Please refer to the CX-34000 assembly drawing in

Figure 41 on page 98

for

the following configuration switch instructions.

S34-1/2 – Stereo/Mono Mode Selection

The Apex is normally operated in two-level stereo mode (both switches

OFF

). This mode, which is also referred to as split stereo, allows for stereo

mode switching such as mix, reverse, etc. In this mode the Apex boards are
programmed so that the right channel is always 4 physical level numbers
higher than the left channel.

With S34-1

ON

OFF

, the switcher will operate as one physical level,

which is considered standard AES mode. This mode is also referred to as

Locked Stereo

.

With S34-2

, the switcher will operate in

Mono

mode. In this case a

256 x 256 router is configured as a 512 x 512 mono router.
