DSP Test Mode – Use to test and confirm connections during installation. Press
Channel
Down to enter this mode from any other mode. If the Changes Pending LED is blinking, the current
parameters are stored to nonvolatile memory before entering this mode. The Active Channel Display
number blinks to indicate the DSP Test Mode is active.
While this mode is active, all fader controls on the eight channels on that DSP card are locked out. All
Program buttons are assigned, all channels are set for the A Source, and channel levels are set to
nominal. One group of parameters is applied to all channels. Press
Channel Up and
Channel
Down to step through the channels, turning the active channel On and turning all other channels Off.
To exit this mode, press
Channel Down to return to Parameter Set Mode. Press Store to
exit to Sleep Mode. Section 5 – “NetWave Servicing” gives additional details on the DSP Test Mode and
other modes available to test control panels.
Setup Control Summary
Use the setup controls (Figure 2-31) to view, set, and store the parameters for each A and B Source on
each fader channel. You would normally use these controls in Parameter Set Mode, where the active
parameter settings for each channel and source appear as you press
Channel Up and
Channel
Down to step through the eight fader channels and their A and B sources.
The Channel Display shows which channel (1 to 8) and source (the A or B source LED is lit) is the active
channel source. That channel strip’s A or B label also blinks to indicate it is the active channel source. On
Dual Router panels, both source LEDs light, since a Dual Router only has one source (network audio). The
current parameters for the active channel source appear using the parameter LEDs and trim displays.
In Parameter Set Mode, changing any parameter causes the Changes Pending LED to blink. After you
change the parameters on all channels, press Store to save the updated parameter settings to nonvolatile
memory. The changes are also automatically saved to nonvolatile memory when the panel automatically
returns to Sleep Mode after timing out from five minutes of no button activity.
Note: Changes to parameter settings immediately affect the active channel so that the input selection,
mode selection, function settings, logic settings, and level trim settings can be actively monitored
during parameter setup. Use caution when changing parameters on consoles that are on-air.
Here is a summary of the functions for each setup button, LED, and display:
●
Store Button — This button is multifunctional:
•
From Sleep Mode, press this button to wake up the DSP panel to Parameter Set Mode.
•
In Parameter Set Mode, press this button to store all channel sources to nonvolatile
memory and return the controls to Sleep Mode when the Changes Pending LED is
blinking. If the LED is not blinking, pressing Store just returns the controls to Sleep Mode.
•
In Parameter Copy Mode, press this button to store the parameters to the active channel source.
●
Changes Pending LED — This LED blinks when at least one parameter has been changed in the
dynamic memory but has not yet been saved to nonvolatile memory.
•
In Parameter Set Mode, press Store to turn off this LED, saving the parameters, and
return the DSP card to Sleep Mode.
•
In Parameter Copy Mode, press Store to save the parameter changes on that channel
and turn off the LED. Moving to another channel source turns the LED on again.
●
Channel Up
& Channel Down
Buttons — In Parameter Set Mode, these two buttons step
through the eight channels’ A and B sources showing each one’s parameters. In Parameter Copy Mode,
the two buttons also step through the channel sources, but the parameters are not recalled since this
