TOA ENGINEERED SOUND PRODUCT
DIGITAL SOUND DELAY
D-1103
DESCRIPTION
The TOA D-1103 is a One-by-Three Digital Delay, designed
for a wide variety of applications such as theaters, concert
halls, houses of worship, auditoriums, large meeting rooms,
arenas and stadiums.
Delay times range from 10 microseconds (1/8 inch) to 655
plastic security cover is included to restrict access to all
front panel controls.
An automatic bypass function permits complete signal
bypass of the unit in the event of an AC power loss.
Terminal strip connections are used for electronically
balanced inputs and outputs. High quality, low distortion

neously to perform the microsecond delay required for ensure reliability, The D-1103 occupies one standard EIA
component alignment. rackspace.
The use of 16-bit, 100kHz analog-to-digital conversion
allows the D-1103 to achieve superb audio quality, with
dynamic range better than -90dB and THD below 0.03%.
Delay information may be stored in four non-volatile preset
memories, permitting instant set-ups. The preset memories
can be accessed with front panel switches or remotely via
contact closures. This permits simultaneous activation of
several interconnected units, either externally or by means
of a master D-1103 unit. A removable screw-terminal link
sets the status of the D-1103 as a master or slave unit.
A rear panel protect switch disables all front panel functions
except level controls, to prevent tampering. A smoked

ARCHITECTS AND ENGINEERS SPECIFICATIONS
The digital signal delay device shall be capable of delaying an audio input
signal to each of three independently adjustable outputs. The minimum
output time setting shall be 100 microseconds, including propagation
delay, and the time delay at each output shall be adjustable in 10-
microsecond steps up to maximum delay of 655 milliseconds. The unit
shall use 16-bit A-to-D conversion with a 100kHz sampling rate, and shall
have a maximum output-to-noise ratio floor of greater than 90dB. The input
circuitry shall be electronically balanced and shall accept either balanced
or unbalanced sources. The balanced input impedance shall be 10k
ohms. Each output circuit shall be electronically balanced and capable of
driving a load of 600 ohms or greater. The unit shall accept optional input
and output transformers which shall be internally installed via standoffs
and plug-in connectors. A7-segment LED input headroom display shall
indicate 3dB below maximum output for the combination of input and input
level control settings. Frequency response shall be flat (±1dB) from 20Hz
to 20kHz. The digital delay device shall include a digital display that can
be set to indicate the time delay of Outputs 1, 2and 3. A front panel
Finecontrol shall allow the user to set the output delay for output 1, 2or
3in summed high resolution (1 O-microsecond step) or low resolution
(1 -millisecond step) modes. A Lockmode shall be provided which
disables all front panel pushbuttons except the memory selection and
Finekeys. A back panel Protectswitch shall disable all front panel
pushbuttons, leaving only input and output level controls functional. A
security cover shall be provided to protect the front panel controls from
being tampered with. The delay unit shall provide four preset memories for
storage of delay-time settings. The preset memories shall be accessible
via front panel pushbuttons or remotely by means of contact closures
through a rear panel terminal strip. Up to 15 delay units shall be
configurable, with a single master unit to initiate preset selection for all
slave units. The unit shall contain a relay circuit which bypasses all internal
electronics in the event of power failure. lnput and output connections
shall be made via rear panel terminal strip connectors. The unit shall
measure 19.0" wide x 1.7" high x 14.0" deep (483 x 44 x 357mm) with rack
