Front Panel Features

Speakers

The internal speaker system is comprised of two mid-range tweeter speakers (left and right) and two woofer speakers (left

and right). The two mid-range speakers reproduce only the mid and high frequencies, while the two woofer speakers

monaurally reproduce the low frequencies. See page 18 for more information about the audio amp and speaker configuration.

Headphone Output Jack

This jack accepts a standard 1/4” phone type stereo plug. Select the headphone audio sources as you would for the internal

speakers. When you plug in headphones, the speakers will mute.

SDI Group Select Switch

This 8-position rotary switch is used to select the SDI Group (G1, G2, G3, or G4) and SDI Subgroups (1, 2 or 3, 4) for

the SDI source. The SDI source is selected using the A/B Select switch (Item 4, page 10) on the front of the VPOD LCD

display pod.

Audio Level Meters

Audio levels are visually displayed via these two 10-segment, tri-color (RED, AMBER, GREEN) LED bargraph display level

meters. The bargraph on the left indicates left channel audio levels of the of the selected source, while the bargraph on the

right indicates right channel audio levels. These meters are able to display signal levels using either PPM or VU standards as

selected via a DIP switch module accessible by removing the top cover of the unit. See page 25 for specifications and

settings of these meters.

Volume Control

This controls the loudness of the audio reproduced by the internal speakers or connected headphone. Clock-wise rotation

of this control increases the loudness of the monitored audio in both channels (left and right).

VPOD LCD Video Display Module

Video signals entering the AVMFlex-SA Series unit are monitored through the VPOD LCD video display. The VPOD

module is attached to the front panel by a length of flexible gooseneck tubing allowing angle viewing adjustment in all

directions. One of five sizes of LCD display screens may be specified, including 4", 5.6", 5.8" (16:9), 6.8", and 7" (16:9)

LCD display sizes.

See page 10 for complete information on the use and control of the VPOD LCD video display module.

Balance Control

This adjusts the volume balance between the left and right speakers. See page 18 for a description of the AVMFlex-SA

balance control characteristics.
