Front Panel Controls and Indicators
The following controls and status indicators are provided on the front panel:
• Input – Mitto is factory set to auto sense the input as DVI or VGA. The detected input type will
illuminate green. If your input is HDMI, which uses an HDMI to DVI adaptor, the DVI input LED
will illuminate green.
Note: If your Mitto installation is fairly permanent and you do not anticipate your input
source changing, use this control to set the input source to DVI or VGA rather than using the
auto sensing feature.
• Std (Standard) – This control allows you to choose the standard. You can choose to operate
in the NTSC standard at 60 Hz, or the PAL standard at 50 Hz. The currently selected output
standard (NTSC or PAL) will illuminate green.
• Mode – This control allows you to choose the mode. The currently selected mode (SD, HD, 3G)
will illuminate green.

• HD Format (BEM-1 and BEM-1F Only) – If running in HD, this control allows you to choose
the HD format. The currently selected HD format will illuminate green.
Choose between: 1080i and 720p
• Video Gain – The video gain control adjusts the overall gain level for the video output. For
more controls than just the overall level, see the Proc Menu in the complete control system
accessible by using the BrightEye Mac/PC software.
• Audio – Provides adjustment of audio gain and monitoring of audio levels.
Gain – Audio gain control is used to set the audio level. The front panel LED illuminates
green when the control is at unity. It illuminates orange when the control is set higher or
lower than unity.
Level – The Audio level indicator reflects the level of the audio being routed to output
channels 1 and 2. If the level is within the peaking threshold, it displays green. The indicator
displays yellow if the level is approaching the peaking threshold, and red if it exceeds the
peaking threshold.
• In (Input) – The Input indicator will light green if you have a valid DVI, VGA or HDMI input
connected from a computer.
• Ref (Reference) – The Reference indicator will light green when a valid reference is present
and locked.
Note: An external reference is not required for operation.
