DESCRIPTION
- DESCRIPTION
- Atlas-Sound's MVXA-2016 monitor panel is an active device for aural and visual monitoring of sixteen different speaker and line level circuits in any combination. Superior single-circuit board design offers outstanding performance with easy visual assessment in an ultra-thin single rack unit chassis. The MVXA-2016 sixteen channel monitor panel is equipped with the finest components including DC coupled capacitors at each input to maintain signal integrity without distortion, noise, or ground-loop occurrence (no transformer required). The MVXA-2016 will simultaneously monitor any combination of 25V, 70V, 100V, or line level signals from –30dBV (line level reference) to 200Vrms (100Vrms reference). Each input signal is individually calibrated using easy to position jumpers Clear, visual monitoring of each signal is accomplished using individual twelve segment LED bargraphs with a resolution of 33dB each. The bottom ten LEDs are green and have standard VU ballistics of -30dB to -2dB. The top two LEDs are red to identify peak response at 0dB to +3dB above reference level. These easy-to-see red LEDs provide quick identification of critical signal levels.1

General Description
- General Description
- The MVXA monitor panels (patent pending) are active devices for aural and visual monitoring of sixteen different speaker and line level circuits in any combination. Superior single-circuit board design offers outstanding performance with easy visual assessment in an ultra-thin single rack unit chassis. MVXA-2016 is a sixteen channel monitor panel. Equipped with the finest components including DC coupled capacitors at each input to maintain signal integrity without distortion, noise, or ground-loop occurrence (no transformer required). The MVXA-2016 will simultaneously monitor any combination of 25V, 70.7V, 100V, or line level signals from –30dBv (line level reference) to 200VRMS (100VRMS reference). Each input signal is individually calibrated using easy to position jumpers. Clear, visual monitoring of each signal is accomplished using individual twelve segment LED bargraphs with a resolution of 33dB each. The bottom ten LEDs are green and have standard VU ballistics of -30dB – -2dB. The top two LEDs are red to identify peak response at 0dB – +3dB above reference level. These easy-to-see red LEDs provide quick identification of critical signal levels. The MVXA-2016 also provides for audio monitoring of each signal utilizing a 3 Watt amplifier with front panel volume control to drive an internal speaker, a headphone jack, and/or an external speaker output. For high fidelity purposes, a line level output with 35Hz – 20kHz response is also provided on the rear panel. The internal speaker may be bypassed or used in conjunction with the external speaker or line level device by simply moving the speaker/headphone disconnect jumper. The back panel includes: 15VAC power input connector (power supply included); speaker out terminals; line level out terminals; speaker/ headphone disconnect jumper; and sixteen input terminals that are individually selectable to a 0dB reference for 25V, 70.7V, 100V, or line level using extended tab jumpers. To facilitate wire management, the bottom panel extends outward to offer a ¾" full-length opening for wire access and holes for tie wrapping. To protect terminal connections, a back panel cover (equipped with knockouts) secures in position. The top panel features an easy-to-follow circuit diagram of the unit's basic operation. Units are finished in black and include rack mount brackets.2
Applications
- Applications
- Rely on MVXA-2016 for operational supervision of control centers when head-end amplification is remotely located. MVXA-2016 is ideal for aural and visual monitoring of multi-channel commercial or industrial sound and communications systems in office buildings, auditoriums, airports, convention halls, sports/recreation areas, theaters, schools, churches, houses of worship, factories, and service centers. The compact design of the MVXA-2016 is ideally suited for shelf, rack, or wall mounting.2
