Dear Customer,
Thank you for choosing the Studio Remote and headphones-amplifier.
The Studio Remote is designed by specialists in the field of radio broadcast and is intended to be used
together with the broadcast consoles of D&R.
This time you are not faced with a huge manual because it is simply not necessary because of the natural
recognition of all functions on the user interface. All functions are self-explanatory and you will certainly
appreciate the ergonomics of this design. No digital layering just direct access to all relevant functions, as
we think it should be in daily practice
We always value suggestions from our clients, and we would therefore be grateful if you could sent us your
comment and/or suggestions, once you have become familiar with your Studio remote-Unit mk4. We will
certainly learn from your comments, and we will very much appreciate the effort and time it will take for
you to communicate your idea’s and suggestions.
We are confident that you will be using the Studio Remote for many years to come, and wish you a lot of
success.
With kind regards,

The Studio Remote Unit is
designed to be the remote and
communication interface between
the mixing console and the
announcer or guest.
It has a built in headphone amp
and 2 remote switches with
RED/GREEN LED indication.
The Studio Remote is the perfect
solution for a remote headphone
amplifier
CHOUGH
When pushing this button the
channel to which this Studio
remote unit is connected will be
muted (to be able to cough).
COM
When the COM button is pushed,
now also the channel to which this
Studio remote unit is connected
will be muted. But at the same
time the CUE switch in that
channel will be activated to
COMmunicate with the engineer
at the mixing console.
The unit can be connected directly
to the D&R AXUM / AIRLAB /
AIRENCE / AIRLITE.
The only difference is another back panel PCB.

AXUM | AIRMAX
REMOTE/SIGNALLING IN MIC MODE.
This useful feature has five important functions:
1. COUGH Switch for Cough only.
2. COM switch for cough + communication.
3. Mic-On Red Light indication.
4. Direct Mic Connection, XLR to RJ 45
5. Headphones Amplifier is switchable
between
A and B
A shielded cat-5 cable has to be connected
between the Studio Remote and the mixing
consoles Mic-input channel that needs
communication. Together with the remote control
also the Mic-input is directly connected.
Using the push-button during broadcast, the
announcer can temporarily mute the microphone
in order to cough (where the name comes from).
When COMM is activated his microphone will be
routed to the Cue system, in order to give her/him
the opportunity to communicate with the
engineer/producer.
Wiring for the D&R AXUM
The Audio-input RJ45 of the Studio remote Unit needs to be wired to the Axum or AirMax. The cat5 cable
can be connected directly to the CRM card of the AXUM. In this way both CRM and Studio signal is
available and can be selected with the toggle switch in-between the Pushbuttons underneath the front
panel. The Audio-Input-thru RJ45 can be used to connect more Studio remote-Units to the same Audio
Input (parallel).
Always use shielded cat5 cable to prevent hum. The shield is also ground of the signal.
Power-Jack:
Connect the external power-supply (+ 9 to 12 volt) to the Power-Jack connector.
Be careful, only use the standard D&R Studio Remote power-supply that is part of the delivery.
When in doubt ask your local D&R dealer or a qualified technician.
Do not connect a wrong or damage power-supply to the Studio Remote to prevent you from electric
shocks.
Always use a Class II power supply (without earth pin, double isolated).

AIRLAB | AIRMIX
REMOTE/SIGNALLING IN MIC MODE.
This useful feature has three important
functions:
1. Remote Switch for Cough
2. Remote switch for Talkback or
communication
3. Headphones Amplifier.
The Audio-jack connector of the Studio
remote Unit need to be wired to the master of
the Airmix/Airlab, Guest or Announcer outputs
or whatever suits your purpose mostly. The
volume of this signal can now be adjusted with
the potentiometer on the front of the remote.
A wiring schematic will be shown in the
specification section of this manual.
Power-Jack:
Connect the external power-supply (+ 9 to 12 volt) to the Power-Jack connector.
Be careful, only use the standard D&R Studio remote-Unit power-supply that is part of the delivery.
When in doubt ask your local D&R dealer or a qualified technician.
Do not connect a wrong or damaged power-supply to the Studio remote-Unit to prevent you from electric
shocks. Always use a Class II power supply (without earth pin, double isolated).

AIRENCE | AIRLITE
REMOTE/SIGNALLING IN MIC MODE.
This useful feature has three important functions:
1. Remote Switch for Cough
2. Remote switch for Talkback or communication
and showing Mic-On Red Light etc.
3. Headphones Amplifier.
The Audio-jack input connector of the Studio
remote unit need to be wired to the master of the
Airence/Airlite, Guest or Announcer outputs or
whatever suits your purpose mostly. The volume
of this signal can now be adjusted with the
potentiometer on the front of the remote.
The audio-jack output connector is connected to
the audio-jack input connector for feeding
through (looping) the audio signal.
The S1/S2 jack connector needs to be wired to
the channel (Remote) of which you want to mute
(cough) the mic input. Use a balanced jack (TRS)
cable for all connections.
A wiring schematic will be shown in the
specification section of this manual.
Power-Jack:
Connect the external power-supply (+ 9 to 12 volt) to the Power-Jack connector.
Be careful, only use the standard D&R Studio remote-Unit power-supply that is part of the delivery.
