Operation, cont’d

If the +dB and -dB LED are both lit they indicate 0 dB. Otherwise, you can determine the exact gain or attenuation using the following procedure.

1.

If one or more input LEDs are lit AND the +dB LED is lit, press and

 

release the

button repeatedly until the highest-numbered lit input

 

LED goes out. Count the button presses. In Example 4, assume a value

 

of +8 dB. It will take three presses of the

button for the Input 1 LED

 

to go out.

 

 

 

If one or more input LEDs are lit AND the -dB LED is lit, press and

 

release the

button repeatedly until the highest-numbered lit input

 

LED goes out. Count the button presses.

 

 

If the +dB LED is lit and NO input LEDs are lit, press and release the

 

button repeatedly until the +dB and -dB LED are both lit, indicating 0

 

dB. Count the button presses.

 

 

If the -dB LED is lit and NO input LEDs are lit, press and release the

 

button repeatedly until the +dB and -dB LED are both lit, indicating 0

 

dB. Count the button presses.

 

2.

Return to the original audio level setting by pressing and releasing the

 

or button (the opposite of the button you pushed in step 1) the

 

same number of steps you pushed the opposite arrow button in step 1.

 

In Example 4, this means pushing the

button three times.

3.

Add the dB value indicated by the highest-numbered lit input LED (no

 

input LEDs lit = 0 dB) and either:

 

 

The number of button presses from 0 dB or,

 

The number of button presses from when the highest-numbered input

 

LED lit. In Example 4, Input 1 LED (6 dB) + 2 presses (2 dB) = 8 dB.

4.

The lit +dB or -dB LED indicates the gain (+) or attenuation (-).

EPress and release the button several times to decrease the audio level displayed in the input LEDs by 1 dB per button push. The LED flashes each time the button is pressed. Note the input LED, +dB LED, and -dB LED changes that occur each time the button is pressed and released. Figure 3-9 shows the result of pressing the button a total of nine times to change the value to -1 dB. Note that the +dB LED has turned off and that the -dB LED is on to indicate a negative level.
