4. Program Tally Outputs.
[Skip this step if you do not wish to use the tally outputs.]
See step 6 on page 2-4 for wiring instructions.
You can program the two tally outputs to indicate a number of different opera-
tional and fault conditions.
A) Navigate to Setup > N
B) Program tally output #1.
To program a given tally output, press and hold the soft button associ-
ated with the output you are programming. As you turn the control
knob, the functions listed below will appear in the highlighted field.
• Input: Analog: Indicates that the 8500S is processing audio from its analog
input.
• Input: Digital: Indicates that the 8500S is processing audio from its AES3
digital input.
• Analog Input Silent: Indicates that the level at either or both analog in-
put channels is below the threshold set in step 3 on page 2-24.
• AES Input Silent: Indicates that the level at either or both digital input
channels is below the threshold set in step 3 on page 2-24.
• AES Input Error: Indicates that the 8500S's AES input receiver chip has de-
tected a problem with the data being received such that the data is unus-
able. When the chip detects such an error, it automatically switches the in-
put to A
NALOG
• Sync Reference Input Error: Indicates that the 8500S has detected a
problem with the signal being received at the sync reference input such
that the signal is unusable.
•
When pilot sync is specified (S
such an error is detected, the 8500S automatically switches the sync source to
the digital input.
•
If there is no valid digital input signal at the digital input, the sync source de-
faults to the 8500S's internal clock.
• No Function: Tally output is disabled.
C) Program tally output #2 if you wish, following the procedure in step (B) above
