DESCRIPTION
4.1 Front panel
4.1.1 Remote Control RJ12 (1)
This socket is a serial RS232 interface in the RJ12 connector
format which can alternately be used for the RS232 interface on
the back panel.
It is offered to connect a VIP
digital
installed in the rack to your
PC. Thus, you will always have a quick access to permanently
installed units, using a laptop for example.
Contact your dealer for an adapter on a 9-pin D-sub connector
as an accessory to connect PCs with the traditional serial
interface sockets.
All functions are identical with the
Remote Control D-Sub
connector on the back panel.
Refer to
PinOut Table
in the chapter TECHNICAL DRAWINGS/DESCRIPTIONS for an assignment of
the connector.
4.1.2 Level
Indicators
(2)
Two bent LED instruments each with 9 segments can be found
here.
The upper instrument optionally indicates the input or output
level of the processor. The
Meter Mode
menu item can be used
in the Enter mode for a transfer; the current type of display
(input or output) is shown by 2 LEDs below the instrument.
There is a reference-level mark in between the 6. and 7.
segment (level tendency meter).
The lower LED instrument shows the level reduction performed
by the dynamic functions of the processor in relation to the input
level. The 0 dB position of this instrument is on the right side (all
LEDs off).
On the right side of the two LED instruments there are two other individual LEDs:
-
NT
(network technology) will light up when the unit is controlled in real time by your PC via the
VIP
remote
software.
-
Ph
will light up when the phantom power of the selected input is activated.
