Default Possible issue w/PRE\'s OSC output...

I have a Digi PRE connected to a 192 I/O via DB25s. I created a session to check the calibration settings. According to the manual, PRE's oscillator outputs a 1Khz signal at +4dBu through the DB25 output. I set up a few mono channels in PT and activated the Inserts on PRE channels but the 1Khz tone I'm receiving is at about -18. After checking my cabling, which is fine, I tested w/Digi's Signal Generator and set it at 1Khz at -6. It registers fine according to my Waves PAZ plugs.

This can't be right. Anyone have similar issues? Thanks in advance!

That corresponds with the factory alignment of an analog input on the 192. The 192 input is set to clip at +22dBu. A test tone at +4dBu would be at -18dBfs since 22-4=18.
