DigaStudio: Functional Specification

2.4.1 Monitor matrix

There are 3 outputs for monitoring:

•

2 x Headphones, stereo, unbalanced (6.3 mm stereo jack)

•

1 x Speakers, stereo, balanced (XLR)

The control pad allows the following sources to be selected: LINE1, LINE2, AV/ AUX, AWS/PCX,
TELEFON, ISDN, DIG, MAIN  , N-1 ISDN, N-1 TEL. The PC software allows the user to select all
available sources for monitoring.

The 

headphone output

 has a SPLIT mode by which the selected source signal is sent to the left

headphone channel and the main sum signal sent to the right headphone channel (both in mono). In
order to alleviate tiredness resulting from extended headphone use a switchable stereo-to-binaural
function is provided. A headphone output is available on the control panel and the interface unit.

The 

loudspeaker output

 can either be switched to the main sum signal (

   button) or to follow the

monitoring selection. In the case off internal red light condition the loudspeaker output is automatically
muted. The 

 CUT button allows for the loudspeaker output to be explicitly muted without having to

make changes to the loudspeaker volume settings.

The volume level for the headphones and loudspeakers can be controlled independently of one
another.

2.5  GPI / external level meters

For fader start, red light and other signaling 8 open-collector outputs are provided; the functional
programming is performed via the PC software, mainly without any restrictions. A button is provided
specifically for the control of an external telephone hybrid (take over function).

For any return signals 8 optically-decoupled inputs are provided, whose evaluation is also configurable
via the PC.

Another output is provided for the connection of an external level meter for the summer signal.

The GPI signals and external level meter are fed out to two 15-pin sub-D connectors.
