Extron electronics XTP II CrossPoint Series User Manual

For each display scheme, the input buttons blink or light sequentially to indicate the approximate
volume of the selected output. Volume is defined as a percentage of the input audio signal
that is applied to the output. From 0% of volume, the first Esc (
>
) button push applies 5.5%
of the input audio signal. From 5.5% on, each Esc (
>
) push applies 1.5% more of the input
audio signal to the output:
• Push Esc (
>
) button again — 5.5% + 1.5% = 7% volume
• XTP II CrossPoint 1600 — Input 1 blinks slowly
• XTP II CrossPoint 3200 and XTP II CrossPoint 6400 — Input 1 lights steadily
• Push Esc (
>
) button twice more — 7% + 1.5% + 1.5% = 10% volume
• XTP II CrossPoint 1600 — Input 1 lights steadily
• XTP II CrossPoint 3200 and XTP II CrossPoint 6400 — Input 1 and Input 2
light steadily
• Push Esc (
>
) button 19 times more — 10% + (19 times 1.5%) = 38.5% volume
• XTP II CrossPoint 1600 — Input 1 through Input 5 light steadily and Input 6
blinks
• XTP II CrossPoint 3200 and XTP II CrossPoint 6400 — Input 1 through
Input 11 light steadily and Input 12 blinks
When all input buttons are lit, the audio output is 100% of the audio input level.
Another way to view the volume level is to think in terms of the attenuation that is applied to
the output. Attenuation reduction is indicated by the lit or blinking input buttons: when fewer
input buttons are lit, attenuation is greater (and the volume is quieter).
• At minimum volume, all input buttons are unlit or background illuminated and 76 dB of
attenuation is applied to the output. The audio output is effectively muted.
• The first step of volume increase causes Input 1 to blink. Attenuation is reduced by
13 dB (63 dB of attenuation is applied to the output).
• The second step of volume increase reduces the attenuation by an additional 1 dB
(62 dB of attenuation is applied to the output). (On the XTP II CrossPoint 3200 and
XTP II CrossPoint 6400, Input 1 lights steadily.)
• Successive steps of volume increase cause consecutive input buttons to first blink and
then light steadily. (On the XTP II CrossPoint 3200, each consecutive button indicates a
1 dB attenuation reduction when blinking and a 2 dB attenuation reduction when lit.)
For example: When lit steadily, Input 3 indicates the following, depending on the
switcher model:
• XTP II CrossPoint 1600 — 52 dB of attenuation when compared to Input 3
blinking (53 dB to 55 dB of attenuation). Input 4 blinking (49 dB to 51 dB of
attenuation) is at least 2 dB less than Input 3 blinking (53 dB minus 51 dB) and at
most 6 dB less (55 dB minus 49 dB).
• XTP II CrossPoint 3200 and XTP II CrossPoint 6400 — 58 dB of attenuation
when compared to Input 3 blinking (59 dB of attenuation). Input 4 blinking
(57 dB of attenuation) is 6 dB less than Input 2 steadily-lit (60 dB minus 57 dB).
• On the XTP II CrossPoint 3200 and XTP II CrossPoint 6400, the volume indications
of the buttons are additive.
For example: Input 1 lit (23 dB [22 dB + 1 dB] of attenuation reduction), Input 2
lit (2 dB [1 dB + 1 dB] of attenuation reduction), and Input 3 blinking (1 dB of
attenuation reduction) indicate that the output attenuation has been reduced by a
total of 25 dB (22 dB + 2 dB + 1 dB = 25 dB).
• At full volume, no attenuation is applied to the output and all input buttons are lit steadily.
