5.5 LEDS PEAK-METERS [ PEAK-METERS ]
Two dual LED peak-meters display the modulation levels over a large scale from -48dB to +12 dB. The
modulation is displayed either in Dot mode or as conventional Bargraph according to the power on mode
[ECO] or [ON].
The modulometers are factory programmed to behave as peak-meter. The 0dB reference corresponds to the
nominal output level that is either of +6 dBu or +4 dBu.
The main stereo modulometer on the left [1-2] always displays the modulation of Masters 1 & 2. The yellow
[ON] Led at the bottom of the left channel confirms that the unit is powered on. The red [BATT] Led at the
bottom of the right channel indicates that the unit is powered from its internal batteries. This Led is flashing
with a period that depends on the remaining battery charge (see chapter 1.1).
The secondary stereo modulometer on the right [ 3-4/PFL ] shows either the modulation of the Master 3 & 4 or
the modulation level of the returns 1 to 4 or the pre-fader modulation of an input channel as soon as a PFL
button is engaged. When all PFL button are released, then the peak-meters turns back to show the level of
Master 3 & 4.
The yellow Led [PFL] at the bottom of the left channel indicates that a least one PFL is switched. The red Led
[AD] at the bottom of the right channel warns for an eventual clipping of the A/D Converter or if the external
wordclock frequency is out of range.
The brightness of the Leds is varies automatically according to the ambient light. A light sensor is located just
below the [AD] led.
