13: AES3 Configuration Screen
a.
Status LEDs
: Eight RGB (multi-colour) LEDs which illuminate green to confirm the
presence of a valid AES3 input signal in the case of the inputs, and other colours to
indicate the selected sample rate in the case of the outputs
12.
Inputs:
16
balanced “local” analogue audio inputs to the CDC five, on XLR sockets. These may
be the sources for any input channel or insert return in the same way as the remote stagebox
inputs. They may be used for connection of FOH sound sources, FX processing, talkback mic,
etc. Characteristics are identical to the inputs on the stageboxes.
b.
48 V LEDs:
16 red LEDs; illuminate when 48 V phantom power is enabled at the
associated input connector.
13.
Outputs:
Eight balanced “local” analogue audio outputs from the CDC five, on XLR male
connectors. Any output channel, insert send or direct out may be routed to these, to enable the
connection of FX processors, recorders, etc. The talkback/comms output from the CDC five
may also be available here; this is configured in software via the MENU Screen. Characteristics
are identical to the outputs on the stageboxes.
c.
MUTE LEDs
: Each analogue output connector has an adjacent red LED. This illuminates
when the
physical output is ‘hard’ muted by the internal relay, either during power-up,
when the MUTE ALL button is pressed, or if a ‘hard’ mute is applied to an output from a
channel ON button.
14.
Fan
: For internal cooling; do not block. The fan speed is controlled automatically and will vary
according to the internal ambient temperature.
