Panasonic WR-DA7 - Manual (Page 184)

[SLOT3]
Digital SLOT 3 can have its inputs routed directly to inputs 9 through 16,
replacing the analog inputs. On the Top Panel of the DA7, inside the label
strip for inputs 9 through 16, it also says
SLOT 3. When there is an option
card in SLOT 3, and you have selected the option on the DIGITAL INPUT
SELECT area, these faders become inputs for that option card.
You can switch between the analog and digital inputs at any time, and as
often as you wish without changing any connections to the DA7. This allows
you to connect up to three digital multi-track machines for 24 digital inputs,
and 16 analog sources at the same time. You would simply have to choose
which set of inputs would be operational at any given time.
To send the SLOT 3 input to INPUTS 9-14 and 15/16, cursor to the box on
the far right, and press the ENTER button to set the switches in the down
position. This will route the SLOT 3 audio signals to INPUTS 9-14, 15/16.
In order to make it easier for you to tell which set of inputs is selected, the
FLIP LED buttons for the associated Channel Strips will turn
(orange)
when digital SLOT3 inputs are selected, and (green) when analog inputs are
chosen.
