(See Figure 1)
1. MicrophoneChannel Gain Controls1--4: At“0” position, mi-
crophone channel is removed from operation. Turning control
clockwise activates microphone channel and allows adjust-
ment of microphone level.
2.Input NormalGreenLED: Shouldflickerwith normalspeech
levels.
3. Input High Red LED: Should flicker only on loud speech
peaks.
4. Flat (
)/Low--Cut ( ) Slide Switches: Provide low--fre-
quency rolloff to reduce undesirable low-- frequency s ignals
such as wind noise.
5. MASTER Rotary Control: Determines the level of the com-
bined input signals at Mic/Line, Tape and Phones outputs.
PULL FOR 1 kHz TONE position activates 1 kHz tone oscilla-
tor(tonelevelisdeterminedbyMastercontrolsetting).Oscilla-
tor signal appears at all outputs.When oscillator is not in use,
knob should be pushed in.
6.PEAK/VU OutputLevel Meter:Meter functionis selectedby
adjacent PEAK/VU slide switch. In PEAK switch position, me-
ter indicates peak signal levels. In VU position,it indicates av-
erage signal levels, simulating a true VU meter.
7.BATTERYTESTMomentarySlide Switch:Operates incon-
junction with PEAK/VU Meter to indicate battery condi-
tion.With POWER switch on and switch in momentary--on po-
sition, new set of batteries lights all green LEDs. Number of
green LEDs lit indicates approximate battery life remaining
whenalkaline batteriesareused.NOTE:POWERLEDbegins
flashingwhentotalbatterysupplyvoltagedropsto10Vdc(one
green LED lit).
8.MANUAL/AUTOSlideSwitch: Selectsmanualorautomatic
microphone operating mode. In MANUAL position, unit oper-
ates as a conventional microphone mixer. In AUTO position,
unused microphones automatically turn off.
