Author Topic: DTS6 used with DFP-D3000 Chase Pickett Expert Film Handler Posts: 142 From: Irving, Texas, USA Registered: Nov 2010 posted 03-30-2011 08:10 PM                     I know it is possible to use a DTS6 processor through an SDDS DFP-D300 processor (although DTS says it isn't,) but how would I go about configuring the SDDS processor to use the DTS? I solved this issue by swapping the DSP-82 board from an auditorium that was initially configured to use the DTS6 with the SDDS processor (which was a tip from our tech,) but how does one go about configuring an existing SDDS processor without the need to swap boards? I'm just curious as to how this works. -Chase  |  IP: Logged Nathan Tarpley Film Handler Posts: 12 From: Crystal Lake, IL Registered: Sep 2007 posted 03-30-2011 08:45 PM                    Sounds like you have a great tech.  |  IP: Logged Marin Zorica Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 671 From: Biograd na Moru, Croatia Registered: May 2003 posted 03-31-2011 09:10 AM                     It's so simply to do with Sony processors. Just wire DTS6 to one of DFP inputs, AUX1 or AUX2, than on automation connector wire DTS6 automation, if you skilled you can see from schematic, if not I can draw some to help you, but I must look on schematic since who can remember pinouts Fact is, you configure on of DFP3000 presets with AUX input on which DTS is connected, than in case DTS plays it triggers that preset via dfp automation port, and in case DTS drops out it triggers analog or SDDS preset back (depending what you have).  |  IP: Logged Mike B.

I don’t have a link but if you can’t find this tech note send me a PM and I’ll get you a copy.  |  IP: Logged Adam Martin I'm not even gonna point out the irony.
