Stereo Line Input (SLD-5)
Module Overview
SLD-5 modules are for stereo line input signals. They are available in
two different versions:
The ADC (analog-to-digital converter) version accepts +4dBu balanced
analog input signals. It has L/R front panel input gain trimpots and uses an
SLADC-500 piggyback card at the input stage of the module.
The SRC (sample rate converter) version accepts digital (AES) inputs. It
uses an SRC-500 piggyback input card and has no front panel gain trims. The
factory default digital format is AES.
Each module accepts two stereo sources: A and B, switched at the top
of the module. Output switches assign the selected source signal to any
combination of the console’s three stereo outputs: PGM (program), AUD
(audition), and/or UTL (utility).
A CUE switch places the module’s signal on the console’s stereo cue
bus, where it may be heard on the meterbridge mounted cue speakers and/
or as an interrupt to the console operator’s headphones and control room
monitor speakers. The various cue interrupt modes are programmed at the
console’s CRD-5 (Control Room) module via internal PCB-mounted
dipswitches. See page 5-3.
Channel ON (START) and OFF (STOP) switches are at the bottom of
the module. In addition to being controlled remotely, these can also be
programmed (via internal PCB-mounted dipswitches) to perform a
variety of functions, including starting and stopping external source
machines, activating control room and studio mutes, external tallies, and
timer restart. The STOP switch’s LED can be controlled by an external
source machine to act as a “ready” indicator.
All audio and control input and output signals are made via four 12-
pin AMP type connectors mounted in the bottom of the console’s
mainframe, directly underneath each individual module.
