If the NControl software has been used to change the routing, a warning will appear before the Routing page
is displayed. Selecting OK will reset the NControl scene and the Aurora
(n)
will revert to basic routing.
6.2.6 Test Tone
The Test Tone page controls the test tone function, which can be used as a good diagnostic tool to test an
output, and can even be used to calibrate downstream devices. Any channel output pair that has the tone
turned on will have all other sources muted and will generate a 1kHz sine wave. As soon as the tone is turned
off, the previous channel routing will be restored for that output pair. By default, the tone will be 40dB down
from full-scale, and can be adjusted to the desired level with the rotary encoder by .5dB increments when the
volume control is selected.
Pressing the Function button allows you to switch between the main output groups. The Rotary Encoder lets
you scroll to the specific channel pair you desire, and then press the Rotary Encoder to turn on/off the test
tone. Pressing the Select button allows you to switch between the selected output and the volume control.
6.2.7 Digital In Status
The “Digital In Status” page is available if an LM-DIG module is installed in Slot 4 and will display the status
of all eight digital inputs. Lock / Unlock state is indicated by green /red background under each digital input,
and when locked the sample rate of the incoming digital signal is also displayed.
