TALKBACK BUTTON
Determines how the [TALKBACK/SLATE] works. To set it so that it only functions
while the button is held down, and is turned off when the button is released, set it to
"MOMENTARY." To set it so that it is turned on by pressing the button, and is
turned off by pressing the button again, set it to "LATCH."

LED TYPE
Normally, the channel status and [STOP] auto-mixing indicators light in green.
However, it is sometimes difficult to see these green indicators outdoors or in bright
locations. In this case, set the LED TYPE to "TYPE2." By setting it to "TYPE2," a red
indicator blinks instead.

, EXT SW1/2 (External switch 1/2)
By using the foot switch or GPI connected to the EXT SW jack on the rear panel,
play/stop of Automix, scene changing and talkback can be controlled.
TYPE: Determines whether to use the foot switch or the GPI. As for the foot
switch, use a Roland DP-2 (pedal switch) or a BOSS FS-5U. Also, the use
of a branch cable (PCS-31; sold separately) enables two functions to be
controlled.

What is GPI?
GPI (General Purpose Interface) is a control connector provided on professional/
consumer-use video peripheral equipment, such as editing machines and titling
devices. By connecting a device that supports GPI, the same function as the foot
switch can be controlled from the external device.
FUNCTION: Determines which function to control with the foot switch.
