SHLD – SW1000XG HOLD. This menu option allows you to set the PLUGSTATION to wait for SW1000XG
wordclock signals if connected on power up. Basically to help PLUGSTATION correctly set its wordclock
before startup. If this option is enabled/ON (as it is by default) it will wait on power up until you either press
the DATA ENTRY knob to bypass the wordclock wait state and drop to stand alone mode, or will wait until it
receives a sync signal from the SW1000XG. The value range for this is ON or OFF.
Pressing the DATA ENTRY knob for 2 seconds again now will take you back to the CARD level. (DOT LED
under the CARD label). Scrolling clockwise will then take you to the next set of parameters.
YOPL – Y- BOARD MASTER OUTPUT LEVEL. This parameter allows gain scaling to the master output
levels for each output of the Y-BOARD (if fitted). This parameter can add extra gain scaling to the master Y-
BOARD individual outputs. The reason for this is that by default the master output levels for the
PLUGSTATION are set to a value of 70-73 (out of 127). This is due to the fact that multiple PLG boards
feeding to the same digital output can sometimes overload the output gain, and cause distortion (which in
some cases may be a desired effect). The gain override allows you to bypass this for each port, and in effect
get a higher output level for each of the 8 individual outputs. The value range for this is 0-127 (0 being off,
127 being full). Each output is also selectable in turn, shown by OUT 1-8 being displayed on the LED
display. Please exercise caution when increasing the level beyond its default, as you may find that you may
distort the outputs if you have several boards in place.
