4.2.3 PROFANITY DELAY CONTROL
When the optional Profanity Delay is active on
the HDE-200 being displayed there is a second
delay status box for the Profanity Delay below
the Digital Program meter levels. It does not have
Ramp Up and Down buttons, but one Dump but-
ton (with a Red Flag) at the end of the status bar.
The Profanity Delay Status Bar shows the state
of delay by a visual, numerical, and percent of the
delay. When the delay is out (or ramped down),
then the profanity delay is 0% with 0.00 seconds
delay. When the delay is fully ramped up, then the
bar is green, the profanity delay setting in seconds
and 100% is shown.
The Profanity Progress Bar waxes red from left
to right as the delay builds from zero seconds to
the Total Profanity Duration. The relative length
of the bar corresponds to the percentage comple-
tion of the delay. The bar color turns from red to
green as the delay builds past the Dump Duration
setting (set in the
Profanity Delay Settings win-
dow), which means that a dump event could oc-
cur at that point.
Triggering a dump event can be done using the
on-screen or a hardware remote panel Dump but-
ton to allow a producer or call screener to dump
the Profanity Delay. The Profanity delay almost
instantly ramps down the delay by the Dump
Duration. Most often the Dump Duration is set to
only dump part of the delay so that a second dump
event could be triggered as the dump builds back
up. For example, if one Dump dumps 50% of the
delay, then a second Dump would dump the rest
of the delay.

Profanity Status and Dump Button
When the Profanity Delay is dumped, the delay
instantly starts to rebuild the delay using the as-
signed ramp method so it is almost inaudible to
the listeners. The Progress Bar will be red if the
dump is below the Dump Duration time, turning
green once a delay event can be triggered again.
4.2.4 STATUS INDICATORS
The bottom portion of the ECC app’s main win-
dow shows the status for the signals required for
proper operation of the HDE-200.
The Signal Status names and indicators use
various colors to indicate their current status. A
name in white indicates an option or signal that is
not active. A name or indicator in green means
that the signal is present or good. A name or indi-
cator in red or orange indicates a fault condition.
In some cases these faults will also be indicated
on the front panel of the HDE-200, blinking the
Fault LED.
Here’s a summary of what the various Signal
Status names and indicators mean:
AES Main = Main Delay Input status: green (has
AES clock); red (no AES clock detected)
AES MPS = MPS Audio Input status: green (has
AES clock); red (no AES clock detected)
ARB Loop = Arbitron PPM Encoder option sta-
tus: white (PPM option not active); green (iBut-
ton installed with PPM option)
ARB Main = Arbitron PPM Encoder audio for
the analog broadcast signal: white (PPM option
not active); green (has AES clock); red (no AES
clock detected)
