P.I.P.-RPA
A.1 Custom Remote Control
This section describes (1) how to
avoid problems with audio taper pots,
and (2) how to get full-range control
with pot values other than 10 K ohm.
A pot with an audio or log taper is
called an “Autoper” pot. C-taper pots
are similar to A-type pots except the
tape is reversed. The P.I.P.-RPA is
designed to use C-taper pots for
remote level controls.
Crown’s RPA-RMT is the best remote
control because of its C-taper. Com-
mon A-taper sliders can be flipped to
create the C-taper, but A-taper ro-
tary pots can’t be flipped. Linear
pots are not recommended.
Appendix
Important: This Appendix includes
instructions on how to modify the
P.I.P.–RPA to accommodate special

should attempt to make these modi-
fications. Other than the ones de-
scribed here, no other modifications
are approved by Crown. If you have
any questions or need further techni-
cal assistance, please contact the
