R-Type

timed X-fade

Feature of CADAC’s console automation soft-
ware that allows a cross-fade to be set between
two or motor faders.

TIP

Part of the 0.25” TRS carrying the in-phase-sig-
nal (hot).

trim control

The Listen & output module includes three trim
controls - PFL, Listen and Ext I/P - which are
used to compensate for differences in input and
output listening levels.

TRS jack connectors

A type of input or output connector where:

TIP = In-phase signal (hot)
RING = Out-of-phase signal (cold)
SLEEVE = Screen

true L-C-R panning

Achieved by pressing the L-C-R button on the
input channel. This will route the input signal to
either to the L-C or R outputs on the L-C-R mod-
ule, depending on the setting of the PAN-pot.
Use the input channel PAN-pot to alter the
sound image to meet your requirements.

Another way of achieving this is to route any
number of input channels/groups of input chan-
nels to one or more sub-groups and then control
the L-C-R panning with the sub-group PAN-pot.

NOTE: The L-C-R switch overrides the L-
R+CEN selections.The stereo bus follows the L-
C-R pan pot.

USB port

Abbreviation of Universal Serial Bus port; used
for the transmission of data.

User Setup

Menu option in the CCM.

VCA

Abbreviation of Voltage Controlled Amplifier

VCA switch

Allows the A & B outputs and matrix output on
an O/P module to be controlled by the VCA
fader directly below the module.

WRITE mode

Indicates that a motorized fader is sending posi-
tion data to the CCM.

X-fade

Also referred to as cross-fade, this feature of
CADAC’s console automation software allows
programmed cross-fading

XLR connectors

A type of input or output connector where:

PIN 1= ground
PIN 2= + phase
PIN 3= - phase

zero-signal reference potential

The potential of a point or area in a circuit, sys-
tem or sub-system that is conventionally taken
as 0 volts with respect to all other local voltages.
