PR&E
Tie each switch to its logic counterpart (the On switch goes to the On (-) input, pin 9; the Off switch goes to
Off (-) input, pin 3, and so forth). The on/off lamps are tied to their Tally outputs (On lamp to On Tally, pin
11; Off lamp to Off Tally, pin 5).
To activate a mic panel
●
Set the Function parameter to CR MIC, CR MIC TLK SRC, or STU MIC to set the source as a
microphone.
●
Enable the Logic parameter (the Logic Active LED is lit).
●
A logic cable must physically connect from the Channel Logic I/O to the mic panel.
You can use the mic control panel to
●
Turn the channel on and off.
●
Receive channel on and off tallies.
●
Activate the cough feature (momentarily mutes the audio from the Program buses)
●
(On four-button panels) Talk to the Control Room or Talk to the Studio.
Turning the channel on mutes the room monitor output, turns on the room warning light logic, and lights the
On button on the mic control panel.
Line Logic
Line logic is used when the source’s Function LEDs are all off (signifying a line input device) or when the
Telco 1 LED or Telco 2 LED is lit or when both Telco LEDs blink. Blinking Telco LEDs indicate the console
has Link Plus activation, allowing four sources to be set as Telco 3, 4, 5, and 6. The number of blinks
indicates which Link Plus Telco is set on that channel: three blinks for Telco 3, four blinks for Telco 4, five
blinks for Telco 5, and six blinks for Telco 6. A slight pause separates each set of blinks.
When the Logic Active LED is lit and the Function is line or any Telco, the logic functions for pins 2, 5, 8,
and 11 differ from those used with mic logic. Pin 2 is a remote cue switch input that can be triggered by a
computer playback system or by a remote studio or producer cue switch. Pin 2 puts the channel’s audio onto
the cue bus. This feature can also be used on a fader slot covered by a blank panel, since this function does
not require a fader panel to be present. This feature allows a dedicated cue audio input (or even a talkback
audio source) to connect to the console without consuming a fader channel, if there are blank panels on the
console.
Pin 8 is the Ready command used by peripheral devices to both turn off the channel at the end of an event
and, when Off LED Ctrl is lit, to control the channel’s off button illumination, which can indicate one of these
scenarios:
●
The peripheral device is not ready (the off button is unlit).
●
The peripheral device is cued and ready to play (the off button is lit solid).
●
The event has played or has ended (the off button flashes).
Pins 11 and 5 output start and stop pulses (220 msec contact closures) so that a peripheral device can be
started or stopped as the channel is turned on and off. The Start Pulse is output on pin 11, and the Stop
Pulse is output on pin 5. Pin 5 is the relay common for these two momentary contact closure outputs. The
Pulse Select setting affects the behavior of the pulses and sets whether a single pulse or multiple pulses
are output when you press the channel on and off buttons.
Note: When the Tally Output Mode is active (Option 2 LED is lit), the logic outputs on pins
11 and 5 are On Tally and Off Tally instead of Start Pulse and Stop Pulse, and the Pulse
Select function is not active. To toggle in and out of Tally Output Mode, press Option +
Logic Active. When this mode is active, it affects all eight channels on that DSP card.
