6 OPERATION - SYSTEM PROCESSOR MODE

6 . 1 I n t r o d u c t i o n

System Processor mode configures the processor for standard, digital signal processing functions. These functions consist of Input Channel and Output Channel processing that includes equalization filters, signal delay, polarity, gain, crossover filters, limiting, and high/low-pass filters. All parameters are user accessible and user adjustable.

6 . 2 Select System Processor Mode

1.Select the UTIL function.

2.Scroll down to and select: Mode

3.Select: System Processor. This will reboot the processor and reset all parameters to their default settings for this mode.

6 . 3 Signal Routing

In order to pass signal, these tasks must be completed as detailed in the sections listed.

1.Select the type of input signal connected to the XLR input connectors (5.3.3).

2.Assign one or two sources (input connector signals) to each input channel (6.4.1).

3.Assign a source (an input channel) to each output channel (6.5.1).

6 . 4 CH (Input Channels A to D)

Use the CH function to set the parameters for Input ChannelsAto D by selecting theAto D buttons.

6.4.1SRC - SOURCE 1 / SOURCE 2

Select either a single source or a sum of two sources. The same source can be selected for multiple Input Channels. The source choices available depend on the configuration of the Input Channels as set in the UTIL menu.

None

Analog A / AES A CH 1

Analog B / AES A CH 2

Analog C / AES B CH 1

Analog D / AES B CH 2

U-Net 1 to 32

6.4.2CHANNEL NAME

Enter a name for the input channel, up to 16 alphanumeric characters.

6.4.3U-NET OUT ASSIGN

Assign the summed, unprocessed sources to a U-Net output channel. This is useful for daisy-chaining a single analog orAES source signal to multiple UX8800 units.

6 . 5 CH (Output Channels 1 to 8)

Use the CH function to set the parameters for Output Channels 1 to 8 by selecting the 1 to 8 buttons.

6.5.1SOURCE SELECT

Select one of the Input Channels as a source for the Output Channel. The same Input Channel can be the source for multiple Output Channels.

None

Input Channel A

Input Channel B

Input Channel C

Input Channel D
