2 Installation
Module Placement
The 12 (or 20) Input module positions can have
any combination or order of Input modules, Mic
Preamps, Remote Line Selectors (RLS) or custom
remote panels installed. The remaining console po-
sitions are fixed. The Timer Control, Mic Preamp,
Monitor, Output and the two optional Telco mod-
ules must be positioned as shown in the illustra-
tion. However, the two Telco positions may alter-
nately have Input modules installed in them. The
RLS position, between the Monitor and Output
modules, can only be used for either an RLS or a
Mic Preamp.
The Meter Panel
Two Bargraph meters provide level monitoring
for Pgm-1 and either Pgm-2 or Pgm-3 with mo-
mentary Cue bus selection. The meter scale (VU
or PPM) is set via DIP switch on the Output mod-
ule. The cue/talkback speaker, a clock and event
timer are also on the panel.
To simplify console installation, logic cable wir-
ing diagrams for specific peripheral equipment are
available from Harris Corporation. Custom engrav-
ing for the button caps and colored fader knobs
are also available. See Chapter 7,
Accessories
, for de-
tails.
INSTALLATION NOTE:
Do not locate the con-
sole near intense electromagnetic hum fields, such
as those produced by large power transformers
and by audio amplifiers which use inexpensive
power transformers operating in or near satura-
tion. Strong electromagnetic fields may impair the
performance of AirWave Digital and neighboring
equipment. Audio cables must also be routed to
achieve maximum practical distance from all AC
power mains wiring.
MAINFRAME CONFIGURATION
AirWave Digital continues PR&E’s design phi-
losophy of positioning the input modules in the
physical center of the mainframe. This gives the
operator equal reach to peripheral equipment lo-
cated to the sides of the console.
