Telos NX12 - Manual (Page 104)

94 | section 7
With analog audio in/out, there are only two total inputs and outputs. So the Nx12 must
♦
be used in a mode that combines the two hybrids assigned to each studio into one input/
output.
The AES option provides 4 input and 4 output channels total, so all hybrids are accessible
♦
with each studio using one AES connection’s two channels. Program-on-Hold remains an
analog input.
Livewire provides the full 4 hybrid input channels, 4 hybrid output channels, and 2
♦
Program-on-Hold inputs.
Four-Column/Four-Hybrid Mode
The Nx12 can be used with an extended Desktop Director, which has four telephone line
columns. Each has an associated hybrid.
Note the following:
With analog audio in/out, there are only two total inputs and outputs. So the Nx12 must
♦
be used in a mode that combines the hybrids into two groups of two each.
The AES option provides 4 input and 4 output channels total, so all hybrids are accessible.
♦
Program-on-Hold remains an analog input.
Livewire provides the full 4 hybrid input channels, 4 hybrid output channels, and a
♦
Program-on-Hold input.
“Euro” Operation Mode
European broadcasters traditionally prefer to have an independent signal path from each
telephone line, through an independent hybrid, and to a mixing console fader dedicated to each.
No line selection matrix switch is used. The Nx12 supports this operation style with Axia mixing
consoles for up to four lines. A standard Desktop Director is used for off-air conversation and
call screening.
