Cough Logic Input
The COUGH LOGIC INPUT is used to connect an external user-supplied
button to activate the microphone fader’s COUGH LOGIC. This acts like a
temporary, or momentary, OFF button, in that, if the microphone is active, it
will be made inactive while the external COUGH button is being held down,
and will again activate when the COUGH button is released. If the micro-
phone is currently inactive, the button has no effect.
Talkback to CUE (TBQ) Logic Input
The TBQ LOGIC INPUT is used to connect an external user-supplied
button that enables the person activating it to talk to the operator in the Control
Room, via the console’s cue speaker. It is important to realize that, if cue is
muted for any reason, the talent voice will not be heard in the cue speaker.
ON Tally Logic Output
The ON TALLY LOGIC OUTPUT can be used to give a remote indication
of the ON status of the fader.
Line Port Functions
The line port logic functions are START, STOP, ON, OFF, and READY,
and are normally used in conjunction with local machines, such as cart
machines, CD players, etc..
Start Logic Output
When the ON BUTTON is pressed the START output causes the machine
feeding the fader to start playing.
Stop Logic Output
When the OFF BUTTON is pressed the STOP output causes the machine
feeding the fader to stop playing.
ON LOGIC INPUT
The ON LOGIC INPUT allows the machine to turn the fader ON, just as
if the ON button had been pressed on the fader.
OFF Logic Input
The OFF LOGIC INPUT allows the machine to turn the fader OFF, just
as if the OFF button had been pressed on the fader.
Ready Logic Input
Some machines may provide a ready signal to indicate that an audio cut is
cued up and ready to be played. The machine’s ready output will control the
illumination of the OFF BUTTON.
