Is this Studio Interface working?
You will need to make sure the 2101 Hub is up and running first. See Part III (The
System Hub) for details. You will need to have programmed the Hub for the
incoming Telco trunks to be used, and have created one or more Show
Configurations and one or more Studio Configurations (See Part III). Verify that the
startup screen (as described above) appears on the Studio Interface and attached
TWO (if present). Verify that send to caller audio (your mix minus(es)) from your
console appears on the left meters. If this is the case, you know that this Studio
Interface (or Telos TWO) has successfully booted up.
From a Desktop Director connected to this Studio Interface change the Director’s
mode to Talent mode using the LCD display and function buttons. See Part V (The
Desktop Director) section 2.1.2 for details.

IMPORTANT TIP!
If you are testing a studio with both a Studio Interface and an attached Telos TWO
Hybrid, you will need to use an Extended Desktop Director (Telos
part # 2001-
00072
), which has 4 rows of line buttons) or you will be unable to access hybrids 3
and 4 (the two hybrids on the Telos TWO).
