INSTALLATION
Preset names are just suggestions. Feel free to audition different presets
and to choose those whose sound you prefer.
You can easily modify a preset later with the 6300's one-knob L
feature. Refer to Section 3.
Congratulations! You are now on the air with your initial sound. Feel free to
read the material in Section 3 of this manual, which describes the various presets
and how you can customize them to achieve your desired signature sound.
20. Complete Station ID (optional).
The Station ID is an optional setting that you can provide to name a given 6300.
The name can be up to eight characters long. It is used to identify your 6300 to
Orban's 6300 PC Remote application and appears on the Main Screen when PC
Remote is controlling the 6300.
A) Navigate to S
ETUP
B) Use the knob to set the each character in the ID. Use the N
tons to control the cursor position.
C) When finished entering your name, press the SAVE button. If you escape to
the main screen from Setup, you can now see the station name toggle on the
main screen.
21. Set up response to AES3 status bits (optional).
The default behavior of the 6300 is to ignore AES status bits because many pieces
of external equipment handle these incorrectly. However, the 6300 allows the
AES3 "channel mode" determine its operating mode (stereo or dual-mono). The
AES3 channel mode specification provides for "two-channel mode" (correspond-
ing to 6300 dual-mono mode) with bits 1-4 in byte 1 in the pattern "0001," and
"stereophonic mode" (corresponding to 6300 stereo mode) with these bits in the
pattern "0100."
The 6300 can also emit these status bits at its digital output to control down-
stream equipment.
A) Navigate to S
ETUP
AES.
SPDIF cannot be used to handle status bit because the specification does
not allow it.
B) To enable the 6300 to change its operating mode in response to AES status
bits received at its AES input:
 Navigate to S
 Set I
>M to O
N ODE
Unless you are sure that upstream equipment will correctly format these
I >M
N
bits, set
 Make sure that the equipment driving the 6300 is formatting its output as
AES3. SPDIF will not work.
