Input Routing - Lexicon 960L Owner's Manual

960L

INPUT ROUTING

The 960L can support up to 16 channels of physical input
consisting of analog and/or AES/EBU digital. Each DSP
card supports 8 inputs. Each of these 8 inputs on the DSP
card can be sourced from any of the physical inputs on
your 960L. If a second DSP card is installed in your 960L, the
outputs of one DSP card are available as inputs to the
other DSP card, allowing you to cascade from one DSP
card to the other.
Input routing is performed on the same screen as the con-
figuration selection discussed in the previous section.
Each DSP card input source is determined by selecting
the input type (AES, analog), the outputs of the other DSP
card (OFF, etc.), and the channel of the selected input
type. For example, on a 960L with a single DSP card and
two AES/EBU digital I/O cards installed, the available types
will be OFF, AES 1, and AES 2.
To mute a desired DSP card input, simply select OFF as the
input type for that DSP card input.
Each configuration available in the system has its own
input routing that is saved with the configuration. When a
configuration is loaded, the last input routing used for that
configuration is restored. Any change to a configuration's
input routing is automatically saved with the loaded con-
figuration.
To route an input:
1. Load the desired DSP configuration. See the sec-
tion on configurations if you are not sure how to
load one.
2. After the configuration is loaded, press the Right
arrow to scroll to the input routing control shown
in Fig. 4-22. When the control is selected the title
bar turns blue.

3. Use the Left/Right Arrow keys to scroll to the DSP
input channel for which you would like to select
the source. The input is selected when it turns
black.
4. Use the Up/Down Arrow keys to scroll to the input
type box on the selected DSP channel. The top
row is the input type and the bottom row is the
channel of the selected input type.

Shared Inputs
When a physical input is being utilized as an input source
by another DSP card input anywhere in the system, the
input is said to be "shared." When an input is shared with
another DSP card input in the system, an "S" will appear
next to the channel number.
OUTPUT ROUTING
The 960L can support up to 16 channels of physical output
consisting of analog and/or AES/EBU digital. Each DSP
card supports 8 outputs. Each of these 8 outputs on the
DSP card can be routed to any of the physical outputs on
your 960L. If a second DSP card is installed in your 960L, the
card's outputs will be available as inputs to the other DSP
card allowing you to cascade from one DSP card to the
other.
Output routing is performed on the same screen as the
configuration selection discussed in the previous section.
Each DSP card output destination is assigned by selecting
the output type (AES, analog, OFF, etc.) and the channel
of the selected output type. For example, on a 960L with
a single DSP card and two AES/EBU digital I/O cards
installed, the available types will be OFF, AES 1, and AES 2.
To mute a desired DSP card output, simply select OFF as
the output type for that DSP card output.
Each configuration available in the system has its own
output routing that is saved with the configuration. When
a configuration is loaded the last output routing used for
that configuration is restored. Any change to a configura-
tion's output routing is automatically saved with the
loaded configuration.

Operations in Detail
Use the Incre m e n t / D e c rement keys to scro l l
through all available input types on your system.
The input types available depend on the I/O
cards installed on your system. NOTE: If there are
two DSP cards installed on your system, the out-
puts from the other DSP card will be available as
inputs. These are direct outputs and arrive
unmixed and unpanned.
Use the Up/Down Arrow keys to scroll to the input
channel box on the selected DSP channel. Once
again the top row is the input type and the bot-
tom row is the channel of the selected input type.
Use the Increment/Decrement (+/-) keys to scroll
through all available channels of the selected
input type.
