Pre-fade level
When supported by the transmitter, the transmitter battery level is indicated by
the color of the battery icon: Green = over 50%, Yellow = over 20%, Orange =
over 10%, Red = less than 10%. Whenever the transmitter battery level infor -
mation is not supported by the transmitter, the icon is black.
Unislot Receivers
Configuration of unislot receivers is done on the receivers themselves, not from
the 688; therefore, the Receiver Details screen is not available for unislot re -
ceivers.
Using SuperSlot Receivers
When the 688 is powered on, the SL-6 will power receivers automatically, and
attached SuperSlot receivers will boot up with their panel buttons locked.
i
Sound Devices recommends, if the 688 is powered on, you do not power down at-
tached SuperSlot receivers. If SuperSlot receivers are powered down manually (by
unlocking the receivers’ front panel buttons), the receivers will not be recognized
until they are powered on manually and the 688 is rebooted.
SuperSlot receivers can be configured from the 688 user interface. Detailed
information for each attached SuperSlot receiver is displayed on the 688 via a
Receiver Details screen. Adjustments to SuperSlot receivers may be made from
this screen.
The screen’s title will show the type or model of the receiver. Based on your
receiver, information on screen could vary; refer to the receiver manufacturer’s
documentation provided with your receiver(s) for more information.
