MODEL 207

eSPORTS CONSOLE

Production With Dim

When the mode is configured for Production 

with Dim, the unit will function in a manner 

very similar to the Production mode. The 

difference is that the headphone output 

channels will dim (reduce in level) when-

ever either or both the main and talkback 

functions are active. This is provided for 

applications where the headphone outputs 

are being connected to inputs on an audio 

power amplifier or a set of amplified speak-

ers. The dim action can help prevent acous-

tical feedback and/or sonic interference  

from loudspeakers associated with the 

Model 207.

System – Button Backlight Intensity

Choices are 

Low

 and 

High

.

The caps (top surfaces) of the two pushbut-

ton switches are able to be lit using internal 

LEDs, one red and one green. When they 

light and with what color depends on the 

configuration of the Model 207 and the cur-

rent operating condition. The intensity of 

these LEDs can be adjusted to perform op-

timally in relation to the amount of ambient 

light present in the Model 207’s location.

System – Underglow Intensity

Choices are 

Off

Low

Medium

, and 

High

.

Two sets of blue LEDs will illuminate the  

surface directly below the left and right  

sides of the Model 207’s enclosure. This  

“underglow” is provided strictly as an “image” 

feature but may also help a user locate the 

Model 207 when used in a dark area. Three 

configuration choices allow the intensity of  

the LEDs to be selected. In addition, the 

LEDs can be disabled.

talkback button is pressed the red LED will 

flash four times as a warning, indicating that 

the function has been disabled.

System – Operating Mode

Choices are 

On-Air

Production

, and  

Production with Dim

.

The system mode configures the overall  

manner in which the Model 207 operates.  

Specifically, it determines how the Dante  

main output channel operates vis-à-vis the 

talkback function. Understanding how each 

specifically impacts Model 207 operation  

will help ensure the desired operation is ob-

tained and that maximum usability will occur.

On-Air

When selected to the on-air mode, audio 

on the Dante main output channel will typi-

cally mute whenever the talkback function is 

active. The on-air mode should be selected 

for all on-air broadcast applications when 

it’s imperative that the “on-air” audio signal 

be muted whenever on-air talent uses the 

talkback function to communicate with pro-

duction personnel.

Production

When the system mode is set for production, 

the audio signal on the Dante main output 

channel is never muted in response to talk-

back activity. The main button’s function  

operates independently of the talkback 

button’s function. This mode allows the 

Dante main output channel to be used, for 

example, as an additional talkback output. 

In this way the Dante main output chan-

nel and the talkback output channel can be 

used separately and not impact each other. 

This also allows both the main and talkback 

pushbuttons to be used simultaneously. 

When selected for the correct application, 

the production mode can prove to be very 

useful. But it’s not appropriate for on-air use!
