Chapter 3: Setting Up the Fader Module
This chapter explains how to add the Fader Module to the
D-Command Main Unit.
Placement of D-Command Fader Module
When placing the D-Command Fader Module in studio furni-
ture or on a table top, make sure to account for the dimen-
sions of the assembled system, allowing for at least 1 inch
(2.5 cm) of open space behind the finished unit. This meets
the ventilation requirements for the D-Command units.
When bracketing together your system, you will need addi-
tional clearance on either side of the unit to push the Fader
Module and the Main Unit together, as well as sufficient clear-
ance in front and behind the units to allow you to attach the
brackets. You will also need access to the rear of the unit to
make cable connections.
The Fader Module is designed to be attached to the left of the
D-Command Main Unit.
Assembling an Expanded System
The D-Command Main Unit can be attached to the D-Com-
mand Fader Module, using the front, middle, and rear brack-
ets included with the D-Command Fader Module.
