MVi-DRCADAPT

Product Description:
The MVi-DRCADAPT permits the direct connection of a JL Audio rotary-style Digital
Remote Controller (DRC) to a MVi amplifier via its JLid-COMM Port.
Notes: This product is not compatible with mono MV amplifiers or the MVi-HUB.
This product is not needed for connection of M-DRC-50 push-button controller.
What is Included:
(1) MVi-DRCADAPT
(1) Mounting Clip
(2) Mounting Screws
Placement Considerations:
The MVi-DRCADAPT should be installed near the connected MVi amplifier,
where its JLid status LED can be viewed.
Installation:
1. Plug the cable end of the MVi-DRCADAPT into the JLid-COMM port of the MVi amplifier.
2. Install a compatible DRC controller (sold separately) per its instructions and connect its
cable end to the RJ45 jack of the MVi-DRCADAPT.
Mounting Clip Installation:
A mounting clip is included to secure the MVi-DRCADAPT module. Use the supplied screws
to fasten the mounting clip to a flat surface. Once the mounting clip is installed, attach the
MVi-DRCADAPT module by pressing one side of its notched center section against the
inside of one of the arms of the mounting clip. Continue pressing inward until both arms of
the mounting clip snap around the notched center section of the MVi-DRCADAPT module.
Ensure that the JLid Status LED is facing outward and visible. To remove, grasp the module’s
body and pull while rotating away from the mounting clip.
JLid Status LED:
The MVi-DRCADAPT module is equipped with a multi-color status LED.
