Information messages
The indicators will remain lit /blinking cyclically to report the status.
If the orange [SYNC] indicator is not lit, the unit is operating correctly.
If the green [SYNC] indicator is not lit, the device's word clock is not defined.
Using GPI (General Purpose Interface)
The rear panel GPI (General Purpose Interface) connector can be used as an input/output
connector. This connector provides five GPI IN ports and five GPI OUT ports. For example
you can use an external switch to control internal parameters of the CL series console or to
switch scenes. Conversely, operations or scene changes performed on the CL series console
can send control signals to an external device.
For details on how to send control signals to an external device when you switch scenes, refer
to “Outputting a control signal to an external device in tandem with scene recall (GPI OUT)”
(page 98).
Using GPI IN
You can use the GPI IN ports of the GPI connector to control the parameters of the CL series
console from an external device. For example, you could use an external switch to turn the CL
series console's Talkback on/off, operate the Tap Tempo function, or switch scenes.
An abnormality has occurred
on the circuit connected to the
SECONDARY connector
during redundant network
operation.
Check the circuit connected to the
SECONDARY connector.
[SYNC] indicators Meaning Possible solution
Muted during startup, or in the
process of synchronization.
Please wait until started has
completed or until the unit has
finished synchronization. It
may take up to 45 seconds for
completion.
The device is operating
correctly as a word clock
master.
This indicates that the device is
operating as a word clock master.
The device is operating
correctly as a word clock
slave.
This indicates that the device is
operating as a word clock slave
and synching to the word clock.
