DCM-1 User Manual v1.06
Welcome
Thank you for purchasing this Cloud DCM-1, which
combines the traditional simplicity of Cloud products with
far greater functionality. We are condent that you will
be pleased with its performance, features, exibility and
reliability.
The DCM‑1 is Cloud’s digitally controlled multi zoner. It
combines traditional “installer-friendly” analogue I/O and
signal path, with the exibility and adaptability of digital
control.
Scope of this manual
This manual provides a comprehensive guide to the features
and functionality of the Cloud DCM-1 Digitally Controlled
Mixer. Please read through it to become fully acquainted
with the many conguration and control functions it offers.
It is recognised that the tasks of design/set-up, physical
installation and day-to-day operation of an audio system
based on the DCM-1 are likely to be performed by at least
three different people. You will nd, therefore, that this
manual is divided into sections:
Overview – introduction to the DCM-1 and its
options. Everyone should read this.
Installation – wiring the DCM-1 in a practical
situation. This should be read by the engineer
performing the installation and wiring.
Conguration – setting the system up. This
should be read by the systems designer/engineer who
will congure the system to suit the user’s particular
requirements.
Appendix – additional technical information.
Includes notes about controlling the DCM-1 remotely
via RS232.
User Templates – User’s operating instructions. A set
of blank templates which can be completed and left with
the user when the installation is nished, “personalising”
the DCM-1’s menu system to the particular installation.
The DCM-1 manual includes full details of the optional
CDR-1 remote control panel and the various optional
remote input plates. This information is also supplied with
each item when they are purchased separately.
Thank you again for placing your condence in Cloud
products.
