Description This display allows you to attenuate each configured output channel. For channels set to output modes other than Mono, attenuation control is
bound by the configured groupings. Two output channels are displayed at one time. Real-time output is displayed and affected by changing attenu-
ation.
Available Controls To access Output Atten, use the rotary encoder dial from the LEVEL menu to highlight, then press to select.
Navigation Soft Key: Back to LEVEL menu.
Menu Soft Key #5: Enables channel navigation using the rotary encoder.
Menu Soft Key #1 and #3: Enables the respective output channel to be selected. Use the rotary encoder to select attenuation values in dBFS.
Options -60dB to 0dB in increments of 0.5dB.

Description This display allows you to appropriately match each configured input channel to the incoming signal. This per channel setting corresponds to the
level that will create rated power out of the amplifier, with all other gains through the DSP signal processing chain set to 0 dB (unity gain). For best
noise performance use the highest setting you can, keeping peaks of the input signal as close to the sensitivity level as you can without exceeding
it.
Real-time output is displayed and affected by changing the sensitivity level.
Available Controls To access Input Sensitivity, use the rotary encoder dial from the LEVEL menu to highlight, then press to select.
Navigation Soft Key: Back to LEVEL menu.
Menu Soft Key #5: Enables the scrolling of four pages of two input channels using the rotary encoder.
Menu Soft Key #1 and #3: Enables the respective input channel to be selected. Use the rotary encoder to select sensitivity values in dBu.
Options -+0.0 dBu, +4.0dBu, +12dBu, +24dBu
