2.4 SECONDARY FUNCTIONS
The 1788-R has a set of functions not directly accessible from the front panel. These functions, named
secondary functions, are accessed by pressing down both TEST TONE buttons and a pre-designated
CHANNEL SELECT button. To Exit this mode, press any key.
CLIP/LIM MEMORY FUNCTION. (Press both TEST TONE buttons and CHANNEL SELECT #6).
To be able to indicate a single, fast Clip/Lim event and give the user of the 1788-R a chance to
react to the event, the 1788-R’s Clip/Lim indicators has a built-in user-definable memory function.
This means every time the remote receives a signal level meter feedback indicating a Clip/Lim situ-
ation, the related LED (Local Block and Selection and Validation Block) will illuminate for a pre-
defined period of time. Each time the remote receives a new feedback telling that the same channel
is in a Clip/Lim situation the time is reset. The time is programmable in steps 0 to 4 equaling the
times of 1,6,12,18 and 24 seconds. The memory time is adjusted by rotating the GAIN CONTROL
knob, and the adjusted time appears in the status display.
When a Clip/Lim situation is received for a unit not selected with the UNIT SELECT buttons, the
CLIP/LIM LED for that specific unit will illuminate ONLY in the Selection and Validation Block. By
selecting the unit with the UNIT SELECT button while the CLIP/LIM LED is illuminated, the memo-
ry time is reset, and the Local Block now indicates (using the independent channel CLIP/LIM
LED’s), which channel(s) was causing the Clip/Lim situation to occur in the first place.
Note: This programmable Clip/Lim Memory Function gives the user a change to react to a
single Clip/Lim situation that otherwise would have been impossible to detect without
constant monitoring of the signal level meter from all channels in use.
DIMMING (Press both TEST TONE buttons and CHANNEL SELECT #7)
To enable your Model 1788-R to integrate into varying lighting conditions, we have added the capa-
bility to adjust the brightness of the front panel display. The brightness level is set in steps from 0
to 4 (4 is brightest). Brightness is adjusted by rotating the GAIN CONTROL knob, and the adjusted
level appears in the status display. To exit this function, press any button on the front panel.
FLASH PROGRAM VERSION (Press both TEST TONE buttons and CHANNEL SELECT #8).
To verify which Flash Program Version your 1788-R is running, the version number can be
displayed in the Preset Handling Block’s display. At the time of publication, the current version was
"FL B". You can get new software releases on our web site, www.aphex.com, posted under down-
loads or you can contact Aphex Systems’ customer service.
