FIVE Monitor Functional Description 4.12
w
ØØ ((PPhhaassee))
Pressing the Ø (Phase) switch reverses the phase of the output, to allow experi-
mentation for best feedback immunity with a multiple-mic setup. The switch is
illuminated when the phase is reversed.
e
IINNSSEERRTT ((OOUUTT))
The Insert Point consists of separate Send and Return jacks on the rear panel.
The Send is normalled to the Return.
The OUT switch bypasses the Insert Point when pressed, but leaves the pre-fade
output signal on the Send jack to feed external equipment if required. The switch
is illuminated when the insert is bypassed.
r
GGRRPP TTOO LL//RR
The internally illuminated L and R switches route the post-mute, post-fade output
signal to the last pair of output busses (designated L and R) for subgrouping. This
allows the FIVE Monitor to be used as a Front-of-House mixer if necessary, sum-
ming the Groups for a pair of stage fills, or perhaps giving a simple and quick
method for the Monitor Engineer to make a 2-track recording of certain channels
for later reference.

SSOOLLOO TTRRIIMM
SOLO TRIM gives +/- 10dB adjustment to the signal sent from that Output to the
AFL/PFL bus. This is useful for trimming a number of Outputs of varying levels to
give a consistent monitor level, thus reducing the requirement for manual Wedge
or ALT master adjustments whenever a SOLO is selected.
y
GGLLOOBBAALL MMOODDEE ((SSTTEE))
The GLOBAL MODE STE switch (not present on Output modules 1-4 of a 24-
bus FIVE Monitor which are mono only) provides switching of the associated pairs
of send controls on the input channels between MONO and STEREO operation.
In STEREO mode, the SOLO switches on the two Outputs are linked in software,
so that pressing one automatically activates the other. See SOLO below for infor-
mation on how this switch affects the sends to the SOLO busses.

SSOOLLOO // AALLTT
The SOLO switch feeds the pre and post-fade Group signal to one of two sets of
PFL and stereo AFL busses: Main or Alternate, depending on the setting of the
mechanically latching ALT switch
i
. The PFL / AFL state of the SOLO is affect-
ed by the global PFL/AFL mode switch on the Master module. The PFL feed is
post-INSERT.
The function of the Output SOLO switch is also affected by the GLOBAL MODE
(STE) switch. If the mode is mono, each Output SOLO button switches an equal
feed at unity gain to each of the AFL left and right busses, and a PFL signal to the
PFL bus. If the mode is stereo, the odd and even SOLO switches are logic linked
as a pair and the feed is changed to odd Group AFL to left AFL bus, even to right,
at unity gain. The PFL feed remains mono.
The SOLO swithces can also remotely control a BSS Varicurve system - see
page 4.20 for details.
MMEETTEERRIINNGG
The FIVE Monitor is fitted with two banks of VU Meters for all Group outputs,
with switching of the lower bank to display Matrix outputs if required. Two large
VUs read the Left and Right outputs.
