CHANNEL AND BUS NAMES
An out-of-the-box console will have the following channel names and bus names. If they are subsequently
edited, the user may return to these default names by performing a factory reset.
Note: pressing the 'ALT FUNCTION' button will display the ident of the physical rear panel connector XLR that
is associated with the input channels. This label cannot be deleted.
Channel Names
The default channel names tell the user which mic/line input connector is patched to each fader number. The
names are in the format CHnn-cmm, where nn is the channel fader number 01 to 64, c is the connector bay
(A - D) on the rear connector panel, and mm is the mic/line input connector number (1-16) on that connector
bay.
Examples.

CH16-A16 shows that the Channel 16 fader is patched to mic/line number 16 on rearcon bay A.
CH17-B01 shows that the Channel 17 fader is patched to mic/line number 1 on rearcon bay B.

the format BSnn, where nn is the bus number 01 to 24,
Matrix Output Names
