Slot 07: Audio Output B Controls
The Audio Output B Controls module is a volume/tone controller built into slot 07 of
the C2N-DAP8 surround sound processor. The C2N-DAP8 provides three outputs
for analog audio: one CAT5 output and two left/right RCA outputs labeled
A
and
B
.
Output
A
flows directly from the processor's internal Analog Audio Switch without
additional processing, while output
B
is passed through the Audio Output B Controls
volume/tone controller. The symbol is shown below.
Audio Output B Controls
Digitals
The <
Mute-On
> and <
Mute_Relay_On
> inputs cuts audio for as long as their
respective signal remains high. The <
Loudness-On
> input activates the loudness
function for as long as the input remains high, while the <
Mono-On
> input switches
the audio setting from stereo to mono.
Analogs
The <
Volume
> analog input sets the volume level from 0% to 100%, which
corresponds to a gain range of –80 to +20dB. The other analog inputs control bass,
treble and balance settings relative to the 50% mark. That is, a <
Balance
> input with
a value of 50% results in even distribution of audio between the left and right
speakers (0% = full left; 100% = full right). Likewise, 50% indicates a neutral level
for <
Treble
> and <
Bass
>.
NOTE:
The symbols for the surround sound processor’s Surround Sound Decoder
symbol, Slot 08; the Speaker Settings symbol, Slot 09 Sub-Slot 1; the Full
Parametric EQ Controls symbol, Slot 09 Sub-Slot 2; and the Graphic EQ Controls
symbol, Slot 09 Sub-Slot 3, are very complex. Crestron strongly recommends using
its Digital Audio Tools (DAT) software to configure these modules. However, they
are described in “Appendix: Advanced Programming Symbols” beginning on page
52, for those advanced programmers who wish to program them in SIMPL
Windows.
