Remote control receiver
When using the remote control system please point the F3001 handset in the
direction of the receiver.
It is essential to prevent potentially interfering light (from fluorescent lamps and
energy-saving bulbs) falling directly on the receiver, as this may markedly
reduce the effective range of the remote control system.
The line of sight between the F3001 and the remote control receiver in the
PA 3000 HV must not be interrupted by any obstacles. Installing the
PA 3000 HV behind the glass doors of a cabinet will also adversely affect the
remote control system.
The operating range of the F3001 remote control handset with the internal infra-
red receiver of the PA 3000 HV is about 4...5 m. In cases where operation from
a greater distance is desired or where the PA 3000 HV is placed outside the
direct line of sight from the remote control handset, the external IR-receiver
E2000 from the accessories can be connected to the PA 3000 HV (refer to p.
43, paragraph RC IN). By placing the E2000 at a proper location a trouble free
operation even under adverse conditions can be achieved.
All information relating to the machine’s status is displayed on the integral
graphic screen of the PA 3000 HV, as is the menu navigation system. The
screen brightness can be adjusted to any of several levels (see chapter entitled
‘Basic settings of the PA 3000 HV’).
The PA 3000 HV features two screen modes.
You can cycle through the both screen modes listed below by briefly pressing
the button on the machine, or the button on the F3001 handset.
Normal display
Detail display with VU meter - average value display with peak value
Large-format display of the most important information.
Display with additional superimposed level indicator (VU meter).
The displays and symbols shown on the screen vary according to the source
and settings which are currently active. The screen is divided into the following
areas:
Display area (a) shows the source name.
Display area (b) shows the volume level currently set.
Area (c) shows the type of connection in use for the set source. If the screen
shows ‘XLR’ at this point, then a symmetrical connection has been selected in
the Configuration menu.
Display area (d) with the level display (VU meter) is only superimposed if the
detail display is selected.
Level display
(VU meter)
The purpose of the VU meter is to display and monitor the modulation of the
PA 3000 HV.
This display is a combination of delayed average display plus the peak value
measured over the last three seconds.
