ERROR

The Error LED indicates a serious system or setup error,

of selected input clock.

AES, SPDIF and ADAT/TOS

Indicates which digital input source that is currently

selected in the I/O menu.

48 kHz and 44.1

A steady LED indicates the current sample rate. If a

digital input is the audio source and Clock Select is set

to internal 44.1 or 48 kHz the LED’s show the incoming

clock rate - not the selected internal rate.

44.1 kHz lock is indicated with a yellow LED, - as this is

not standard sample rate in broadcast.

If a digital input is selected and not available, 48 and

44.1 kHz LEDs start blinking. This also happens if the

selected input clock is lost.

The LED is lit when commands are received through the

remote COM port.

Indicates that settings have been changed compared to

the currently recalled preset.
