Button Backlight Intensity
As previously discussed, the main and talk-
back buttons will light green or red depending
on the activity of the Model 207. A configura-
tion choice allows the intensity of the LEDs to
be selected. In most cases the High setting
will be appropriate. But in environments with
little ambient light or within camera view the
Low choice might be preferred.
Underglow Intensity
Included in the Model 207 are LEDs, blue
in color, that when lit shine out of the left
and right bottom surface of the enclosure.
They provide a “mood” effect and offer an
“underglow” reminiscent of some custom
automobile lighting. A configuration choice al-
lows the LED intensity to be selected as well
as being able to disable the LEDs from light-
ing at all. Once a choice has been selected
the LEDs will always follow that setting; the
LED intensity will never change in response
to a Model 207 operating condition.
Headphone Output
The three rotary potentiometers (pots), locat-
ed on the Model 207’s front panel, allow level
adjustment of the Dante audio input chan-
nels, stereo line input, and, if selected, side-
tone (local microphone) audio signal as they
are sent to the 2-channel headphone output.
How the potentiometers function will depend
on the selected audio sources along with the
configuration of the routing and controls. Re-
fer to the Model 207 Configuration section of
this guide for details. Three routing and nine
control modes are available and determine
the specific performance. With that much flex-
ibility it’s important that users are educated
as to how the controls are functioning.
It’s possible that Dante receiver (input) chan-
nels 3 and 4 will be configured such that they
route directly to the left and right headphone
output channels. In this configuration the
rotary controls will not impact the output lev-
els of audio content being received on input
channels 3 and 4. The level of those signals
will have to be controlled at their source. This
ability is provided primarily for applications
when white noise or other masking audio sig-
nals need to be sent to the headphone output
channels at a fixed level.
Another configuration choice selects when
sidetone audio will be sent to the headphone
output. Sidetone audio can be present when
the main function is active, the talkback func-
tion is active, or when the main and talkback
functions are both active.
Users should find the headphone audio
quality to be excellent, with high maximum
output level and low distortion. Analog
audio signals do not pass directly through
the potentiometers. The position of each po-
tentiometer is recognized by the Model 207’s
processor which then adjusts the appropriate
signal source or sources within the digital
domain. The potentiometers are “push-in/
push-out” type which allow their associated
knobs to be in the “out” position when adjust-
ment is desired and placed in the “in” position
when protection from an unwanted change
is beneficial.
Technical Notes
IP Address Assignment
By default, the Model 207’s Ethernet inter-
face will attempt to automatically obtain an
IP address and associated settings using
DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Proto-
col). If a DHCP server is not detected an IP
address will automatically be assigned us-
ing the link-local protocol. This protocol is
known in the Microsoft® world as Automatic
Private IP Addressing (APIPA). It is also
