DVA Network
RDnet CONTROL 2
is equipped with proprietary network interface, called RDNET, for PC
interface.
For this purpose, a proprietary communication protocol has been developed for receiving
and sending data; this connection permits real-time monitoring of the diffuser parameters,
such as output power, amplifier temperature, limiter status, etc...
It is also possible to select various equalizations or create new ones, set the desired
volume levels using the specific plug-in.
It is recommended to download DVA Network free software directly from
dB Technologies (www.dbtechnologies.com) in the special section
«Software & Controller»
