Architect and engineer's specifications

Rotary remote control for Oxmoor DCA-2T Digital Control Attenuator. Sixteen concentric LEDs provide virtual pointer display. Multiplexed display refreshed at line frequency rate by serial data burst; single illuminated LED gives visual level reference. Control performs incremental rotary bi-phase encoding using a quadrature-to-pulse conversion circuit. Data ports (IN and OUT for DCA-2T connection and "daisy chaining"): RJ-11 type modular phone jacks; accept 4-wire plug for volume control and display or 6-wire RJ-11 type plug for remote activation of Preset or Priority function of DCA; allow "daisy-chain" loop wiring scheme between each control and device controlled. A 5-pin junction block provides connection points for a security key switch and both preset and priority activation. Maximum cable length between remote and controlling device: 600m (2000ft), referenced to a cable resistance of 12 ohms/100m.

Acceptable: Oxmoor RC-16
