SELECTED CHANNEL section

V5.8 Reference Manual

If patched to a wireless mic (SELECTED CHANNEL VIEW screen)

1 RX.GAIN knob/TX.GAIN knob/TX.ATT knob

Sets the gain for the transmitter or receiver. Press the knob

to open the GAIN/PATCH 1ch window.

The knob name will change depending on the connected

device.

NOTE

When remote control connection is disabled for the connected

device, a gray circle is displayed here instead of a knob, and the

gain cannot be adjusted.

2 OL indicator

Lights if the audio signal level of the receiver reaches the overload point.

3 RF (Radio Frequency) signal meter

Shows bars to indicate the level of the RF signal.

An active antenna indicator is shown on the right side. It indicates which antenna is

enabled.

NOTE

• The display will change depending on the device.

• For more information about the relationship between the number of bars and the actual strength

of the RF signal, refer to the manual from each developer.

4 Battery indicator

Shows bars to indicate the remaining battery power.

NOTE

For more information about the relationship between the number of bars and maximum operation

time, refer to the manual from Shure.

5 MUTE indicator

Indicates the mute status (on/off) of the audio signal for the receiver.

6 Frequency

Indicates the frequency that is currently set for the RF signal.

 PAN/BALANCE field

This field enables you to switch the on/off status of the signal sent from the selected channel

to the STEREO/MONO bus, and adjust the pan and balance.

The view and the function of the controllers in this field vary depending on the type of the

selected channel.

When an input channel or MIX channel is selected:

1 TO STEREO PAN knob

Sets the pan position of a signal routed to the

STEREO bus.

Press the knob to open the STEREO/MONO 8ch

window. If the ST IN channel is selected, you can

specify whether to view the PAN knob or the

BALANCE knob in this window. For a MIX channel,

the PAN knob will appear if the signal is mono, and

the BALANCE knob will appear if the signal is stereo.

NOTE

• For mono input channels, the pan level is nominal at center and +3dB when panned either left or

right. These levels do not change even if channel link is used.

• For ST IN channels, if the PAN knob is selected, the pan level is nominal when panned either left

or right and -3dB at center. If the BALANCE knob is selected the balance level is nominal at

center and +3dB when panned either left or right. These levels do not change even if channel link

is used.

2 ST/MONO button

Switches the on/off status of a signal sent from the

channel to the STEREO/MONO bus.

If an INPUT/MIX channel is set to LCR mode, the

LCR button appears in location

2. The LCR button

is an overall on/off switch for the signals sent from

the channel to the STEREO/MONO bus.

When a MATRIX, STEREO, or MONO channel is selected:

1 BALANCE knob

If the signal on the selected channel is stereo, the

BALANCE knob will appear, enabling you to adjust

the volume balance for the left and right channels.

If the channel signal is monaural, the BALANCE

knob is not shown and cannot be used.

Press the knob to open the TO STEREO 8ch

window.

When using Surround mode (MIX1-MIX6)

3 DOWN MIX

This field enables you to view the downmix

coefficient and L/R button settings.

Press this field to open the TO STEREO/MONO

window.
