Surround Solos & PFL Direct Out
The Master screen Solos panel shows details of the console’s two Solo Busses.
Solo Buss 1 can be sent to the Main Speakers (Monitor Matrix Speaker Outs) and/or Mono Direct Output.
Beneath the To Monitoring label press one of Mono/Stereo/Surround or Off buttons to determine whether the Solo 1 signal will go to
the main speaker outs and if so, which mode the Solo will have.
The No Source button will open a selection panel to choose which Aux or Group buss will be monitored when no other Monitor source is
selected.
This No Source signal is set to the Master buss by Default.
The Mono Outs button will open a routing panel to choose which console output or rack output will feed the dedicated mono output
speaker. This signal is Mono but can be routed to multiple outputs
Solo 2 can feed a different Direct Output socket of your choice but can also feed the Main Monitoring in Mono.
All console channels have a Solo 1 or Solo 2 choice function that determines which Solo Buss(es) that channel will feed.
If the Options Panel / Solo / Dual AFL/PFL mode is set to YES then any channel can be sent to either/both solo busses.
Buttons in the Solo panel determine which Solo will be activated by which worksurface button. By default, the channel LCD display button
will activate Solo 2 and the lowest underscreen button row will activate Solo 1.
With the Default settings, Solo 1 is in AFL mode and Solo 2 is in PFL mode but these can also be adjusted in the Solos panel or on the
worksurface.

1.2.8 GPIO Relays..........................................................................
The GPIO relay actions can be directly accessed using the GPIO Relays panel on the Master Screen System menu > GPIO Relays.
The GPIO panel is split into two sections. The top half operates the GPO’s, and the bottom half indicates incoming GPI’s.
To trigger a GPO, first select the type of GPO action; either toggle of pulse. Then touch on the GPO output to be triggered. A toggle action
will close the GPO if it is open, and open the GPO if it is closed. A pulse action will send a close then open command.
The 16 (according to console model) GPI indicators show the receipt on incoming GPI triggers. Actions are applied to these triggers using
the Macro programming panel. The single GPI Event LED in the top right hand corner of the panel will light when any of the 16 (according
to console model) GPI’s are triggered.
