1.3: EXTERNAL PROCESSOR FRONT PANEL
The front panel controls are arranged into three logical groups: headphone MONITOR controls,
STAND-ALONE controls, and INPUT LEVEL controls.
The MONITOR controls allow the user to listen to either the INPUT or OUTPUT signals with a pair
of stereo headphones connected to the 1/4" PHONES jack. Switching the headphones between the
INPUT and OUTPUT signals does not alter the signal flow to the LEFT OUT and RIGHT OUT line
output RCA connectors. The VOLUME level can be adjusted to a comfortable listening level.
The STAND-ALONE CONTROLS allow the user to select and run one of ten previously-
programmed filter setups stored in internal nonvolatile memory. For complete instructions on using the
STAND-ALONE memories, see Sections 4.10.3: and 5: .0.
The front panel of the PCAP II Plus external processor appears as follows (Figure 1-):
The LEFT and RIGHT INPUT LEVEL controls allow the user to adjust the input signals to the
proper level for processing. Tricolor LEDs are provided to indicate signal levels; when the LEDs are
GREEN, the signals are at the proper levels, while YELLOW indicates caution. RED indicates
potential input overload. Input signal levels are also indicated by the displayed bargraphs on the PCAP
II Plus Master Control Panel (See Section 3.2: PCAP II Tutorial).
The POWER led indicates when power is supplied to the unit, while the PC CONTROL led indicates
when the unit is under control of the PCAP II Plus Master Control software.
