AES In: These four BNC jacks accept AES3id digital audio pairs at 48 kHz 
sample rate. Channels are selected as AES 1-8. 

 

SDI: The two cages provided accept SFP modules compatible with SDI coaxial or 

optical signals. Single or dual transceiver arrangements are possible. A software 
license must be installed for an SFP port to function. 

Analog Inputs: This DB-25 female connectors a10dBu broadcast level 
balanced audio. Tascam pinout cables may be used, and can be purchased 
Wohler Sales.

 

Analog Outputs: These male XLR connectors provide two balanced analog 
outputs: 

Left

 

and 

Right

. The source of these signals is the mix of audio as 

monitored by the internal speakers. 

 

Channel Displays 

Display information for each channel strip is shown in Figure 2-3 below.

Activity Meters: The activity bargraph meter’s 10-segments provide a quick 
indication of signal presence. A floating peak bar above an average level stacked bar 
are shown. The meter left/right position(s) also indicates the Mix Assignments. Left 
and right meters are displayed when a mono source channel is being sent to both sides 
of the speakers, headphones and Line Outputs. 
Mute:  When a channel is muted, the entire display is inverted for reverse video, with 

labels and icons becoming black. 
Strip Labels:  Two lines of text can be used to identify the audio source by name, 
channel number, or other information.  

 

Default labels are shown in the first example above; generic text in the second.  

 

Five or six upper case letters or numbers will typically fit on each line. Since text 

character widths vary, the exact number of characters displayed can vary. The right 
edge may get cut off if very wide characters are entered.  

 

Lower case text characters are shown as smaller capital letters (small caps) to allow 
more characters to be displayed.
