D-Command Guide20
Controlling Pro Tools Systems Over a Network
When D-Command is connected to an Ethernet network, it
will be available to be declared by any Pro Tools system on
that network. This lets you control different Pro Tools systems
on the network with a single D-Command console. (You can
only control one Pro Tools system at a time.)
Footswitch Connections
You can connect two SPST (single-pole, single-throw) foot-
switch units to the D-Command Main Unit to control any of
the following functions:
• Starting and stopping Pro Tools playback
• Starting Pro Tools recording
• Toggling Talkback on and off
The footswitch connector is a single 1/4-inch TRS jack on the
back panel of the D-Command Main Unit.
To wire a TRS connector for the D-Command footswitch jack:
 Use the following wiring convention: Tip = Footswitch 1,
Ring = Footswitch 2, Sleeve = Ground.
