CHAPTER 3
SIM 3 Configurations and Branches
NOTE: Make sure you have set the desired address on the address switch of
the SIM-3088 Line Switcher(s) in use.
For each SIM-3088 line switcher, determine their configuration (number of console channels
versus processor channels): 8 + 8, 4 + 12, or 0 + 16. This selection is done using the radio
buttons on the upper right side of each tab; the default is 8 + 8. Once the selection is made,
the number of Console and Processor fields will be arranged accordingly.
NOTE: Make sure you have set the desired configuration for the SIM-3088
Line Switcher(s) in use.
3.1.4.2. Labeling Switcher Channels
Console:
Once the switcher is configured, each input field will contain a default name, using the
following convention: the letters “Sw” for switcher, the 0 through 9 address number of the
switcher on that tab, the type of device connected with “Cons” for console and “Proc”
for processor, and the particular 1 through 16 connector location on the rear panel of that
switcher. Examples are “Sw 0 Cons 3” and “Sw 4 Proc 12”.
To aid in setting up all of the branches for measurement, create useful names for each of the
console channels of the branches and enter them into the switcher fields over the default
names. Left”, “Center”, “Right”, “Front Fill”, “Subs”, or other useful names can help identify
the selected Console channel. In addition to the Name field, Console channels have a
Comment field to be used for more thorough documentation of the setup.
Processor:
To aid in setting up all of the branches for measurement, create useful names for each of the
processor channels of the branches and enter them into the switcher fields over the default
names. The Processor names could be “EQ Left”, “EQ Right”, or any other useful name to
identify the processor channel when selected.
