ADDITIONAL SWITCHING SYSTEM

| 15

1. Digital Input Selected LEDs

Feature: Visual confirmation that a specific digital source has been selected by the Monitor ST-SR

Remote. Yellow LED on = source selected. Yellow LED off = source not selected.

Benefit: Avoid putting post-its on all your gear to remember the combinations-- what? I already forgot...

2. Input Button

Feature: This button toggles Input 4 between TOSLINK multichannel ADAT and stereo optical.

Benefit: Provides monitoring of non ADAT, stereo optical sources.
Tip:

,

Plug in your Mac’s optical digital out and hear what’s going on! You will need your own cable.

Note:

Stereo optical (S/PDIF) is different than multichannel optical (ADAT).

3. LED Signal Present Indicators

Feature: Visual confirmation provided for the input selected.

Benefit: Avoid an hour of troubleshooting to determine whether signal is present and humiliating yourself

in front of clients. “Holy Smokes, is the source bad? The cable shorted? The input jack sour?”

4. Digital LED Lock Indicator

Feature: The LED lights to confirm that the D/A has locked to the selected digital input. [The D/A has an

instantaneous lock range of 32 kHz-192 kHz.]

Benefit: Get an hour of your life back by confirming that the audible “snat” is not a digital sync issue

from the DAC-SR. Avoid embarrassing scenes in front of clients. “Well now Higgins, is the
source bad? A/D out of sync? The cable shorted? The input connector bunk?”

Operation: The input source is selected from the Monitor ST-SR Remote using the “Additional Switching”

buttons. The Lock LED is tethered to the Monitor ST-SR Remote’s selections.

Tip:

,

Green LED on = active source plugged in

Red LED on = nothing plugged in or the source is inactive (i.e. off)

5. Bank LED Input Indicators

Feature: Visual confirmation of which bus the module is occupying.
Benefit: Instantly determine which module is being controlled from the Monitor ST-SR remote.
