If you are asking about using a standard CRT Monitor with some device that has a Channel 3 TV output, you have to either have a tv tuner device between your monitor and the device you want to connect to, or find video outputs on the device other than the TV channel out in order to connect to a monitor. Monitors work with video signals. TV's work with radio signals. These two inputs are not the same thing. Channel 3 is a specific radio frequency signal that must be converted to video to be displayed by a TV. Computer monitors do not have the circuitry installed to convert radio frequency signals to video. Therefore, strictly speaking, there is no easy way to 'put' a CRT Monitor 'on channel three'.
Silly question, but are you subscribed to the HD channels? Most cable companies include HD channels o higher tier subscriptions, and then require a different decoder box to get them.
1. Turn the main and monitor volumes all the way down (off). Plug a cd player into channel 9/10 and play a track of music of your liking. With the main/monitor volumes still off, adjust the gain on 9/10 until the clip light turns on, then back it down until the clip light just turns off. Put the channel volume at 12 o' clock.
2. With the music still playing, turn up the mains to the desired listening level first, and then adjust the graphic eq until the music sounds good in the room. Remember or mark the position of the volume control. Do not use the channel eq on 9/10 for music that has been mastered properly, leave the eq flat. Once this step is completed then you have now set the main eq.
3. Repeat the same for monitors. Turn off the main volume and then bring up the monitor main volume to the desired level first, then set eq. Now your monitor eq is set properly. Remember or mark the position of the monitor volume.
4. Set up microphone - plug a mic into channel 1 with volume all the way down. Speak or sing into the microphone and adjust the GAIN until you see the clip light, then back down a litttle on the gain. Put the monitor and main volumes back up to the mark from step 2. Now adjust the volume and monitor send on the mic channel to the desired loudness first before adjusting the mic channel eq. Use subtractive eq method to minimize distortion and feedback. ...i.e. if the mic is bassy then turn down the lows, do not ADD highs. If the mic needs bass, turn down the highs.
Please read my tip on fixya regarding a HAZARD of PMP mixers when using Speakon to 1/4 inch speaker cables. Essentially, the barrel of the 1/4 inch on A channel is the "hot" and one had better never let it touch a grounded point.
Now to your problem...You may have to run the MAIN sliders near the unity setting (zero Db).
It is important to set the trims correctely. For each of the inout channels, push the PFL button for the channel down and set the trim control so LED display is just below the clipping point at maximum input for the channel.
Ideally you would like the channel sliders to be in the vicinity of unity gain when system is balanced. Running the sliders way down results in a poor signal to noise ratio. Next you adjust the channel monitor knobs to set the monitor mix. These should be about 12 o'clock if possible to get decent signal to noise ratio.
For the MON/Mon1 mode, do NOT use the "Surround" simulator OR the "Speaker processor" ... make sure those swithces are off. You will probably want to PAN the channels fully to the MAIN side "B" which MAY be the reason your level seems low.
Remember the individual channels are about 400 Watts and 600 peak. Frankly myself I prefer to use both MAIN channels to the main speakers and use an external amp for the monitors OR use powered monitors for monitor use.
Quick and dirty way is to turn up one of the AUX channels, say #1 on the Guitar player's inoput channel/strip. Have all other AUX #1 completely CCW so none of the others get mixed on the AUX.
Use a TRS cable from AUX1 output to the guitar players monitor amp.
NOTE. The signal to his amp will only be controlled by the AUX1 on his channel AND the AUX1 Master.
One normally uses the AUX outputs for monitor functions.
THE MONITOR OUTPUT AMP MAY HAVE BLOWN...COULD MAY ONLY BE THAT THE JACK IS BAD OR JUST A COLD SOLDER JOINT.....OR IT COULD BE JUST ABOUT ANYTHING IN THE MONITOR CHANNEL PUSH BUTTON MASTER VOL FOR THAT CHANNEL TAKE IT APART TAKE A LOOK AROUND BEFORE YOU BRING IT TO A REPAIR SHOP IT CANT HURT GOOD LUCK
I believe you do not need to hold the monitor button when changing channels
Push the talk button till you have the channel you want then push monitor button to accept
Hope this works
To change channel & code press talk and monitor
while turning radio on.
Radio will speak current channel.
Release both talk and monitor.
Press talk to change to next channel or press
monitor to keep current channel.
Press monitor when desired channel is selected, radio will speak current code.
Press talk to change to next code or press monitor
to keep current code.
Press talk to change code as desired then press
monitor when done.
Will speak channel and code selected.
Set all units in same manner to
communicate.
