Hardware Description
Front Panels
The front of the Acappella frame and the related remote panels will vary
with the configuration of the system. All Acappella frames can be ordered
with a local panel installed in the frame. When a local panel is ordered, the
front will appear with the button configuration that matches the Acappella
frame’s Input and Output configuration. Remote panels can be ordered in
several configurations and do not have to match the Acappella frame’s
Input and Output configuration. The panel’s appearance is related to how
many Sources and Destinations are available, not how many Levels are
used.
Any Acappella frame ordered without a Local Panel will appear as shown
in
Figure 1 .
