Selecting and Placing Inputs (Gain)
The first recommended step in building a system is to identify your inputs. The
inputs are linked to the Gain device in the component menu. When you select a
Gain device, the following dialog box will appear:
Figure 6.
You will first want to select which physical input on the ISP-100 the Gain device
will be linked to. (Refer to figures 1 and 2.) As you recall, slot 1 can be input only,
and slot 2 can be input or output. Therefore your input choices are 1a, 1b, 2a,
and 2b.
Figure 7.
Normally you will start building inputs in that order, so your first selection would
be 1a.
You can rename the Gain device at this point also by typing a new name in the
“Name” window, or you can rename devices at a later point under the device edit
function.
There are two other windows in this dialog box where values can be entered. The
RID (Relative Identification) box and the DSP box. The QuickBUILD
software
will automatically fill in the correct values for you. Under normal circumstances,
you would not alter these values after the software has assigned values to them.
Working with these windows will be discussed in the Advanced Design section.
