SR 1L Troubleshooting Double-check all wiring for accuracy before power is applied via the SRM 66. A single LED on the SR 1L should light immediately after SRM 66 power is applied. A blinking LED indicates that it has not yet detected communication on the Port. This is common until the SRM 66 has fully initial- ized but should not happen after that point. If after hook up and SRM 66 power up, an SR 1L LED blinks or does not Figure 7. Memory Recall Port (MRP) respond, one of several problems is t

APPLICATIONS One of the best ways to grasp the true versatility of the SRM 66 is to observe one in action. Figure 11 shows an installation using one SRM 66 to distribute sound throughout an entire manufacturing facility. Each Output can have different mix Inputs and Levels. For example, the offices may mix in a different page source than the shop floor. Also note that all three of the shop floor Outputs may have different mixes, Master Levels and Limiter thresholds. The use of Output Groups allo
