Owner’s Manual

Talkback / Oscillator

Here’s how you can send a sine wave or pink noise from the internal oscillator to the desired bus.

In the DISPLAY ACCESS section, press the

[MONITOR] button repeatedly to access the

OSCILLATOR screen.

In the OSCILLATOR screen you can check the set-

tings of the oscillator and turn it on/off.

OUTPUT button

This switches the oscillator on/off.

MODE ﬁeld

Move the cursor to a button in this ﬁeld to select the

desired type of oscillator.

Parameter ﬁeld

Here you can adjust the parameters of the oscillator

you selected in the MODE ﬁeld. Use the dial or the

[DEC]/[INC] keys to operate the knobs shown in the

ﬁeld.

Oscillator level

This indicates the output level of the oscillator.

ASSIGN ﬁeld

This selects the buses to which the oscillator signal

will be sent. If you want to clear all selections, move

the cursor to the CLEAR ALL button and press the

[ENTER] key.

Use the buttons in the MODE ﬁeld to select

the type of signal you want to output.

You can choose from the following signals.

If you want to adjust the oscillator parame-

ters, use the dial or the [DEC]/[INC] keys to

operate the knobs shown in the ﬁeld.

The parameters shown in the parameter ﬁeld will

depend on the type of oscillator selected in the MODE

ﬁeld.

The following table lists the oscillator types and the

parameters displayed for each type.

The following table describes each parameter in detail.

Using the buttons in the ASSIGN ﬁeld,

select the bus(es) to which you want to

send the oscillator signal. (You may select

more than one.)

The buttons correspond to the following buses.
