Front Panel Features
Phase Indication LEDs
These three LEDs indicate the instantaneous and average phase (polarity) conditions between the two signals in the channel
pair (or downmix) assigned to the left and right speaker channels. The two smaller LEDs labeled FAST show instantaneous
phase relationships in the signal. The larger LED labeled AVG will indicate the average phase condition. Indication is as
follows:
• The left FAST LED glows (or blinks) GREEN for in-phase signals.
• The right FAST LED glows (or blinks) AMBER for out-of-phase signals.
• The large AVG LED indicates the average phase condition by glowing GREEN for in-phase signals, or RED for
out-of-phase signals.
In general, observing the AVG LED alone is sufficient for proper phase monitoring. While it is normal for stereo signals to
contain some intermittant instantaneous out-of-phase and in-phase conditions (FAST LEDs), a steady RED glow of the
AVG LED indicates an out-of-phase alarm condition.
Balance Control
This control changes the volume balance between the left and right speaker channels. Note that this control attenuates the
signal from the source, so that the left and right bass frequencies (summed together and reproduced in the woofer channel)
will respond to balance adjustments in tandem with the left and right speaker channels. See page 16 for more information
concerning the balance control characteristics.
