CL-2 Remote Fader (optional)
The CL-2 Remote Fader is an optional accessory for the 788T/788T-SSD Digital Recorders. The
unit’s linear fader can be programmed for fader control of any 788T input. The CL-2 can be mounted
directly to most boom poles for easy level control of the assigned channel. The CL-2 is also usable
in-hand or placed a fl at surface.
The CL-2 is equipped with four programmable switches (two momentary, two latching) which are
assigned from the 788T to control various 788T functions, including Record On and Off. The 30 mm
fader and switches are positioned for ease-of-use by both left- and right-handed users.
The 788T C. Link In port is disabled when the Setup Menu Connection Mode is set to Connect to Wave
Agent. The Sound Devices CL-2 is not functional in this mode.
CL-2 Connection
The CL-2 connects to the 788T via the C.Link Input on the 788T’s back panel. The 788T connects and
powers the CL-2 via the C.Link Input connector, no other powering source is required. Immediately
after connecting the CL-2 it will search and update accordingly to the 788T’s latest version of fi rm-
ware.
A warning screen will appear should the CL-2 be disconnected during operation. The 788T will re-
tain all CL-2 settings until further action is taken. If the CL-2 is reconnected the 788T will immediate-
ly return to the screen viewed prior to the disconnection. All settings will remain the same, provided
that the fader level has not been adjusted. If the check mark is selected, the 788T will revert back to
stand alone operation.
Connecting the CL-2
1. Connect the included C. Link cable to the 788T’s C. Link Input connector.
2. Connect the opposite end of the C. Link cable to the CL-2’s C. Link connector.
Refer to the CL-2 User Guide for instructions on how to physically mount the CL-2 to a boom pole.
