HOT TIP!
Note that while we suggest powering the system off and back on in case of problems,
the system should be stable and this should not be required on a routine basis. If you
experience frequent difficulties contact Technical Support for assistance, we are here
to help.

Level Metering
The Telos 2101 Studio Interface and Telos TWO hybrid include two dual LED dual meters.
As is customary with digital equipment, these are peak reading meters with the topmost
segment representing 0dBfs (digital 0). The following block diagram indicates where the
metering takes place. Note that all metering occurs in the digital domain. The metering is
designed so that the highest peak reading persists for a few seconds to aid in perceiving short
peaks. As with any digital system there is no level beyond 0dBfs and you must not attempt to
exceed that level or severe distortion will result. Since voice tends to be very dynamic, plus
the are huge variations in level due to varying operators, we suggest that the input level be
configured such that the red LEDs rarely, illuminate.
