V5.8 Reference Manual

• RF (Radio Frequency) signal meter

Shows bars to indicate the level of the RF signal.

An active antenna indicator is shown on the right side. It indicates which antenna is

enabled by lighting up.

NOTE

• The display will change depending on the device.

• For more information about the relationship between the number of bars and the actual strength

of the RF signal, refer to the manual from each developer.

• Battery indicator

Shows bars to indicate the remaining battery power.

NOTE

For more information about the relationship between the number of bars and maximum operation

time, refer to the manual from each developer.

4 Ø (Phase) button

Switches between normal and reverse phase settings of signals input from the head

amp.

5 D. GAIN (digital gain) knob

Indicates the digital gain value. Press this knob to control the parameter values using the

multifunction knobs. If the Gain Compensation function is turned on, digital gain will

be used to adjust the level of the signal input to the input channels.

6 Digital gain meter

Indicates the level after the signal passes through the digital gain.

7 GC ALL ON button/GC ALL OFF button

Switch Gain Compensation on or off for all input channels simultaneously.

8 AG-DG LINK button

If this button is turned on and GC (Gain Compensation) is enabled, you can link the

digital gain to the analog gain operation.

While you are controlling the analog gain, the Gain Compensation function enables you

to modify the level on your own console without affecting the level of other consoles.

NOTE

If it is patched to a wireless mic, the battery indicator is displayed here.

9 AG-DG ALL ON/OFF buttons

You can turn on/off the link between the analog and digital gain for all input channels

simultaneously.

GAIN/PATCH window

(1-48, 49-72/ST IN (CL5), 49-64/ST IN (CL3), ST IN (CL1))

This window displays the head amp settings of the corresponding input channels. Here you

can also adjust the head amp gain in groups of the selected eight channels by using the

multifunction knobs in the Centralogic section.

1 Parameter select buttons

Switch parameters to view in the window.

• ANALOG GAIN...................... Analog gain

• DIGITAL GAIN ....................... Digital gain

• PATCH ................................... Patch selection

2 GC ALL ON/GC ALL OFF buttons

Switch Gain Compensation on or off for all input channels simultaneously.

3 Channel select button

Selects the channel. You can select multiple channels simultaneously.
