depends on the Configuration DIP switch
settings, but the maximum power output will
not be reached if the amplifier's control port
voltage measures more than 10 VDC.

Step 5
Connect the power cables to a power source and power on the
MLA-VC10, MLC/power supply, RS-232 host device, and amplifier
or mixer.
Step 6
For most MLC units used with the MLA-VC10, configure the system
with the Global Configurator program (see page 3-2) or RS-232 (see
page 3-14). The MLC 206 is not supported by Global configurator
and the MediaLink control software (included with the MLC) must
be used (see page 3-10).
Step 7
Set the MLA-VC10’s DIP switches to match
the voltage determined in step 1. See “DIP
switches” on page 3-11, and the reference tables
on pages 3-12 and 3-13.
Step 8
Test the system by turning the volume knob on the MLC or by
sending a volume-related RS-232 command while listening for a
change in the volume level and observing the MLA-VC10’s LED
(which should blink).
Step 9
If wiring changes are needed, turn off the power and unplug
the equipment, make any necessary wiring changes (see
"Troubleshooting", page 3-17), and then restore power to the system.
N When the MLA-VC10 is attached to the control port of some
amplifiers, the amplifier's front panel volume control knob is
disabled.
