Volume Mute Examples:
BCS Command
Action
CL0O124VMT
Mutes Output 124 on Level 0
CL0O25 84VMT
Mutes Outputs 25 and 84 on Level 0
CL0O2:8VMT
Mutes Outputs 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8 on Level 0
Removing Mute
Un-mute returns an output to its previous un-muted volume level. (Entering any
other Volume command will also un-mute the signal; see the Note below).
To un-mute an output,
enter the Volume Un-mute command below. Replace
the “
#
”s with the level and output number(s).
CL#O#VUT
Volume Un-mute Examples:
BCS Command
Action
CL0O113VUT
Un-mutes Output 113 on Level 0
CL0O18 59VUT
Un-mutes Outputs 18 and 59 on Level 0
Note:
When a Mute command is followed by any Volume command other than
Un-mute, the volume returns to its previous un-muted state and then the new
command is applied. For example, if Output 1 is set to 5 dB and a Mute
command is entered (
CL0O1VMT
), followed later by a Volume Relative
command (
CL0O1VR10T
), the volume would return to 5 dB and then increase
by 1 dB to a volume level of 6 dB (the original dB level plus the additional
1 dB).
6.3 Verifying Volume Status
Note:
Multiple levels or outputs cannot be entered in volume status commands.
To verify the volume status of a specific output,
enter the Verify Volume
Status command below. Replace the “
#
”s with the level and output number.
SL#O#VT
The volume setting of the output will display in parentheses ( ), even if the
output is not receiving a signal. The decibel amount in the result is specified as a
decimal number to the tenth place without the decimal point. For example, if the
result is -480, the decibel level is at -48 or if the result is 65, the decibel level is
at 6.5 (see page 6-1). If the status result is
(M)
, the volume is muted.
