powered on.

Input selection buttons and indicator LEDs — Press one of these buttons to

 

select the desired audio and video input. The corresponding LED lights and

 

remains lit while an audio-video input is selected. During audio breakaway

 

(selectable only via RS‑232 control, and described in Special Features on page

 

4‑9), audio is switched separately from video. The selected video input’s LED

 

lights steadily, and the audio input’s LED blinks.

 

Which input’s signal, if any, is routed to the Monitor Output depends on

 

which mode (standard, DA, or RGB follow) is active. See Video Signal Routing

 

on page 3-7 for details on modes and video routing.

C

Volume adjustment knob and Min/Mid/Max LEDs — Use this knob to make

 

input level and volume adjustments. The LEDs indicate different things,

 

depending on the mode (user or setup) the MLS is in. See Making adjustments,

 

on page 3‑6 for instructions on setup mode and per-input adjustments. See

 

appendix A, Reference Material, for audio block diagrams.

 

In the user (regular) mode, the LEDs function as volume level

 

 

indicators. Rotate the Volume knob to adjust the output level of the

 

 

Preamp and Amplified outputs.
