Automatic Features
Regular mic and stereo line input modules can have their output
assign buttons slave off of the SPD-600 telephone module output
buttons. If this feature has been programmed on desired source mod-
ules, when it’s time to go on-air with a phone segment all you need do
is hit PGM on the phone module, and the PGM button on, say, your CD
input module (and the DJ’s mic module) will follow suit.
Note while this feature will turn slaved assign buttons ON, it will not
turn them OFF; you must do this manually.
Faders can be optionally equipped with end-of-travel CUE switches,
which will allow you to talk off-air with a caller with a simple fader
overpress. One of the faders can also have an optional EFS type switch
to automatically turn the module on when it is run up.
The channel ON (red) and OFF (amber) switches are at the bottom
of the module. These can be programmed (via internal PCB-mounted
dipswitches) to activate control room and studio mutes, tallies, timer
restart and automatic cue drop-out. The ON switch can also automati-
cally trigger an external tape machine for recording purposes (see page
10-7).
Cue Dropout can also be programmed internally (page 10-5),
making it unnecessary to de-activate caller setup buttons before going
live; simply pressing the module’s ON switch will automatically do
this for you.
Inputs and Outputs
All audio and control signals hook-ups are made via two multi-pin
DB-25 connectors mounted in the bottom of the console’s mainframe,
directly underneath each module. The upper connector handles hybrid
input signals (i.e., caller input) and the external input mentioned on
page 10-2. The lower connector handles outputs, including the mod-
ule1 and 2 feeds to your station hybrid (the phone signals going to your
callers).
The module also has three addition output feeds on the lower DB-
25 connector. These are generally used for recording purposes:
Composite Out – This includes everything: DJ, callers, music beds,
etc. Generally used to to record phone segments in advance of
actual airplay.
Composite Minus Callers – This includes everything but the callers.
Callers Only – No talent, no DJs, no music; just caller voices.
