indicators
The function of this switch and these indicators will
change depending on the mode of the M2500.
In normal mode
You can use the ON/EDIT switch to turn the monau-
ral input channel on/off. When the channel is
switched on/off, the ON indicator will be lit/dark to
indicate the status. Channels that are switched off will
not send any signals to the GROUP, STEREO,
MONO/C, or AUX buses, but you can still use the
PFL switch (
O
) to monitor the signal from the
MONITOR OUT jacks or the PHONES jack.
In check mode
When a scene (which contains the on/off state of the
ON/EDIT switches) is selected, the on/off status
memorized in that scene will be indicated by the lit/
dark status of the CHECK indicator. In check mode,
you can also use the ON/EDIT switch to switch the
CHECK indicator between lit/dark. (The current on/
off setting will not be affected.) For details on check
mode, refer to page 32.

SIGNAL
indicators
These three indicators allow you to check the pre-
fader signal level of the monaural input channel.
PEAK
indicator
This will light when the signal exceeds nominal level
by 17 dB.
NOM
(nominal) indicator
This will light when the signal reaches nominal level
(0 dB).
SIGNAL
indicator
This will light when the signal reaches a level 13 dB
below nominal.
N Channel fader
This adjusts the output level of the monaural input
channel signal. This fader affects the level of the sig-
nal that is sent to the GROUP, STEREO, MONO/C,
and AUX (if the PRE switch is off) buses.
OPFL (pre-fader listen) switch
When this switch is on ( ), the pre-fader signal will
be sent to the MONITOR INPUT PFL bus, and can
be monitored from the MONITOR OUT and
PHONES jacks.
