8 LED INDICATORS
8 . 1 E t h e r n e t
The LEDs on the Ethernet connector indicate the Ethernet connection and activity status.
Left Link LED Status Right Activity LED Status
Amber color 10 Mbps Amber color Half duplex
Green color 100 Mbps Green color Full duplex
On Link established On/flashing Data activity
Off No link Off No activity
8 . 2 U - N e t I n d i c a t o r s
The U-Net LEDs on the front/rear panels indicate the U-Net network status.
Green LED ( ) Red/Yellow LEDs (!) Status
On Off U-Net network detected
On Flashing Local fault: not sending or receiving on the assigned
U-Net channel(s) or local and received sample rates are
not synchronized
On On (2 seconds) Local fault detected on another device on the network
Off Off No network detected
8 . 3 I n p u t m e t e r s
The input meters indicate the signal level in dB below 0 dBFS (0 dB Full Scale), the clip level of the ADC
(analog to digital converter). An input meter still functions when its Input Channel is muted. Ideally, the
highest levels of the signal should illuminate the -6 LED segment, but not the CLIP segment. Occasional
flashing of the CLIP segment may be sonically acceptable.
LED Segment Signal Level
Clip Red 0 dBFS
- 6 Yellow -6 dBFS
-12 Green -12 dBFS
Sig Green -40 dBFS
8 . 4 O u t p u t M e t e r s
Unlike the input meters, the four LED segments of each output meter make up two different meters.
8.4.1 SIG, -12, AND CLIP SIG SEGMENTS
These three segments monitor the signal level in dB below 0 dBFS (0 dB Full Scale), the clip level of the
DAC (digital to analog converter). An output meter still functions when its Output Channel is muted.
Ideally, you want the highest level to illuminate the -12 segment, but not the CLIP segment. You can set
levels lower than this, but understand that you are reducing the signal-to-noise ratio.
LED Segment Signal Level
Clip Red 0 dBFS
-12 Green -12 dBFS
Sig Green -40 dBFS
8.4.2 LIM SEGMENT
This segment monitors the limiter status referenced to the level set for the limiter threshold. The Lim
segment will indicate limiting even when its Output Channel is muted.
LED Segment Status
Lim Yellow On when the limiter threshold is exceeded and there is gain reduction
Occasional flashing is OK. However, if the LED is rapidly flashing yellow or is on steadily a large
percentage of the time, the input signal to the loudspeaker may be exceeding the loudspeaker’s capability
and the volume level should be reduced.
