Front Panel Functions
The high quality faders used in this equaliser have an
The scale switch selects maximum boost and cut for the equaliser of either 6dB or12dB. The centre position of this switch performs the bypass function, which silently removes the graphic equaliser section from the signal path.
The Overload LED The signal level is monitored at several separate points within the circuitry of the unit, and any one of these signals exceeding a threshold, set 3dB below clipping, will cause the LED to light. This threshold is set at +19dB, but it must be remembered that excessive boost of some frequencies combined with a high average input signal, can occasionally cause this level to be exceeded. In this event, the input level control should be turned down to correct the problems. However, if the input signal itself exceeds +19dBu the input stage will be overloaded. If this problem arises, the signal level from the output of the preceding piece of equipment must be turned down.
Rear Panel Functions
The mains fuse is located in a fuse holder, fitted to the rear panel. Always replace with the correct type and rating of fuse, as indicated adjacent to the fuse holder.
Main is supplied via an IEC standard 3 pin connector. A compatible power cable
is supplied with the unit.
The serial number of this unit should be quoted in any correspondence concerning the unit.
