2-11. Tie all grounds together.
