light all the LEDs on the bar graph. These controls can be factory programmed to track one another
automatically in room combining applications.
The second type push button remote is the Ivie RB-1. It is a simple, less expensive, up/down push button.
It consists of a single-gang, black anodized, wall plate containing "Up" and "Down" push buttons,
three resistors and a terminal block for wiring connections. Each push of a button increments or decrements
the volume level by one step. Several can be paralleled together for remote level control capability
from more than one location. In order for the RB-1 to function, the 1026 must have its software
“Remote Button” control enabled. The 1026 provides the necessary logic for RB-1’s to track each
other in room combining applications.
Making Custom Up/Down Buttons
As illustrated in Figure 10, below, two push buttons and three 3.3k Ω, 1/4 watt resistors, are needed for
a push button remote. The resistors are connected across RMT voltage and ground, forming a voltage
divider. All power required by the remotes is supplied by the 1026. The RMT voltage supplied by the
1026 is current limited and must be used only for the remotes. The RMT voltage cannot be used to
power any other type of external device, except LEDs.

Presets can be activated remotely on the 1026 via a switch connected to the appropriate terminals on
the rear panel. Presets can also be activated via the 1026 software. There are sixteen presets associated
with the mixer section of the 1026 which are not mutually exclusive. In other words, more than one of
