DENTIFICATION
There are several audio I/O sub-modules available for the V1682. The module fitment can be
identified from the front panel. Modules are available with analogue or AES inputs and outputs, or
m mixture e.g. analogue inputs, digital outputs. The module type is shown in the
STATUS > Sub-
Mod
menu.
Sub-Mod
Module Type
m
AI/O
Module has analogue inputs and outputs
m
DI/O+DO
Module has AES inputs and o auxiliary AES outputs
AI+DO+DO
Module has analogue inputs, and AES o auxiliary AES
outputs
DI+AO
Module has AES inputs, and analogue outputs
m
None
There is no audio sub-module fitted
It should be noted that the audio multiplexing and de-multiplexing facilities are available irrespective
of the module fitted.
This information is also echoed in the
STATUS > Mod I/Ps
and
Mod O/Ps
menus.

TATUSES
The status of all inputs (other than analogue) may be checked within the
STATUS
menu.
The SDI input can be monitored under
STATUS > SDI I/P
, which will report on of three things :
Display Meaning
IP FAIL
No SDI input detected
IP 625
3
625/50 SDI input detected
IP 525
3
525/60 SDI input detected
The selected AES input may be verified (an audio input from an embedded audio group also counts
as an AES input) in the
STATUS > AES A
and
AES B
menu displays, which may either display
No
AES A
or
AES A OK
. It should be noted that, if an analogue input is selected, both of these
statuses will show an AES failure.
The AES reference status may be checked in
STATUS > AES Ref
, this will report either
RF AES
3
or
RF AES
±
.

The V1682 has an optional second SDI input. It can be determined from the front panel whether
this input is present or not in the
STATUS > SDI I/P2
menu. This will report
SDI 2 OK
if the second
SDI input is available, or
SDI 2 NA
if it is not.
For information on how to change the second SDI input option see Sec. 2.5.2.
