Monitor

When Monitor Mode is selected, the integrated switches in the 8 channel control knobs function as selector
switches for the Monitor Controller in MIO Console. Monitor Mode requires MIO Console to be running to
function.

In Monitor Mode, the I/O Trim selection controls which Monitor Controller Selector the switches will affect. If
the I/O Trim selection indicator is on Input, then the selection controls will choose from the Monitor Controller
Input Sources. If the I/O Trim selection indicator is on Output, then the selection controls will choose from
the Monitor Controller Output Destination.

The currently selected path (source or destination) is indicated by illuminating the ring around the correspond-
ing knob in yellow.
