This sets the level that the monitor will dim when you press the [DIM] button.
It defaults to -20dB, and can always be reset to this value by pressing the
[CLR] button when in this menu. You can change the amount of dim by turning
theSpinKnob or using the DSC [+]/[–] keys. Pressing [F4] will automatically
make the monitor dim when the [TB MIC] key is pressed. The square to the
left of TB in the menu, indicates when this function is enabled.
[Esc] back to the Monitor Set menu, or just press the Monitor [SET] key again.
Press [F3] (I/C) to toggle the Automute function. This function switches off the
speaker unless its SET key is selected. You would set the Automute function
on when you wanted to use 2 or 3 of the monitor outputs as intercancelling
monitors (e.g., you wanted to switch between two or three monitors in the
same room, such as small and large monitors and only wanted one speaker
active at a time). When Automute is selected a square indicator lights to the
left of the I/C indication in the SmartDisplay.
Each monitor has this function, so you could set it on Monitor B and C but not
on A. In this example, monitors B and C would be intercancelling (I/C) and
would switch from B to C as you hit the appropriate [SET] key. Monitor A
would always be on and could therefore be used as a studio loudspeaker feed.
This last option allows one monitor output to be controlled by another
monitor’s level control. You could use this for 4-channel or 6-channel monitor
level control. Go to the Mon C Set menu and press [F4] a couple of times.
Notice that it sequences between LINKC, LINKA, and LINKB. Set it to LINKB:

Now both Monitor B and C are controlled from Monitor B, so you have a single
level control for each of the B and C outputs. You will notice that both B and C
