DEQ-II LCD DISPLAY LAYOUT
(Callouts refer to Figure 1.4)
The LCD display information is organized into three
main sections, as shown in Figure 1.4. These sections
are: The Softkey/Message Area , the Curve Area, and
the Status Area.
SOFTKEY/MESSAGE AREA: This area is used to la-
bel the Softkeys (i.e., identify the Softkey functions)
and to display messages, such as error announce-
ments. The Softkey/Message Area is also used, de-
pending on the action being performed, to display and
allow editing of the Name, Title, or Passwords of the
equalizer.
THE CURVE AREA : Gives a quick graphical view of
the filter settings for the Active Preset. While the
graduations allow an estimation of the actual setting
for any given band, the Status Area will display the
exact setting.
1. Each "slug" represents a Bandpass Filter set-
ting. The Bandpass Filters may be adjusted in
1/2 dB steps over a
±
12 dB range.
2. This is the Band Cursor, a solid "bar" that
overlaps the slider "slot" of the "Active Filter
Band." It denotes the Active Filter Band.
