5.5 GPIO Setup and Connection
Danley DSA ampliers provide a GPIO socket that enables
remote control of volume, standby, mute and trigger functions.
The GPIO connector pin functions are described in the GPIO
Settings menu illustrated in Diagram 5l. The connection of
GPIO based remote volume control and standby/mute are
illustrated in Diagram 5m and Diagram 5n respectively.
Note: The GPIO connector must not be used for any unintended
purpose. Amplier damage may result from incorrect use of
GPIO.
Note: Shielded cable must be used when connecting standby
switches and potentiometers via GPIO.
Note: GPIO Pin 8 has a low output impedance and is able to
supply a maximum current of 10mA.
Note: GPIO Pin 1 and Pin 3 both offer ground connections:
Pin 1 is connected directly to the amplier chassis.
Pin 3 is connected to the chassis via a 220 Ohm resistor.
The ‘soft ground’ connection of Pin 3 is potentially useful for
managing ground loops that may cause audible hum.
