HARRIS CORPORATION
1 Introducing NetWave
Product Overview
NetWave is a low-profile, digitally-controlled, VistaMax-compatible audio console that sits on the countertop. Three frame sizes are available, with 8, 16 or 24 channel slots .
Each NetWave operates as a stand-alone con­sole but, for maximum flexibility and usability, can be tied into any VistaMax system (running 500-series code) by installing the optional Link Activation Kit (99-1425). The kit activates the built-in VistaMax Link which, via a single CAT-5e cable, ties the console to a VistaMax or Envo y Hub card to allow any system source (audio signals or audio signals with logic) to be routed to any Net­W a ve channel and to the External Monitor inputs.
The VistaMax Link also sends a number of Net­Wave signals to the VistaMax system including: one input from each channel (either the local ana­log or digital input can be chosen); each program bus output; both mix-minus outputs (which ha ve both a clean feed and an IFB feed); the two chan­nel Telco record output; and the stereo cue bus. These signals can then be routed to an y VistaMax system destination as required.
To further enhance a “Linked” console, an op­tional Dual F ader panel upgrade, the Dual Router Kit (99-1424), is also available. This kit adds in VistaMax source selection ability to both chan­nels on any Dual Fader panel.
The Reflective Displa y , with two stereo bargraph meters (PGM 1 and auxiliary), a clock which can be slaved to an ESE or a SMPTE master clock and an Event Timer, is integrated into the frame behind the control panels. Quad meter displa y kits are available for the NetWave-16 (99-1990-16Q) and for the NetWave-24 (99-1990-24Q) to add dedicated Program 2 and Program 3 meters.
Two 48-volt power supplies are used with Net­Wave consoles: a rack mount supply (99-1205), which is the same one used with VistaMax and
Envoy card frames and RMXd and BMXd con­soles, comes standard with the NetWave-24; while an in-line supply (50-27) comes standard with the NetW av e-8 and 16 frame sizes. A 99-1205 supply can also be used on the smaller NetWave frames.
An optional 90-1995 Power Coupler is avail­able to allow any NetWave console to be redun­dantly powered by coupling in a second matching 48-volt supply.
The NetWave has an all-aluminum chassis, which fully contains all circuit board electronics, for strength and RFI immunity. To ensure silent operation, all NetWave parts (console frame, con­trol panels, console display and power supplies) are convection cooled—meaning no fans, and com­pletely silent operation.
All user audio and logic connections are made from the top rear of the frame. Connector access is via a removable flip-open cover which hides the cabling and connectors during normal operation.

MAIN COMPONENT DESCRIPTIONS
NetWave board operators use three parts: the Dual Fader panels; the Monitor panel; and the Reflective Console Display . Each is cov ered in this section along with descriptions for the other parts making up the console: 48-volt power supplies, the Monitor & Output card, the DSP & I/O card, the VistaMax Link and the optional upgrade kits.
NetWa ve Dual Fader Panels
Each Dual Fader panel has two channel control strips. Each strip has the following features: sepa-
rate channel on and off buttons; a 100mm fader for channel level control; cue on/off button; A and B source selector buttons with a Take button; active source illuminated label; and five bus assignment buttons (four Program and one Offline).
Channel control is digi­tal, so no audio ev er trav­els through the Dual Fader panel. In fact, a Dual Fader panel can be swapped “hot” without af­fecting either channel’s audio performance.
Each Dual F ader panel plugs into a DSP & I/O card using a single red
Dual Fader Panel

HARRIS CORPORATION
1 Introducing NetWave
CAT-5 cable. Since each DSP & I/O card carries eight audio channels, up to four Dual Fader pan­els are plugged into each DSP & I/O card.
Each Dual F ader channel control strip has two audio inputs and one logic I/O connector associ­ated with it on the DSP & I/O card. Since each channel strip has two possible sources (A and B), which audio input is used for each source is as­signed during console setup . In the standard, non­linked, NetWave console the two possible inputs are the local analog input or the local digital in­put assigned to that channel on the DSP & I/O card. When the NetWave is linked to a VistaMax system, there are three selections per source: the local analog input, the local digital input, or a routed VistaMax source.
The operating parameters for each source, on each channel, are independently set during con­sole setup through a common group of setup but­tons and LEDs on each DSP & I/O card (shown in the illustration on the previous page). These controls set the parameters used when the A and the B source is selected. The parameters include: input type (is the input a control room mic, a stu­dio mic, a line input or a Telco input?); whether logic is be associated with that input; whether the event timer is reset at channel on; whether fader start is active; etc. The parameter settings are stored in nonvolatile RAM.
The channel strip’s A and B select buttons are used along with the Take button to choose the active source for that channel. W hen the A source is active, yellow LEDs backlight the A source la­bel under a smoked polycarbonate window above the A button, and the A button is lit. When the B source is active, red LEDs backlight the B source label above the fader and the B button is lit.
Setting a channel source to use the logic I/O means the channel can remotely control a periph­eral device (mic control panel, CD player, com­puter playback system, etc.) and that peripheral
can also control the channel. The logic I/O pro­vides fully independent parallel logic functions that: outputs start and stop pulses to line devices (on and off tallies to mic panels); receives channel on, off, cue and reset/ready commands from line devices (on, off, cough and talkback commands from mic panels).
Dual Router Channels
The optional Dual Router Kit changes the A/B selector buttons on both channels of any Dual Fader panel into VistaMax source selector Up/ Down buttons. To use this functionality, the console’s VistaMax Link must be active.
Dual Fader panels that have the Dual Router Kit installed are easily identified by the two 10­character signal name displays under the top half of the smoked polycarbonate lens above the fader . The display normally shows the name of the cur-
rent VistaMax source feeding that channel. But, when finding the next source by pressing an Up or Down button, the displayed name switches to show a po­tential Next Source for that channel. The yellow Next label above the Up button lights while the Next Source name is dis­played. Holding down, or repeatedly tapping the Up or Down button, steps alphanumerically through the list of poten­tial Next Source names available on that chan­nel.
Once the desired
Dual Router Panel
source name is shown,
HARRIS CORPORATION

1 Introducing NetWave
pressing the Take button selects that source—when the channel is off. New routed sources cannot be taken when the channel is on (the On button flashes three times to indicate the next source can­not be taken while the channel is on). But, a next source can be pre-selected and then taken once the channel is turned off.
Which sources are seen when the Up and Down buttons are pressed on the router channel is set using the VistaMax Control Center (VMCC) soft­ware, vers 1.1 or later. Each channel could be as­signed anywhere from one source up to every av ail­able source in the VistaMax system in its selection list. In regular use, the signal list is kept short to make it easy for board operators to easily find desired sources. If a board operator needs to se­lected a source that is not shown, pressing both the Up and Down buttons together turns on the Include All function, lighting up the red Include All label. Every source available to the console’s parent device is now displayed. Pressing both Up and Down buttons together again turns off the In­clude All function.
The VMCC 1.1 software is included on the Net­Wave CD-ROM (99-5001) that comes with the console.
To integrate the NetWave with a VistaMax or Envoy card frame, the VistaMax devices must be running 500-series code. The current operating system code build can be viewed by opening the release.txt file on the parent card frame or by using Community Monitor, another program included on the NetWave CD-ROM.

Monitor Panel
This standard panel is divided into three sections separated by double graphic lines. From left to right the sections, divided by main function, are: Aux Meter control; Control Room control; and Studio control.
Monitor Control Panel
Aux Meter Section
The top of all three sections have exclusiv e action source selector buttons to select one monitor signal from the PGM 1 thru 4 buses and the two External Monitor inputs. In the Aux Meter section, the buttons select which signal feeds the right-most meter in the Reflective Display, with the selected source name shown below the Aux Meter.
Note that the Aux Meter is normally set to alternately display the cue levels while cue is active (when the cue label is lit, Cue is displayed below the meter and the cue level is shown).

HARRIS CORPORATION

Several Control Room controls are located below the meter selector buttons in this section of the panel. They are covered in the Control Room Section that follows.
Control Room Section
The middle of the panel has the control room monitor source selector buttons and the two faders to control the room monitor speaker level and the operator headphone output level.
Any one source can be selected to feed all control room monitor outputs. The active source button lights to indicate its selection.
A cue speaker, at the left end of the console display, is level controlled by the cue pot in the middle of the left-hand section. A cue indicator (yellow) lights while cue is active.
A talkback pot controls the level of incoming talkback that feeds the cue speaker independently of the cue volume pot. A Talk to Control Room indicator (red) lights while a studio microphone is talking to the control room.
A control room monitor output fader and the operator headphone output fader are at the bot­tom of the center section.
The signal mode for both the control room and studio outputs is set by the Monitor Mode but­tons in the left-hand section (below the cue and talkback pots). The L and R buttons control whether the monitor signal for all outputs is ste­reo (when neither button is lit), left only (when L is lit), right only (when R is lit) or a mono sum signal (when L and R are both lit) where the left and right signals are summed together to feed all monitor outputs.
Just below the R mode button is the AutoCue button. When lit, the operator’s headphone out­put automatically switches to feed the cue bus into the operator’s headphones while cue is active. When unlit, cue activity does not affect the board operator’s headphone audio. AutoCue has two
modes of operation (set by switch DS1-3 on the Monitor & Output card). The default setting is Split Cue, where the monitor and cue audio are sepa­rately summed to mono before feeding the opera­tor headphones. Cue audio is sent to the one ear while the monitor audio goes to the other ear . T his is typically used when the console is in an on-air studio.
The second AutoCue mode is Stereo Cue, where stereo cue audio replaces the monitor audio source in the headphones. This setting may be desirable for production rooms and other off-air applica­tions.
Studio Section
The right-hand section of the Monitor panel has the monitor source selection buttons and level controls for a separate talk or voice studio. One source can be selected from among the six buttons at the top of the center section. The selected source button lights to indicate its selection.
The two pots in this section control the output level of a dedicated studio monitor output (Monitor) and the amount of talk to studio audio (Talkback) that is fed to the monitor output.
This section of the Monitor Control panel also has a Talk to Studio button to allow the board operator to talk to the studio using the board operator mic. If desired, multiple control room mics can be assigned as talk sources to enable both a board op and a producer to talk to the studio without having to add a mic control panel.
Five event timer control buttons are at the bottom of this section. Start, Stop, Hold and Reset manually control the event timer in the Console Display. When the Auto Reset button is lit, the timer can be reset automatically when a channel is turned on. Which channel sources reset the timer are set during installation using the DSP & I/O card setup controls.
HARRIS CORPORATION

Reflective Console Display
The integrated Reflective Console Display is lo­cated just behind the Dual Fader and Monitor panels. The standard display has two stereo bar­graph meters with the left one showing the PGM 1 output levels. The right-hand, or Aux Meter, shows a source selected using the Meter source controls on the Monitor panel. Two more stereo bargraph meters (for Program 2 and Program 3) can be added to the larger frame sizes by install­ing the optional Quad Meter kit.
A time of day clock and an event timer are also in the Console Display . The default operating mode for the clock is autonomous, meaning the clock runs independently and must be set by hand. The clock time remains current for about three days with the power off. After that, the time must again be set. The clock can alternately be slaved to a SMPTE, ESE TC-89 or ESE TC-90 master clock. In this mode, the time set buttons are not active.
The event timer is controlled by Monitor panel buttons, as well as reset commands from one or more channels when the Auto button is lit.
Monitor & Output Card
Each NetW a ve console has one Monitor & Out­put card with the user connections listed on page 1-2. The Monitor panel plugs into the Monitor & Output card, receiving power and control signals. The card also supplies power and clock signals, and sends and receives bused audio signals, to the DSP & I/O cards via a short flat cable jumper.
There are two LEDs, to indicate operational sta­tus (DSP clock and F ail), and a console reset but­ton located on the Monitor & Output card.
The Monitor & Output card is located below and behind the Monitor panel and Reflective Con­sole Display. In normal operation the card con­nections are hidden by a cosmetic flip-open rear cover.
DSP & I/O Cards
Each DSP & I/O card (Digital Signal Processor plus Inputs and Outputs) has the setup controls, audio inputs and logic I/O connectors for eight console channels. The channels are on the four Dual F ader panels that mount directly in front of each card. A DSP Active and a Fault LED indi­cate operational status on each card.
There is one DSP & I/O card on NetWave-8 consoles, two on NetWave-16 consoles and three on NetWave-24 consoles. In normal operation, the DSP & I/O cards are completely hidden from the operator by a cosmetic flip-up cover.
Each DSP & I/O card has twelve RJ-45 con­nectors. Eight are internal connectors for four Dual F ader panels (using red CA T-5 cables supplied with the frame); the other four RJ-45 connectors are for optional Dual Router Kits (which plug in us­ing a supplied blue CAT-5 cable). Customer-sup­plied CAT-5 cables then connect the Dual Router kits to the VistaMax LAN using the four rear panel RJ-45 passthru connectors.
Each DSP & I/O card has a common set of as­signment buttons and indicator LEDs to assign the parameter settings for each A and B source on the eight channels associated with that DSP & I/O card. The setup parameters include: input se­lection (analog, digital or network); mode selec­tion (stereo, L, R or mono); signal function (mic, line, Telco); whether the logic I/O is active; input left and right gain trims for both analog and digi­tal inputs; network source assignment; and other logic settings.
Pow er Supply
Two different power supplies are used with Net­Wave consoles. Each has a single 48-volt output on a keyed DC connector and each is supplied with a detachable IEC AC cord.
An in-line supply (50-27) is standard on the Net­Wave-8 and -16 consoles. It has a captive six foot

DC cable which allows the supply to sit below the console within the cabinetry. This supply is not recommended for use with a NetWave-24 console.
NetW av e-24 consoles ship with a Universal 48­volt Supply (99-1205), which is also used by VistaMax card frames and RMX soles. A fifteen foot detachable DC cable (90-1858-
1) connects that supply to the console.
One supply, either the 50-27 or the 99-1205, comes standard with each console. A second matching redundant supply can be connected to any NetWave console by using the optional 90­1995 Power Coupler.
NOTE: When adding a 99-1205 supply for redun­dant powering, order a 99-1205-1 supply (it in­cludes a 90-1858-1 fifteen-foot DC cable).
The 99-1205 supply has a recessed front panel on/off switch and a green LED to indicate the 48­volt output is good. The 50-27 supply has a green LED on the top of its case to indicate its 48-volt output is good but it does not have a power switch.
Each supply is designed for continuous 24/7 operation and is fully regulated and protected against excessive current by internal fuses and elec­tronic safeguards.

and BMXd con-
VistaMax Link
The RJ-45 VistaMax Link connector is located next to the DC input connector on the rear panel. This connector links the NetWave console to a Vis­taMax or Envoy Hub card in order to network the console with a VistaMax system. The optional Link Activation Kit must be installed to use the Link connection.
Once activated, the Link sends up to 32 stereo signals (the four program buses, cue bus, Telco record output, two dual channel mix-minus sig­nals and one input from each channel) to a VistaMax network as source signals. Up to 26 ste-
reo destinations (two routed External Monitor in­puts and one input for each channel) are routed from the VistaMax system to the console.

Console Installation
The 99-5001 NetWave CD-ROM has several video files on console installa­tion; on installing optional items; on setting up the console channels; and on typical console operations.
GENERAL WIRING INFO
To facilitate console installation, create a wire list of all console interconnections to and from pe­ripheral devices. Identify and create tags for each audio and logic cable. List these connections in a master facility wiring logbook to ease installation, future system wiring or equipment changes and system troubleshooting.
Pages 2-18 to 2-22 cov er wire preparation and connector installation. Page 2-23 has block dia­grams for the various NetWave logic connectors. Pages 2-27 to 2-30 show typical peripheral con­nections for a mic, a CD player, a computer play­back system and linking to a VistaMax system.
Audio cables to/from the console should always be run with the maximum practical distance from all AC power mains wiring within the cabinetry. The console’ s 48-volt power cable carries only DC voltage so audio wiring can run parallel or be tie wrapped to this cable without problem.
The channel audio and logic wiring connects sequentially along the back of the console in eight channel groups. The chassis metal is cutaw ay be­tween the DSP & I/O cards to facilitate getting
the connectors and wiring up through the coun­tertop.
To ease installation, break out each group of cables, using the dimensions shown below as mea­sured from the right end of the cutout. Cabling is normally broken out and tie wrapped to the bot­tom of the countertop just behind the cable cut­out. Lea ve a six to eight inch service loop on each cable to ease installation and future wiring changes. This extra cabling hangs down into the cabinet (or the cable tray) after being connected.
The monitor and program outputs connect at the right corner of the console along with the 48­volt supply, the optional Link cable and the tech­nical ground wire. The chassis is also cutout in this area to ease installation.
Plug in all audio and logic cables first. Then route the excess cabling (i.e., service loops) into the cabinet by folding the audio and logic wires over their connectors and arranging the cables to go into the gap between the connectors and the flip-up connector cover such that the cover sits down onto the chassis behind the console display .
The technical ground wire, DC cable and any Link and LAN cables can now be connected.
POWER SUPPLY PLACEMENT
Two types of power supplies are used with Net­Wave consoles. Each has a single 48-volt DC out­put using a keyed and locking connector. Each uses an IEC AC input cable which is shipped with a USA-type plug. The AC connector, or the IEC

cord, will have to be changed for overseas opera­tion. Both supplies operate from 90 to 240 VAC on 50 or 60 Hz power .
The 50-27 in-line supply comes standard on the NetWave-8 and NetWave-16 consoles. It has a captive six-foot DC cable, so it must be located near the right rear corner of the console. It is typi­cally set on the wire tray or within the cabinet (it can be tie wrapped to a vertical wall to save space). This supply will get warm under normal use as it uses free air space for ventilation, so it must never be covered or enclosed.
The 99-1205 Universal 48-volt Supply comes standard on the NetWave-24. It requires 2 RU of rack space within the console cabinetry, typically located below and to the left or right of the con­sole. It is the same supply used with VistaMax card frames and consoles. A detachable 15-foot DC cable (90-1858-1) connects this supply to the NetWave console.
Either supply must be installed such that the keyed 48-volt supply cable is not under any ten­sion when routed through the cabinet. The 48­volt cable locks into a keyed power connector on the right rear corner of the NetWave chassis.
A 90-1995 Power Coupler (optional) is avail­able to add a redundant power supply for on-air consoles. T he main and redundant power supplies plug into its special Y-cable, which then plugs into the console. It hangs below the countertop.
AC GROUNDING NOTE: Do not
defeat the IEC power cord “U” safety ground in any way, as this may create a potentially dangerous condition to the operator .
GROUNDING AND SHIELDING
Terminate the facility’s technical ground wire for the console into a crimped ring tongue termi­nal suitable for a #8 stud. Fasten the ground wire
Tie a 14-16 AWG ground wire to this screw using a ring tongue fastener
Technical Ground Connection Point,
NetWave Chassis, r ight rear view
to the NetWave chassis using the #8 chassis screw behind the Link connector.
When all system components share a common ground potential (by using isolated ground AC out­lets tied individually back to the main technical ground), the audio cable shields can be connected at both the console and the peripheral ends.
If isolated ground AC outlets are not used, con­nect the cable shields at the console end only. Do not connect the shields on the peripheral device end. Ensure the peripheral devices connect to a clean ground through their power cords or through separate ground wires to the facility’s technical ground.
GROUNDING NOTE: The Power Sup-
ply chassis connects to the AC mains safety or “U” ground wire.
AUDIO GROUND NOISES: Buzz
pickup is generally electrostatic—such as capacitive coupling between an au­dio line and an A C power line. To avoid audio ground noises, do not route au­dio wires in the same wireway as an AC power line.
NOTE: Strong electromagnetic fields
from peripheral equipment using switching power supplies may impair NetWave performance, so keep these products as far away as practical from the console’s location.

COUNTERTOP PREPARATION
Follow the dimensions listed on page 2-1 to mark and router the cable access opening through the countertop and substrate. Always radius the corners to prevent laminate cracks.
NOTE: If the console will be set against a wall,
leave a .5" [13] gap between the side panels and the wall in order to flip-up the connector cover.
Center the console over the cable access cutout so that the rear connector cover , when closed, cov­ers the cutout.
For security or stability the console can be fas­tened to the countertop. To do this, the leftmost Dual Fader panel and the Monitor Panel must be removed to access the two chassis holes (see page 2-1 for hole locations).
pilot holes for screws or clear holes for bolts. On laminate countertops it is important that the hole through the laminate is larger than the screw or bolt threads to prevent future laminate cracks.
Use #8 or #10 screws or bolts to fasten the con­sole to the countertop substrate. Do not deform the chassis, or unbalance the rubber feet, by ap­plying excessive torque on the screws or bolts.
NOTE: Install the optional Link Acti-
vation kit at this time while the Moni­tor panel is already out of the chassis. The install instructions are on the next page. Also, if changes are needed on the Monitor & Output card setup switches, they should be done at this time as well. Switch setting informa­tion is on page 2-10.
Removing Control Panels
Control panels are fastened to the frame using 3mm silver hex screws. The panels connect to frame cards using short red CAT-5 cables.
To remove a control panel:
1. Remove the 3mm hex screws that fasten the
panel to the frame (a hex driver is in the op­tional 76-1901 NetW a ve/SMXdigital toolkit).
2. Move that panel’s faders to full off and use the
two fader knobs to lift up the panel enough to remove the panel by its metal extrusion.
WARNING: The red CAT-5 cable connecting
the panel is short, so lift the panel up just enough to clear the console surface.
3. Unplug the CAT -5 cable from the panel. If the
panel is a Dual Router panel, there will be a two labeled CAT-5 cables.
Before marking the holes to fasten the console to the countertop , make sure the console is set par ­allel to the countertop edge and is covering the cable cutout. Mark, then move the console, to drill
Reinstall the panels into the frame, using the reverse order to their removal. T he red CA T-5 cable plugs into J5 on the Dual Fader panels.
INSTALLING CONSOLE OPTIONS
All NetW a ve consoles ship from the factory in a standard configuration. Any console options (Link Activation kit, Dual Router kit, Quad Meter pack­age, additional Dual Fader panels) will be sepa­rately packaged and must be installed into the console. Optional items can be installed during console installation or at any future time.
Installing the Link Activation kit or a Quad Meter package requires that the console be unpowered during the installation. The other kits can be installed while the console is powered.
Link Activation Kit
The Link Activation kit turns any NetWave from a non-networked, stand-alone console into a net­worked or Linked console that is ready to con­nect into a VistaMax audio management system.
HARRIS CORPORATION

2 Installation
The NetWave’s RJ-45 Link connector, next to the keyed DC power connector , ties the console to an available VistaMax Hub card facet using a CA T­5e or CAT-6 crossover cable. Cable runs of up to 300 feet [100 meters] are allowed.
Link activation adds the following capabilities to any NetWave console:
A network signal can be set as any channel’s
input for either the A or B source. The signal is selected using a VistaMax source selector, by a session or macro file entry or by install­ing a Dual Router kit in a Dual Fader panel.
A network signal can also be used for either
External Monitor input. The signal is set by a VistaMax source selector or by a session or macro file entry.
The console’ s buses (four programs, two mix-
minuses and cue) and one local input (analog or digital) from each channel become network sources, a vailable for routing to any VistaMax destination.
To install this kit, the Monitor panel must be removed. An installation video and a PDF file of the installation sheet are included on the 99-5001 CD-ROM.
NOTE: Discharge possible static
charges into the console frame before following this procedure and before handling the PROMs.
Link Activation Kit Installation
1. Turn off the console’s power supply.
2. Remove the Monitor panel, per the instruc-
tions on page 2-4.
3. Use the 70-134 PLCC removal tool (included
in the Link Activation kit) to remove PROM U64 from the Monitor & Output card. Place the two tool tips into the two open corners of the 21-352-3 PROM and then
squeeze the tool handles to “pop” the PROM out of the socket.
4. Place the 21-352-4 PROM into the U64 socket
with its pin 1 mark aligned with the pin 1 mark on the board. Firmly press down on the PROM to fully seat it in the socket.
5. Replace the Monitor panel (plug in the CA T-5
cable and fasten the panel to the frame).
6. Power up the console and verify that the

label is now lit on the Moni-
Vis-
tor panel.
Dual Router Kit
A Dual Router kit adds VistaMax source selec­tion capability to both channels on a Dual Fader panel. The Link Activation kit must be installed in order to use a Dual Router kit.
Any Dual Fader panel can have a Dual Router kit installed but, for most applications, between one and three Dual Fader panels will have kits installed. This results in two, four or six channels that can select their own VistaMax source. The re­maining channels can have a VistaMax source set as their A or B input, but they cannot locally change their VistaMax source.
A Dual Router kit consists of two 10-character displays for source name display; two

Quad Meter Package
This option replaces the standard console dis­play with a four meter display . Kits are only avail­able for NetWave-16 and NetW a ve-24 consoles.
The Quad Meter Package includes a new con­sole display housing and another meter board. The console’s original meter and clock-timer boards are moved to the new housing, which then replaces the original dual meter console display.
The Quad Meter P ackage has dedicated displays for PGM 1, PGM 2 and PGM 3, with the fourth meter (AUX) being used to display PGM 4 or an external monitor input.
Because the Quad Meter Package requires ex­tensive frame disassembly , the console power must be turned off during installation. For installation instructions, refer to the installation guide that comes with the package.
REFLECTIVE CONSOLE DISPLAY
The reflector can be inserted into its slot be­hind the console display at this time—if the best access to the console connectors is from the rear of the console. If the best access is from the front, wait until the wiring is completed before install­ing the reflector .
The reflector is shipped with protective paper stuck to both sides. This paper must be removed before installing the reflector.
NOTE: Handle the reflector by its edges
to prevent scratches and fingerprints. When the reflector is removed, place it on a lint-free cloth to prevent scratch­ing the reflective surface. Use a lint-free cloth dampened with either diluted dish soap or alcohol, or a damp cham­ois, to clean the surface.

Detail: Two rear panel screws hold reflector in place
installed into its slot. These screws are shipped installed and must be removed before the reflec­tor can be inserted into its slot.
Insert the reflector, with its notched edge be­hind the clock and timer , into the slot. The reflec­tor is designed to sit at a 22° angle toward the board op. This is assured by the two mounting screws. They should be installed once all console connections are finished and the console is ready for daily use. Before this time the reflector can sit in the slot without the screws for easy removal.
The standard Console Display has two horizon­tal stereo bargraph meters. Alphanumeric displays below each meter identify the signal displayed (PROGRAM 1, PROGRAM 2, etc.). T he standard meters provide simultaneous level monitoring of the Program 1 bus on the left-hand meter and another bus or system signal on the right-hand Auxiliary Meter , as selected by the Aux Meter but­tons on the Monitor panel.
An upgrade option (Quad Meter Package) adds two more meters so that all four Program buses can be displayed simultaneously. T his Quad Meter package upgrade displays Program buses 1, 2 and 3, plus the Auxiliary Meter selection. The Aux
meter functions the same as in the standard meter configuration.
Various meter, clock and timer parameters are set using switches on the meter (DS3) and clock­timer circuit boards (DS1). The procedure to change the switch settings is detailed in the fol­lowing sections. In summary, here are the various display parameters that can be changed, with their factory default setting listed first:

Setting The Clock
When used autonomously (the factory default setting), a quartz crystal oscillator controls clock timing. After applying power to the console, the clock must be manually set to the current time using the three recessed buttons adjacent to the clock display (shown on the next page). Use a blunt-tipped nonconductive object (wooden swab , toothpick, etc.) to press the recessed buttons.

The clock will keep time for about three days with the console powered off. Beyond this point the time will have to be reset again when autono­mous mode is used.
Removing the Console Display
The console display must be removed from the frame to change display settings, to connect a mas­ter clock or remote timer reset cable or to install the Quad Meter P ackage.
Each of these activities require accessing the meter and clock-timer printed circuit assemblies (PCAs) on the bottom of the console display. The console should be powered off when removing and reinstalling the display assembly . Two padded sur-

NOTE: When one of the master modes
is selected (see Clock Settings) and the selected format signal (ESE or SMPTE) is not present, the clock runs off its in­ternal oscillator. Both display colons blink to indicate the ESE or SMPTE timecode is not present or valid.
faces are required for this procedure. To remove the console display:
1. Flip-up the rear connector cover to access the
two rear corner 4-40 screws that hold the re­flector in place. Remove these screws.
2. Lift the reflector out of its slot. Place it on a
padded surface to protect its mirrored surface.
3. Remove the console display cosmetic cover
screws (two or four 4-40 Phillips screws). Re­move the cover by lifting it straight up.
4. Set the smoked display window (which was
sandwiched between the display cover and the main display subassembly) off to the side.
5. Remove the display subassembly mounting
screws (4-40 Phillips) along the front of the subassembly just above the control panels .
6. To protect the control panels and display sub-
assembly , lay padded material over the top half of the control panels. Lift the display subas­sembly up just enough to clear the frame, flip it forward and lay it facedown onto the pad­ded material. The display subassembly con­nects to the Monitor & Output board using two cables. Do not strain these cables while removing the subassembly and placing it onto the control panels.
7. Use the illustration on the next page to iden-
tify the switches and connectors on the clock­timer and meter PCAs.
SAFETY NOTE: Touch the metal chas-
sis to dissipate static before adjusting the switches or plugging in an ESE, SMPTE or remote timer cable. Do not touch any components on the PCAs other than the switches or connectors.
Reinstall the console display in reverse order . Use care to not pinch any cables between metal parts. Align the smoked display window holes with the clock set holes. T he cosmetic co ver holds it in place.

Clock Settings
Clock parameters are set using multi-switch DS1, located near the upper right corner of the clock-timer PCA. The default settings are all switches set to off.
When used autonomously, the clock time can display 12-hour or 24-hour time. Set DS1-4 to on to display 24-hour time. This setting is ignored when a master clock signal is used.
When an ESE TC-89 or TC-90 master clock is used, set DS1-2 to on. T he ESE signal type is auto­detected. When a SMPTE master clock is used, set DS1-5 to on. If both DS1-2 and DS1-5 are set on, only SMPTE is valid. An ESE signal will be ignored.
ESE, SMPTE & Remote Timer Reset
An ESE or SMPTE master clock signal con­nects to J4, pins 5 and 6. The signal is polarity sensitive, but can be balanced or unbalanced. Con-

Event Timer Settings
The event timer displays time in minutes, sec­onds and tenths of seconds. T he only timer setting (DS1-1) sets whether the tenths of seconds digit is displayed while the event timer is running .
When set off (the factory default) the tenths are always displayed. When DS1-1 is set on, the tenths of seconds are not displayed while the timer is running, but are displayed while the timer is stopped or is being held.

Meter Settings
The PGM 1 and Aux meter parameters are set using multi-switch DS3 (shown on page 2-9). The Quad Meter Package adds a second meter board. The left-hand board’ s DS3 settings affect the first pair of meters (PGM 1 and PGM 2) and the right­hand meter board’s DS3 settings affect the PGM 3 and Aux meters. Typically the two meter boards would be set to the same settings. The DS3 fac­tory settings are all switches set to off.
To turn off the peak displays and to show only the average meter lev els, set DS3-1 to on.
To have the Peak indicators decay immediately, switch DS3-2 to on.
To change the level where the Blue LEDs turn on: set DS3-3 and DS3-4 to off to turn on the Blue LEDs at -6 dBFS; set DS3-3 on and DS3-4 off to turn on the Blue LEDs at -4 dBFS; set DS3-3 off and DS3-4 to turn on the Blue LEDs at -2 dBFS.
DS3-5 and DS3-6 must be left set to off for Net­Wave consoles.
MONITOR & OUTPUT BOARD SETTINGS
The Monitor & Output board has two multi­switches to assign various parameters to the Moni­tor & Output board outputs. The factory default setting for all switches is off.
To access the switches, the Monitor panel must be removed from the frame. Follow the directions on page 2-4 to remove the panel.
DS1 and DS2 Settings
Multi-switches DS1 and DS2 are at the front edge of the Monitor & Output board, hidden be­low the Monitor panel in normal use. Here is what each switch does:
DS1-1 affects the Aux meter display. When off the cue level is displayed while cue is active. When set to on, the A ux meter does not display cue.
DS1-2 affects the Offline bus signals. When off, Offline signals are derived pre-fader . When on, the Offline signals are post-fader .
DS1-3 affects the operator headphone output when AutoCue is active. When set off, cue is fed to the headphones in stereo (typically used for pro­duction rooms). When set to on, a split feed (moni­tor to one ear, cue to the other ear) is sent to the headphones (typically used for on-air consoles).
DS1-4 affects Telco channel operation. When set to off, the mix-minus source (the winking bus as­signment button) is not affected by turning the Telco channel on or off. When set to on, the Auto Foldback function is activ ated. T he mix-minus out­put automatically switches between Offline (Telco channel off) and the lowest selected program bus (Telco channel on). When Offline is not lit on the Telco channel, no mix-minus audio is heard while the channel is off, except for talkback to that T elco .
The next four switches (DS1-5, DS1-6, DS2-1 and DS2-2) set the sample rate outputs for the

NETWAVE CONTROL PANELS
The NetWave’s main components are identified in the illustration, above. There are four types of control panels (Dual F ader, Dual Router , Monitor and Dual Blank); two types of cards (Monitor & Output and DSP & I/O); and two display PCAs (Dual Meter and Clock-T imer).
Each slot, or control panel frame position, is
1.6" wide. The Monitor panel consumes three slots while all of the other panels use two slots. There are sixteen input slots on a NetWave-16, as shown above, so up to eight Dual Fader or Dual Router panels can be installed. The NetWave-16, as shipped from the factory, includes six Dual Fader panels installed into slots 1-12. Slots 13-16 are covered by two Dual Blank panels .
Additional Dual Fader panels (99-1423) can be installed into slots 13-16 at time of installation or
