The RU-VCA is part of the group of RACK-UP products from Radio Design Labs. RACK-UPs feature the advanced circuitry for which RDL products are known,
combined with accessible user-friendly controls and displays. The ultra compact design permits high-density installations, with three products mounted in a single rack
unit. Optional brackets permit mounting a RACK-UP module above, below, or in front of any flat surface!
APPLICATION: The RU-VCA2A is a full-featured studio-quality dual-channel audio attenuator module for local and/or remote control of
balanced or unbalanced line-level sources. The RU-VCA6A has all the features of an RU-VCA2A with four additional audio channels for
level control of surround sound (5.1) or six individual analog audio channels. Each module can be remote controlled from a single or
multiple locations. Rear-panel terminals provide flexible control options using a variety of RDL remote controls or OEM equipment.
Audio levels are controlled in 0.5 dB steps using noiseless zero-crossing digital attenuators for optimum reliability, precise tracking and
long-term click-free service. Exceptional wide-band low-noise performance makes the RU-VCA2A and RU-VCA6A suited to level
adjustment in the most demanding applications. Rear-panel inputs and outputs may each be wired balanced or unbalanced.
The RU-VCA2A and RU-VCA6A power up in one of two operating modes set by a rear-panel switch.
MOM (momentary) Mode
In the MOM (momentary) mode, audio level is controlled by momentary pushbuttons or pulses. Remote terminals and front-panel
pushbuttons are provided for up and down ramping control. If either button is held in, the audio will ramp automatically. If a button is
pulsed (< 0.5 second), the audio will increment one step. The time of both the UP and DOWN ramps is individually adjustable on the front
panel. Pushing remote UP and DOWN buttons simultaneously, or pressing the front-panel GO TO PRESET button, returns the audio to a
preset level. The preset level is stored by adjusting the desired level using the UP and DOWN buttons, then pressing and holding the
front-panel PRESET button for 3 seconds. A rear-panel switch sets the audio power-up level to either the preset level or the last level
setting used. Multiple remote control locations are possible in the mode. External control pulses may MOM be either of positive polarity or
pulled-to-ground (open-collector).
0 to 10 VDC Mode
In the 0 to 10 VDC mode the preset function is disabled and the audio level is controlled by a remote 10 k linear taper pot or by 0 to 10
Vdc. A single remote control location is possible using a remote 10 k pot.
In both operating modes, two separate 0 to 10 Vdc outputs are provided. The linear RAMP output drives the level display on RDL remote
controls; the EQ RAMP output is used to control an automatic RDL Loudness Equalizer (see ST-LEQ1). A front-panel 10-LED string
display indicates the relative audio level. Control expansion is possible using the EXTERNAL CONTROL DATA jacks. One module can
be set as a MASTER module to control the level of one or more additional RU-VCA2A or RU-VCA6A modules set to the SLAVE mode.

ST-LEQ1 data sheet for details.
NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to
comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant
to part 15 of the FCC Rule. These limits are designed to
provide reasonable protection against harmful interference
in a residential installation. The equipment generates,
uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not
installed and used in accordance with the instructions,
may cause harmful interference to radio communications.
However, there is no guarantee that interference will not
occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does
cause harmful interference to radio or television reception,
which can be determined by turning the equipment off an
on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the
interference by one or more of the following measures:
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna
Increase the separation between the equipment
and receiver
Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit
different from that which the receiver is
connected.
Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV
technician for help.

MASTER/SLAVE CONNECTIONS
A VCA module set as MASTER (switch 3) is able to control the level on multiple modules. The EXTERNAL CONTROL
DATA OUT jack provides data to control additional modules. Connect the OUT jack to the IN jack of the first adjacent
module. Connect the OUT jack of the first adjacent module to the IN jack of the second adjacent module. Connect
additional modules in the same manner. Each connected module must be set to SLAVE mode (switch 3) as shown.
OPERATION
(Note: The Power Up CTRL switch must be set to MOM to activate the front-panel buttons.)
LEVEL ADJUSTMENT: Momentarily press the UP or DOWN button to step the level 0.5 dB. Press and hold to
ramp the level up or down.
RAMP TIME: Adjust the TIME controls for the desired ramp rate. (Note: TIME "-" is fastest; TIME"+" is slowest)
GO TO PRESET: Press this button to return the audio level to the stored preset value.
STORE PRESET LEVEL:
1] Set the audio level to the desired volume using the front-panel (or external) UP and DOWN buttons.
2] Press and hold the GO TO PRESET button (3 seconds) until the front-panel level LED flashes.
OBSERVE AUDIO LEVEL: The relative audio level is displayed on the LED string display. The level is displayed
in both the MOMentary and 0 to 10 VDC operating modes. (Note: The LED string display increments do not
directly correspond to the LED level increments on RDL remote controls.)
POWER UP SETTINGS
Before applying power, set the POWER UP switches:
1 Set to LAST if the module should power-up to the last level setting;
Set to PRESET if the module should power-up to the stored preset
level.
2 Set to MOM (momentary) if module levels are to be adjusted using
front-panel buttons or using buttons, remote controls or open-
collector pulses connected to the rear-panel UP and DN terminals.
3 Set to MASTER if this module is either operating on its own or is
intended to control the level of additional modules; Set to SLAVE if
this module is to be controlled by another module. (Note: The SLAVE
mode inactivates all front and rear panel control of the module.)
