The PL-10 is similar to the PL-6 - i.e. is a compact mixer interface,
but has 8 rotary encoders, with LED ladder displays instead of faders,
making it possible to mix live events within the iDR system.
It’s
ideal for creating and controlling an output mix of cross-point groups.
The PL-10 can be assigned to read and adjust different mixes, as the
LED bars indicate the levels managed by the iDR unit. The unit can be
hand-held, or flange-mounted into a table or wall.
As the PL-10 has encoders rather than faders, it can respond to changes in levels made from other controllers.

- Cable : CAT5 STP
As the requirements grow at an installation, the control system can too! Start off with just the controls and display on the iDR unit then add wall mounted plates and handheld remotes wherever they are needed using our CAT5 PL-Anet cabling system. PL remotes can simply daisy chain or use the PL-Anet hub for star wiring applications.
LEDs in the system can be tri-colour status indicators [to indicate selected sources, or mutes] or they can become meters for any point in the signal flow. The LCD windows can easily be programmed to relay text information about the state of the system. You, as the designer, can customize these plug and play remotes to do exactly what the customer has been looking for.
Each PL has its own simulator in iDR system manager software so you can design and demo the system offline as it will appear when the hardware is in place.
PL-Calculator :
PL-Calculator is an Excel-based program which enables the installer to verify that a planned system with specified PL devices and interconnect distances over PL-Anet conforms to the system specification. The program is bundled together with the iDR System Manager software.
