PS-8810
DIGITAL SIGNAL PROCESSOR
e: Digital Display
A green front panel 'Power' indicator lights to show that AC power
is being supplied. In addition, the light will blink when an input IR
command has been received.
An amber front panel data signal presence indicator ('DATA')
flashes whenever commands addressed to the BSS PS-8810 are
received. To assist with troubleshooting, an option that forces the
DATA indicator to remain lit is available through IQ for Windows
software.
This green front panel 'Interface' led indicates that the BSS PS-
8810 is the master unit in an IQ loop. The control to set this is
found in the IQ for Windows software.
A sixteen-segment LED display matrix is provided on the front
panel. The LEDs are separated into two rows of eight. The display
can be set to three different operating modes: 'Level Meter', 'Gate
Status', and 'Infinity Pattern'.
• 'Level Meter mode' - each row can be set to display the
signal level of any input or output meter.
• 'Gate Status mode' - each LED represents a corresponding
input gate, and remains lit while the gate is open.
• 'Infinity Pattern mode' - the LED’s constantly flash in a
'figure of eight' pattern (LED test mode).
The three-digit digital display serves several useful functions.
When power is first applied, it displays an initialization
sequence. Once the unit is initialized, the display changes to
Preset Mode, indicating the presently selected Preset. The display
also indicates Scene select, IQ address, and RS232 baud rate
when those parameters are being adjusted.
