The Output 1, Output 2, and Output 3
LEDs display input 5's audio level range.

The +dB LED indicates
a gain (positive) level.

The power LED lights
steadily or blinks off only
occasionally to indicate
that the adjusted level is
too high.

A VU meter connected
to output 1 indicates
that the adjusted level
is approximately +9 dB
above the –10 dBV
internal level.

In this example, the LEDs indicate gain in the +6 dB to +10 dB range.

Press and release the Input 5 button.

The Input 5 LED lights to
indicate that input 5 is selected.

If the +dB and –dB LED are both lit they indicate an input gain of 0 dB.
Otherwise, you can determine the exact gain or attenuation using the
following procedure.

If one or more output LEDs are lit AND the +dB LED is lit

, press and

release the

button repeatedly until the highest-numbered lit output

LED goes out. Count the button presses. In example 8, assume a value
of +8 dB. It takes three presses of the

button for the Output 1 LED to

go out.

If one or more output LEDs are lit AND the –dB LED is lit

, press and

release the

button repeatedly until the highest-numbered lit output

LED goes out. Count the button presses.

If the +dB LED is lit and NO output LEDs are lit

, press and release the

button repeatedly until the +dB and –dB LED are both lit, indicating

0 dB. Count the button presses.

If the –dB LED is lit and NO output LEDs are lit

, press and release the

button repeatedly until the +dB and –dB LED are both lit, indicating

0 dB. Count the button presses.
