The Engineer’s Monitor

The console provides left and right engineer’s monitor outputs on XLR and TRS jacks. The
monitor signal is also fed to a built-in headphone amplifier with ¼” and 3.5mm output jacks.
An AFL (after fade listen) function is provided to monitor the mix output signal. This is
interrupted by pressing a channel PFL (pre fade listen) switch. An external input lets the
engineer add an external stereo signal such as in-ear transmitter monitor output or talkback
feed to the AFL mix.

HEADPHONES

The headphones amplifier

feeds two sockets on the front panel – ¼” TRS for
plugging in standard headphones, and 3.5mm jack
for plugging in headphones or ear pieces fitted with
a mini jack.

MONITOR LEVEL

Adjusts the level of the

monitor signal sent to the headphones and local
monitor outputs.

MONO

Press to sum the left and right monitor

signals into mono.

EXT IN

Press this switch to add the external

mono or stereo input signal to the AFL mix. This
signal is overridden by any selected PFL.

PFL

The LED indicator lights when a channel PFL

switch is selected to warn that any currently
selected AFL or external input signal is being
overridden by the PFL signal.

12 SEGMENT METERS

The 12 segment

LED meters show the level of the left and right
engineer’s monitor signals. They display the true
PFL or AFL level and are not affected by the monitor
output level control.

LAMP

Plug in a gooseneck 12V console lamp

fitted with 4-pin XLR connector. We recommend
you use the Allen & Heath LEDlamp long life LED
lamp with built-in thumbwheel dimmer.
