HAL SYSTEM DESIGN GUIDE The Locate LED, which flashes when toggled from within the Halogen software, helps identify a specific EXP - useful if you have more than one EXP installed. The Power LED lights when adequate power is applied to the unit. 3. Expansion Bus Jacks and Link LED Use one of these jacks to connect the EXP5x to the HAL, using a shielded CAT 5e (or better) cable. Use the other jack to connect the EXP5x to another Expansion Unit, thus forming a daisy chain. The Link LED lights when the HAL is communicating with the EXP5x. 4. Digital Remote Ports Use these ports to connect each DR to the EXP via a shielded Ethernet CAT 5e (or better) cable. You must use a shielded Ethernet cable for this connection. 5. Digital Remote LEDs Provide information about the health of the shielded CAT 5e connection between each DR and EXP. The numbers correspond to the DR ports in center of the rear panel. The Comm LED (on the top row) lights solidly if the DR's data communications pair is working properly. The Power LED (on the bottom row) lights solidly if EXP is supplying adequate power to the DR port. 6. Mic/Line-Plus Input Ports Use these ports to connect microphone, balanced or unbalanced line input devices. When configured in Halogen for Condenser Mic, each input provides +48 V phantom power and 18 dB input gain. When Configured for Dynamic Mic, each input provides 30 dB input gain. When configured in Halogen for balanced, each input is +4 dBu balanced. When configured for unbalanced, each input is -10 dBV unbalanced, with left and right channels summed to a single mono input. Front Panel 1. Mic/Line-Plus Input LEDs Provides status information about mic/line-plus analog inputs connected to the EXP5x. The numbers correspond to the mic/line-plus input ports on the rear panel. These LEDs provide information on the following: l Overload LED (red) - indicates that the mic/line-plus input is experiencing a signal overload l Signal LED (green) - indicates the presence of an audio signal on the mic/line-plus input 2. Digital Remote LEDs Indicate which Digital Remotes are enabled. Each numbered LED corresponds to the Digital Remote port with the same number. If a Digital Remote is connected on a port but its Enabled LED is off, there is likely a problem with the shielded CAT 5e connection or with the Digital Remote itself. If an Enabled LED is flashing, it indicates that the physical Digital Remote model does not match the Digital Remote model specified for this port in the HAL configuration. 81
