XAOC 1973 Expander Module
Product Information
- Product Name: Zadar Expander Module
- Model: 1973
- Manufacturer: Xaoc Devices
- Website: www.xaocdevices.com
The Zadar Expander Module, also known as Nin, is a simple but highly useful expansion module designed to work with the Zadar quadruple envelope generator module. It features manual gates and assignable control voltage inputs for each of Zadar’s channels. The expander also unlocks an additional menu page on Zadar, allowing for the assignment of voltage controlled parameters for each channel.
Before installing the Nin module, make sure that pre-2019 Zadar units have been updated to firmware rev. 2.0. The firmware update package can be downloaded from the Xaoc Devices website. For installation assistance or any doubts, contact Xaoc Devices support at support@xaocdevices.com.
Product Usage Instructions
- Locate the expansion header 1 on the back of the Zadar module.
- Connect the Nin ribbon connector 2 to the expansion header, ensuring that the red stripe or mark on the connector points toward the white dot printed next to the header. Connecting the cable in the wrong way will not cause damage but will prevent proper operation of the expander.
- Once the modules are properly connected, place them back in your case and secure them using the provided screws. Plug Zadar’s power connector into the busboard.
- If prompted, follow the Zadar calibration procedure steps.
Note: Be cautious not to confuse the power connector with the expansion cable, as doing so may void the warranty.
