POWERING THE SL-2
The SL-2 is powered by the Scorpio via the Expansion Port. No addi-
tional power source is needed to power the SL-2.
To activate the SL-2, set the System>Expansion Port menu to On.
Save power when the SL-2 is not in use by setting the Expansion Port
menu to Off. When the Expansion Port is set to Off, the SuperSlot
menu is grayed out.
ROUTING SL-2 SOURCES TO CHANNELS
The SL-2 has a total of 12 sources, up to eight channels of wireless
from the two slots (A1-A4, B1-B4) plus four channels of AES from the
rear panel TA3 ports. Only eight of these sources can be used at any
one time. AES 3 and 4 cannot be selected when a slot receiver output
is analog.
To route an SL-2 Source to a channel, access a channel’s source
screen and select from A1-A4, B1-B4, AES 1-4. When A1-A4, B1-B4
are selected as source, use the */** toggle as a shortcut to the
selected receiver’s setup screen.
For SL-2 A1-A4, B1-B4, and AES 1-4 sources, channel trim gain range
is -20 to 50 dB.
When the A10-RX is receiving signal from the A20-Mini, the trim gain
of the associated 8-Series channel is 0 to 60 dB. See GainForward.
RF OVERLOAD LEDS Each antenna input on the front panel of the
SL-2 has an associated LED that displays incoming RF level status.
Red = approaching RF overload threshold of the SL-2
Orange = approaching overload threshold of digital wireless systems
Off = no overload
To disable the LEDs go to SL-2 Options>Antenna LEDs and set to Off.
