PS-8810
DIGITAL SIGNAL PROCESSOR
Technical Information
• Flash Memory Storage:
In addition to storing program code for the control and DSP
processors, flash memory provides storage for all
nonvolatile data including Presets and setting
.
• IQ Loop:
The dual RJ-45 connector allows IN/OUT connection to an
IQ loop. The BSS PS-8810 can act as either an ordinary
component or an interface. When acting as an interface, a
computer needs to be connected to the RS232 interface
• RS232:
When the BSS PS-8810 is in interface mode, the computer
communicates with the BSS PS-8810 and all components
on its IQ loop via this port. Front Panel control allows
setting of the baud rate, and IQ for Windows software
automatically adjusts to this setting. When in the
component mode, the BSS PS-8810 can still communicate
with the computer through this port
• DSP Interface:
The control processor boots all of the DSP processors via this
interface. Additionally, the control processor sets all audio
processing controls and receives all meter data over this port.
• Real Time Clock: An internal real time clock allows Presets to
be called based upon a real time. The event scheduler works
independently of the computer and can recall a specific
Preset either as a one-time function or a repeatable event with
a specific start time and repeat rate. The clock is capable of
retaining the correct time for up to 45 days without power
applied the BSS PS-8810
• Front Display: The control processor communicates to the
front display via a serial interface. All LED updates and
display information is passed to the front panel in this
manner. The control processor monitors the front-panel
switches
• Power Interface: The System Controller board receives
voltages from the power supply and routes them to the
Input and DSP boards. A regulator creates the +10V available
for the Control Port
