Setting up an Associated Meter Port

You can use a four-wire port as an audio meter, connected directly to the PC running Dynam-EC, when you assign that four-wire port to Associated Meter Port status. This is useful if you do not have an LMC 64 card fitted in your matrix.

To set up an Associated Meter Port:

  1. Ensure that the four-wire port to be used as an audio meter is directly connected to the PC running Dynam-EC.

    2. The following table shows the pin connection from a four-wire port (RJ-45 connector) to a 3.5mm microphone jack on the PC:

In Settings, drag and drop a direct four-wire port from the palette onto the Associated Meter Port segment of the Settings screen.

Note: Once the four-wire port has been assigned as the Associated Meter Port, it is treated by Dynam-EC as audio meter zero.

Calibrate the audio meter, by entering the required audio threshold in dB (for example, - 3.2). Click Apply.
