12 dB and 18 dB Output Pads
Each DFR22 output has a 12 dB pad and an 18 dB pad that can be
engaged through the software interface. Use these pads when con-
necting the DFR22 to lower-level inputs. They cannot be used to
prevent clipping at the output stage of the DFR22
NOTE: The Output meters indicate the signal level present at the
digital-to-analog converters. The 12 and 18 dB pads act upon the
signal after the digital-to-analog converters, so the meters do not
reflect the pads.
COMPUTER CONNECTIONS
RS-232 Connections
Connect the COM port on your computer to the 9-pin RS-232 con-
nector on the front panel of the DFR22, shown in Figure 9, using a
male-to-female serial cable. Pin outs for a 9–pin RS–232 cable are
shown in Figure 10 and listed in Table 1.
NOTE: Only the TX, RX, and GND pins need to be connected in
order to communicate with the DFR22.
You can also connect a computer or control system to the 3–pin
RS-232 Phoenix connector on the back panel of the DFR22, as
shown in Figure 11.
IMPORTANT: You CANNOT connect two PCs to the DFR22 at the
same time. However, you CAN connect an AMX or Crestron sys-
tem and a PC to the DFR22 at the same time.

Shure Link Network
Up to 16 Shure Link devices, including the DFR22, DFR11EQ,
DP11EQ, P4800, and UA888, can be linked and controlled from
one computer. Using 5-pin DIN cables, connect the Shure Link IN
and Shure Link OUT of each device, as shown in Figure 12.
NOTE: The last device in the chain MUST be connected to the
first device (the one connected directly to the computer) to
form a loop.
