T U V The Meterpod
The Console Meterpod
The ML5000 continues the Allen & Heath tradition
to provide full signal metering at all key stages in
the signal chain. The channel LED meters give you
important signal information and multipoint peak
sensing. The output LED meters display the pre-
fade mix levels. The meterpod displays all the post-
fade main output levels including groups, auxes,
matrix and main, as well the PFL/AFL metering of
any signal in the console.
The meterpod is a low profile, full length integral
design that cannot be removed. It has 19
illuminated moving coil VU meters. The right hand
VU meters can be switched to display either Aux 9-
16 or Matrix 1-8 outputs. For example you could
configure the console to display Groups 1-8, LCR,
and Matrix 1-8 on the meters in front-of-house
mode, or Aux 1-16 in stage monitor mode.
The 3 main output meters are duplicated on both
VU and LED bar meters so that the main or
PFL/AFL signals can be checked for average and
peak levels simultaneously. Bright red LEDs light
when an input PAFL or output AFL has been
selected. The meters switch to display the PFL or
AFL signals in mono or stereo+mono. Stereo AFL
displays the left and right signals as well as the
summed mono signal so that mono compatibility
can be checked.
A large CALL lamp is positioned centrally to grab
the attention of the operator when the intercom is
being signalled.
Four console lamp connectors are positioned on the
rear of the meterpod. Standard 4-pin right-angled
XLR gooseneck Littlites are recommended.
