The Ethernet connection is 100Base-T full duplex. An external Ethernet router / switch 
may be added for added flexibility and performance.   

2.3  Front Panel LED display and selection buttons 

 

 

 

 

 

 

16 dual colour (green / blue) Light Emitting Diodes(LEDs) and 2 press button switches 
are fitted at the right hand end of the front panel.  

The top row of LEDs  is associated with the 8 inputs (sources)  with one LED for each 
input, 1 to 8, left to right. 

The lower row of LEDs is associated with the 8 outputs (zones) with one LED for each 
output, 1 to 8, left to right. 

  

The  LEDS  may  be  off  or  on  in  one  of  3  different  colours  corresponding  to  different 
operation modes. 

2.3.1.1 

GREEN LEDS:

 DISPLAY MODE. 

When  the  LEDs  are green  the  top  row  of  LEDs indicate  the  inputs  (sources)  that  are 
connected to an output (zone).  

The  lower  row  of  LEDs  indicate  the  outputs  (zone)  that  are  connected  to  an  input 
(source). 

2.3.1.2 

BLUE LEDS:

 SELECTION MODE. 

After a button is pressed the display is in selection mode for a period of time.  

CONSTANT: A constant BLUE led indicates a selected input or output. 

FLASHING: A flashing BLUE led indicates a pending change. 

2.3.1.3 

CYAN LEDS:

 ZONE LOCK MODE.  

Constant  Cyan  LEDs  indicate  locked  mode  where  an  output  (zone)  has  been 
exclusively  locked  to  a  specific  input  (source).  For  further  information  on  Zone  Lock 
mode, refer to the Features section.
