Meter Output Module
(DMTR-8; standard
DMTRS-8; optional)
Module Overview
Each D-8000 console has one of the two types of meter
output modules: a standard DMTR-8 module, which is installed
with the standard central processor module CPU-8 (described in
chapter 8), or an optional DMTRS-8, which goes with optional
CPU-8S module. Each output module drives the console’s four
pairs of left-right VU meters: PGM, AUD, AUX and SWT
(switched). The switched meter follows the SELECT switching
at the top of the module, allowing the console operator to meter
AUD, AUX and UTL (DMTR-8 module); or SEND 1, SEND
2 and UTL (DMTRS-8 module), and two digital or analog
(+4dBu balanced) external stereo line signals which may be
brought into the module on its lower DB-25 connector.
The meter output module also houses the master CUE LED
indicator. Whenever Cue is activated anywhere on the console
this LED will illuminate and the CUE signal will automatically
appear on the switched VU meter pair. When cue is de-
activated, the switched meter pair goes back to its previously
selected signal.
At the bottom of the module are the timer control buttons
(the timer display is mounted in the righthand end of the console
meterbridge):
AUTO – enables timer restart functions from programmed input
modules.
S/S – Start/Stop.
RESET - return to zero (if the timer is stopped it will hold at
zero; if it is running it will reset to zero and immediately begin
counting up).
HOLD – when held down freezes the timer display (the counter
keeps on going); when released the display catches up to the current
count.
