.
This section of “Monitoring Configuration” submenu lets you choose how the four keys under
the display of the
Studio Room
Control and Monitoring section shall work, either in “
Mixer
” or
“
Exclusive
”. If the option “Mixer” is selected, the output bus associated with “Studio” monitor
and headphones will act as a summing bus and therefore may be more than one of the four
keys simultaneously activated, thus mixing the signals corresponding to each of the four keys
on the studio monitor and headphones. On the other hand, in the “Exclusive” mode, this output
bus will not act as a summing bus and therefore may not be more than one key activated at any
given time (this effectively means that by pressing any of the four keys, the previously activated
one will be disconnected from the summing bus and replaced by the new selection).
In this section you can also allocate the GPO physical outputs associated with Studio “OFF AIR”
green light (indicates that there are no sources, typically microphones, activated in the studio
room) and “ON AIR” red light (indicates that there are no sources, typically microphones,
activated in the studio room). You can choose between the opto-coupled GPO´s (1 to 8) or the
contact relay GPO´s (9 to 12): these last ones are recommended. See section 2.2.2.1 of this
manual.

Control and Monitoring section shall work, either in “

and headphones will act as a summing bus and therefore may be more than one of the four
