2.1.5. Alphanumeric keypad.
Standard 12-keys alphanumeric keypad that enables the user to perform many functions,
including the following:
-
Enter a number when you wish to make a call through the ISDN interface
-
Enter numbers and letters when you want to make a call through the IP interface, or
when you create or edit phone book entries.
To change between different letters of the alphabet associated with the same key, press the key
repeatedly until the desired letter appears, just as you would with a cell phone.
NOTE: The * key lets you switch between lower and upper case and only numbers. The 1 and #
keys allow you to create the special characters (among there are @ and “.”) and the 0 key
allows you to create the number “0” and the space character.
2.1.6. VU meters.
Two stereo monitoring VU meters. They can be configured in 3 different modes: as stereo input
signal & stereo output signal for each one of the two channels, or as two independent mono
signals with their corresponding input and output levels (both channels simultaneously).
The serigraphed lettering on the front panel identifies them, from left to right, as “CH1 RX“, “CH1
TX“, “CH2 RX“ and “CH2 TX“. If a stereo connection is made, and vu meters are configured this
way, “CH1 RX“ and “CH1 TX“ represent the L and R transmitted signals, while “CH2 RX“ and
“CH2 TX“ correspond to the L and R received signals, corresponding to channel 1 or 2
depending on the vu meters mode selected. For further information, see section “3.3.
VUMETERS menu” of this manual.
Each of the two VU meters is composed of 14 LEDs, of which the top three are red, the fourth
yellow (representing +0dB) and the rest green. Each one of the 14 LEDs represents 2dB; the
complete scale of each VU meter ranges from +6dB to -20dB.
2.1.7. Communication status control information.
There are two identical sections offering communication status information; each is associated
with a different communication channel (1 or 2). The buttons on the left correspond to
communication channel 1 and the buttons on the right correspond to communication channel 2.
Each section is composed of three elements.
-
CALL button: pressing it allows you to make a call. For further information, see the
QUICK OPERATING GUIDE section of this manual.
-
SYNC LED: to indicate the connection status. This LED has three statuses:
•
Off: no connection.
•
Red: trying to synchronize.
•
Green: connected and synchronized.
-
ON AIR button: enables full duplex communication, connecting the signal from the
selected input (analog or digital) with the output of the defined communication interface.
