configuring a system in this manner. The 
dynamic range or noise floor of the audio 
signals will be impacted and extreme set-
tings could lead to poor monitor system 
performance.
Restore Factory Defaults
The restore factory defaults function is pro-
vided primarily for factory use. In this way 
a system can be shipped with the default 
settings selected. While you are welcome 
to use this function, be careful so that your 
configuration efforts aren’t wasted. Spe-
cifically, be aware that the reference level 
is reset to minimum level. All the other 
parameters are fairly easy to set up, but 
resetting the reference level would require 
getting out an SPL meter and a calibrated 
signal source. This is a hassle you may not 
need!
Model 71 Control Console 
Configuration
Two configuration choices are available on 
each Model 71. One is its device address, 
the other is the button disable mode. A 
small button is located on the back of each 
Model 71 Control Console, adjacent to the 
9-pin female D-sub connector. Pressing 
and holding this button for two seconds 
places this specific unit in its configura-
tion mode; normal operation of the Model 
760-03 and other connected Model 71 
and Model 77 units will continue. When a 
Model 71 enters its configuration mode 
its three LEDs will no longer perform their 
usual functions. Instead the status LED will 
blink to indicate that configuration mode is 
active. Refer to Figure 9 for details.
Device Address

address. The rotary level control is used 
to select the desired device address; the 
LEDs will respond accordingly. The device 
address must be selected so as not to con-
flict with the device address of any other 
connected Model 71 or Model 77 Control 
Console. The choices are A1, A2, A3, 
and A4. All Model 71 units have a default 
device address of A4; Model 77’s units 
have a default device address of A1. This 
ensures that, in most cases, no change 
will have to be made. Refer to Figure 10 
for details.
Button Disable
To disable the Model 71’s buttons, simulta-
neously press and hold both the dim and 
reference buttons for two seconds. When 
the disable request has been recognized 
the LEDs above both buttons will flash 
rapidly. Release the buttons and they will 
no longer enable or disable their normal
