6 LED INDICATO R S
6 . 1 I n p u t m e t e r s
The input meters indicate the signal level in dB below 0 dBFS (0 dB Full Scale), the clip level of the ADC
(analog to digital converter). An input meter still functions when its Input Channel is muted. Ideally, the
highest levels of the signal should illuminate the -6 LED segment, but not the CLIP segment.
Occasional flashing of the CLIP segment may be sonically acceptable.
LED Segment
Signal Level
Clip Red 0 dBFS
- 6 Yellow -6 dBFS
-12 Green -12 dBFS
Sig Green -40 dBFS
An active mute is indicated when the top two LED segments are illuminated.
6 . 2 O u t p u t M e t e r s
Unlike the input meters, the four LED segments of each output meter make up two different meters.
An active mute is indicated when the top two LED segments are illuminated.
6.2.1 SIG, -12, AND CLIP SIG SEGMENTS
These three segments monitor the signal level in dB below 0 dBFS (0 dB Full Scale), the clip level of
the DAC (digital to analog converter). An output meter still functions when its Output Channel is muted.
Ideally, you want the highest level to illuminate the -12 segment, but not the CLIP segment. You can set
levels lower than this, but understand that you are reducing the signal-to-noise ratio.

Signal Level
Clip Red 0 dBFS
-12 Green -12 dBFS
Sig Green -40 dBFS
6.2.2 LIM SEGMENT
This segment monitors the limiter status referenced to the level set for the limiter threshold. The Lim
segment will indicate limiting even when its Output Channel is muted.
LED Segment
Status
Lim Yellow On when the limiter threshold is exceeded and there is gain reduction
Occasional flashing is OK. However, if the LED is rapidly flashing yellow or is on steadily a large
percentage of the time, the input signal to the loudspeaker may be exceeding the loudspeaker’s
capability and the volume level should be reduced.
7 EAWPILOT
7 . 1 E x t r a C a p a b i l i t i e s
While the UX3600 interface window in EAWPilot software provides the same capabilities for
controlling the UX3600 as its front panel controls, it also provides additional capabilities not
available using the front panel controls.
7.1.1 LEVEL MONITORING
The meters in EAWPilot provide more accurate and much higher resolution signal level
monitoring. Both the average and peak levels are easier to read and provide mush better
tracking for critical situations.
7.1.2 PARAMETER LINKING
Using the Map tab in the UX3600 interface window, parameter values for the input
channels and the output channels may be linked so that any changes will affect all such
linked parameters.
