Description This display allows you to assign a mix of input signals to each of the output channels.
Available Controls To access Input Routing, use the rotary encoder dial from the DSP menu to highlight, then press to select.
Navigation Soft Key: Back to CONFIG menu.
Rotary Encoder: Scrolls through output channels.
Menu Soft Key #5: Enables the selection of two input channels pages. Use the rotary encoder dial to toggle between input channel groupings A-D
or E-H.
Menu Soft Key #1-4: Enables the selection of one of the displayed input channels. A second press of the soft key will toggle between states “OFF”
and a user-adjustable gain value. Once an input channel is highlighted and showing a gain value, use the rotary encoder wheel to dial the desired
amount of signal to be applied to the displayed channel.
Options OFF, -60dB to 0dB in 1dB increments
Notes Bose suggests that you first configure output modes (MAIN MENU < CONFIG < OUTPUT CONFIG) before performing input routing.
