CONTROLS and FEATURES

GAIN TRIM - Concealed front panel gain trim potentiometers (located
just above the A/B selector switch, beneath the hinged meterbridge) provide
a 32dB control range, assuring compatibility with various input levels.
There are separate trimpots for A and B sources.
A/B SOURCE - This switch (LED illuminated) selects between the two
electronically balanced microphone level inputs. The "B" source is selected
when the switch is lit.
INSERT POINT (internal) - Mono mic inputs have a patch point available
at the channel's audio connector to allow insertion of outboard processing.
The insert point is unbalanced, pre-fader, pre-on/off.
ASSIGN - These three switches (LED illuminated) determine where the
input signal will be sent; they route the channel signal to the console's
stereo Program (PGM), stereo Audition (AUD) and/or mono Telephone
(TEL) busses.
FADER - Long-throw carbon; plug-in for easy service.
ON/OFF SWITCHES - Turn the channel ON and OFF. Brightly illuminated.
If desired, they may be remotely controlled and programmed for different
automatic functions:
EXTERNAL CONTROL - Microphone channels may be turned ON and
OFF from a remote location; A TALKBACK-to-CR function can also be
remotely activated. The channel's ON switch can control a remote LED
tally indicator (see ON TALLY, bottom of page 2-5). These functions are
intended for a user-provided talent/guest control panel in a separate
studio. Three momentary contact switches are required (see drawing on
page 2-6).
PROGRAMMABLE FUNCTIONS - These include control room MUTE,
studio MUTE/DIM, and TALKBACK-to-STUDIO. These are programmed
via jumpers at the channel's logic connector (see page 2-5). Note the CR
MUTE signal can also activate the console's ON-AIR TALLY RELAY (see
MONITORS chapter, CUE/TALLY connector pinout, page 6-6).
