gramming and activating at least one 8400 GPI input. If you have the same
subcarrier injection at all times, a more convenient alternative is to set the de-
sired modulation level by using the
Composite Level control(s). Then turn up
the pilot injection control until the injection equals 9% modulation.
10. Choose a factory preset.
A) Locate to the Choose Preset screen (System Setup: Quick Setup 8).
B) Using the Locate joystick up/down control or turning the control knob, highlight a
preset corresponding to your format. Press
Enter to put the highlighted preset on
the air.
Preset names are just suggestions, and some of the most competitive presets
(the “Loud” and “Impact” families) are purposely not named for formats be-
cause these presets can be used in a wide variety of competitive mass-appeal
music formats.. Feel free to audition different presets and to choose the one
whose sound you prefer. This preset may have a very different name than
the name of your format. This is OK.
You can easily modify a preset later with the 8400’s one-knob
Less/More
feature. Refer to Section 3.

Congratulations! You are now on the air with your initial sound. Feel free to read
the material in Section 3 of this manual, which describes the various presets and
how you can customize them to an almost unlimited extent.
You can easily modify a preset with the 8400’s one-knob Less/More feature.
Navigate to the Basic Modify screen. If you do not see the Less/More screen
immediately, press and hold the
Locate joystick to the right or left until you
find the screen. Turning
Less/More up will produce more loudness but also
more processing artifacts like distortion and unpleasant density. Turning
Less/More down will make the sound cleaner, more open, and easier to listen
to, but will also make it quieter.
11. Complete Station ID.
The Station ID is an optional setting that you can provide to associate the 8400
with the station providing the program material (e.g., “WXXX”). The Station
ID appears on the Meters screen to the left of the date, and on many other
screens, in the left pane, above the date.
A) Locate to the Station Identifier screen (System Setup: Quick Setup 9).
B) To erase the default Station ID name, use Locate to highlight Clear, then press En-
ter
.
C) Enter in your Station ID name.
For each keypad item, Locate to the item and press Enter.
For upper case letters, first press Enter on the Shift key.
D)
When finished entering your name, highlight Save and press Enter.
