The Master controls are also shown in Figure 6-11 and are discussed below. A set of
OVERRIDE, PRESET, and MUTE buttons appears for each active group.
Reset
Before making a new setup, we recommend clicking reset to set all operating controls
to default values. This does not include network parameters or the unit’s name.
Meters
The meters have three display modes. The default mode is auto mix gain, which is the
most useful display during normal operation. The input and output meters are only
used when setting or checking levels.
Table 6-2 Meter modes
Click on the Master meters button to cycle through the three meter display modes.
System
It is possible to have multiple systems on your network. For example, some facilities
may wish to have one network serve separate studios. It is not desirable for these
systems to interact or be viewed when using a different studio. The Model E-2A
allows you to create up to 16 separate systems on one network.
Separating Systems
To separate multiple systems:
1. Select the first unit to include in the system by clicking it in the Top Pane.
2. Click the system button and select a unique number for that system.
3. Repeat for each unit in that physically linked system, making sure to use the same
number for each unit in the system.
4. Repeat steps 1–3 for each system.
5. To query which system a unit belongs to, select it in the Top Pane and view its
number on the system button.
