Source Presence Indicators (RM-2S10 only)
On the RM-2S10, the presence of active audio on a Source input is indicated by green
illumination of the corresponding Source LED. The currently selected Source is indicated by
yellow illumination.
This feature may optionally be disabled through the use of the remote control OPT
command (see the appropriate section of this manual).
Main Meters
Fig 1-8: RM-2S4 & RM-2S10 Meters
The main meters are twin 53-segment, multicoloured LED bargraphs, displaying the
currently selected stereo audio source. The upper meter displays the left channel and the
lower meter the right channel.
By default, the meters reect exactly what is being heard from the loudspeakers including
any front panel signal modiers that are active, i.e. they are “output” meters. For example,
if Middle+Side processing is active (see the appropriate section of this manual), the upper
meter will display the Middle signal and the lower meter will display the Side. If the CUT
modier is used to mute an input channel, the corresponding meter will display no signal.
If preferred, the meters may be made to behave as “input” meters, i.e. not aected by front
panel signal modiers, through the use of the remote control OPT command (see the
appropriate section of this manual).
Several dierent characteristics are available for the meters to suit dierent applications
and regional preferences. The active meter characteristic is selected by the settings
of DIPSwitches 8, 9 and 10 on DIPSwitch Block 1 (found on the underside of the unit),
according to the following table.
