7.2 Understanding the 7-Segment Displays
The VP-8x8AK has two displays:
• The STATUS 7-segment display
• The REL. AUDIO LEVEL (dB) 7-segment display
7.2.1 The STATUS 7-Segment Display
During normal operation, the STATUS display shows which inputs are
switched to which outputs, as illustrated in
Figure 11 . In the VIDEO mode,
the display shows the video signal setup and in the AUDIO mode, it shows
the audio signal setup. In the AFV it shows both signals (see
Section 7.6 ).
