There is a transition of LED color at ‐10 dBfs. Since the meters are peak indicating, it will
generally be safe to run things into the red, depending on the desired headroom, and the
dynamics of the material. When setting levels with a sine wave (tone) a level near the red green
boundary allows for the stated headroom specifications.
Receive Bargraph
The Receive LEDs represent the level of the audio being decoded from the far end. The level is
monitored in the digital domain at the output of the decoder and therefore is not affected by
the Audio Out setting in the AUDIO menu. The calibration and characteristics of the Receive
meter match those of the Transmit bargraph.
Fast Access Menu Keys – AUDIO, CODEC, TEL, SYSTEM
These keys are used to instantly jump to a
desired menu. The first key‐press displays a
summary status screen for that menu.
Subsequent presses page through the
screens of options. The idea is to make it
easy to jump directly to a desired menu
simply by pressing the desired Menu key a
specific number of times.
Pressing and holding down any of these
keys will take you back to the default status
screen.
See Section 5 (Guided Tour of the Menus) for an introduction to these menus and Section 11
(Detailed Menu Reference) for details on menu options.

HOT TIP!
Note that the CODEC, TEL, & SYSTEM menus (and Navigation and Menu Selection Keys)
are identical among all models of the Zephyr Xstream. Only the AUDIO menu varies between
the Xstream (non-mixer) and Xstream MX/MXP (mixer) versions.
Navigation and Menu Selection Keys
These keys are used to move through the menu options on a given page of menu
items. Once the desired menu item has been highlighted (displayed with white text
on a black background), pressing the <SEL> selects this option. You can then use the
<
5> or <6> keys to view the options for this item (or to change the position of a
sliding control). The previous setting will have [ ] around it. Pressing the <SEL> key
once again saves your selection.
Pressing any Menu key will abort the entry process and allows you to “escape”.
