EN DATEQ XTC II manual Setup 9
Software setup
Because the XTC II is a digitally controlled mixer it is possible to adjust some user
settings. Before settings can be adjusted, the setup-mode has to be accessed.
In order to activate the setup-mode the setup-button has to be pressed together with the
to be adjusted setting. The LED besides the setup-button will light-up solid.
Some LEDs on the front will light up, or start to blink. These LEDs indicate the functions
that can be adjusted, and their status (enabled or disabled). A blinking LED means that
the function is disabled; a solid LED means that a function is enabled. Releasing of the
setup-button will end the setup-mode and the settings will be stored.
In table below the adjustable settings are summed up.

Limiter
The XTC II has a build-in limiter. As soon as the output level of the console crosses the +6dB
threshold, the limiter will respond with slowly decreasing the level. This way a good the quality and
dynamics of the audio signal will be guaranteed for a longer period, and the connected
apparatuses will be protected against overload conditions.
The limiter can be enabled and disabled in setup-mode. However it is also possible to apply an
internal hardware link by which the Limiter can no-longer be disabled (Limiter-lock).
