5315 LEVEL SETTING PROCEDURES
CHANNEL AND OUTPUT AMPL IF I ER LEVEL SETT I NG PROCEDURE
l. Set all channel faders to the "0" position.
Set the group and main output faders to the "0" position.
Turn the master auxilliary level controls fully on in the clockwise direction.
Set all the channel input selectors to LINE input and set the gain controls to
the "0" position.
(N.B. DO NOT TOUCH ANY OF THESE FADERS OR CONTROLS AGAIN DURING
LEVEL SETT ING).
In all level setting procedures a low distortion 1KHz sine wave is used.
2. Insert an input level of OdBu into the line input of channell.
3. Measure the "FEED ON" level to the main 0l p1 bus barfrom chan. 1 (the feed on
level is measured either at the output pins of the chan. switching module or where
the white cable from the switching module socket is connected to the bus feed on
I ~ esistor). Adjust the preset potentiometer in chan. 1 switching module until the
feed on level corresponds to the level shown by the chart on the wiring diagram.
A I so check that the ma in olp 1 "BUS LEVEL" corresponds to the leve I shown by
the chart. (The bus leve I can be measured at the red pins connected to the bus bar~).
Deselect chan. 1 to main 0/ p1.
4. Route chan.1 to each output INDIVIDUALLY by selecting the appropriate sw i tch
on chan.1 switching module and ensure that the feed on and bus levels are correct
for each output respective I y.
5. Measure the signal level at MA IN 1 output. Reselect chan. 1 to main 0l p1 and adjust
the pre-set resistor in the MAIN 0l p1 Bus Amplifier (accessible from the front of
the module) unti I the output signal is OdBu.
Deselect chan.1 to main 0l p1 switch
6. Repeat procedure (5) for main 0/ p2, groups 1-4, aux 1-4 and solo outputs by
selecting each ol p individually and measuring the signal at the respective al p.
(NOTE:- The solo signal level is measured at the SOLO INSERTION POSITION).
- 1/ .',
7. Insert an input level of OdBu into channel 2 line input. Route chan.2 to main 0/p1.
Measure the signal level at the output of main 0/ p1.
Adjust the pre-set level control in chan.2 switching module until main 0l p1 level
is OdBu.
Deselect chan 2 to main ol pl switch.
8. Repeat procedure (7) for the remaining channels selecting each in turn to main 0 Ip 1.
