channel mute controls

J

STATUS LED

This bi-color

LED

, associated with each controlled-mute, shows the con-

dition of that mute.

One-of-five possible states is possible:

1

OFF

—The channel is not controlled by the

MUTE CONTROLLER

.

2

STEADY RED

—The channel is being muted by a

MUTE SCENE

.

3

STEADY GREEN

—The channel is in

SAFE MODE

, cannot be muted by any

scene.

4

FLASHING RED

—The system is in

EDIT

/

PREVIEW

mode and the channel

is in the currently selected

SCENE

.

5

FLASHING GREEN

—The system is in

EDIT SAFE

mode and the channel is

included in the

SAFE SCENE

.

6

MUTE SWITCH

—This momentary-switch toggles the channel’s

LOCAL

MUTE

and is also used to assign/un-assign channels to

MUTE

and

SAFE SCENES

,

when in the

EDIT

mode.

7

MUTE LED

—This internal red-

LED

will illuminate whenever the channel

is muted, either locally or by a

MUTE SCENE

.

If a channel is already locally muted when a relevant

MUTE SCENE

is activat-

ed, this

LED

will remain lit. Two sources are now telling the channel to

mute: the

LOCAL MUTE

and the

MUTE SCENE

. If the

MUTE

switch K is pressed

once, the

LOCAL MUTE

will be cleared, but no apparent change will occur.

The

MUTE

LED

L will still be lit, and the

STATUS

LED

J will still be steady-red.

At this point there is only one source telling the channel to mute; the

MUTE

SCENE

. If the

MUTE SCENE

is then disabled, the channel will un-mute because

the

LOCAL MUTE

was previously cleared.

The user should be aware of this fact—the local mutes can toggle invisibly
behind a

MUTE SCENE

. For an even number of presses on the

MUTE

switch

K, the

LOCAL MUTE

will return to its original state, an odd-number of press-

es will change the

LOCAL MUTE

to its opposite-state.
