Screens

Channel Configuration Screens  

1.  — Figure 16 is a graphic representations of the amplifier's output 

CHANNEL CONFIGURATION. Inputs (Q) are from Q-SYS, outputs A–D 
(E–H not shown) show the amplifier channels and their configuration. 

2.  Text indicating how many channels, and the output configuration. 

For possible configurations refer to the Q-SYS help for the 
amplifier components.

3.  Status of the amplifier and Q-SYS design indicating the design and 

amp are in sync.

Routable MIC/LINE Inputs

— Figure 17 shows the Routable MIC/LINE INPUTS screen for channels 1–4, 
(channels 5–8 not shown) which displays the status of the physical MIC/LINE 
INPUTS for the Q models. 

This screen is not available on the Qn model amplifiers.

 

1.  Input channels are identified numerically, 1–4 (and 5–8 not shown)

2. 

 nput Level

 – is the Peak Input Level (dBFS) and is the same as displayed in 

the Q-SYS Mic/Line Input component.

3. 

Iuted

 – when illuminated indicates that the Input is muted for the associated 

channel. This is controlled by the Mute button on the Q-SYS Designer 
Mic/Line Input component. 

Input channels cannot be muted from the 

amplifier interface.

4. 

 lip

 – indicators illuminate when the input to the Mic/Line Input component is too high. Adjust the Preamp Gain on 

the Mic/Line Input component in Q-SYS Designer.

5. 

M12

 – phantom power (+12V) is available for microphones (condenser) requiring the power. You can turn the 

phantom power on/off in the Mic/Line Input component in Q-SYS Designer.

Status Screen

Refer to — Figure 18

1. 

DTV  T

  – the hostname (network name) of the amplifier. A default 

name is given at the factory, similar to the example. You may change 
the name in the Q-SYS Configurator.

2. 

DTS NA

 – the name of the Q-SYS design currently running on 

the amplifier. The amplifier must be contained in a running design 
to operate.

3. 

SRTRAS

 – displays the current status of the amplifier both in text 

and color. The following is a list of possible status colors, and some 
example conditions.

• 

PK

 – green – audio is good, hardware is good.

• 

 ompromised

 – orange – audio is good but a redundancy mechanism is active (one LAN down but the other is still 

up) or a non-fatal hardware problem exists (fan speed, high temperature, low AC voltage, output load, amplifier is in 
Protect mode, etc.)

• 

Fault

 – red – audio is not passing, or hardware is malfunctioning or mis-configured (amplifier power off, audio 

streams broken, amplifier fault, loudspeaker short circuit, etc.)

• 

 nitializing

 – blue – In the process of initialization, and design start. Audio is not passed.
