Panasonic DVX100A Audio Help

I am trying to find help with some audio set ups for this camera. During filming we are using an external mic plugged into the XLR input and the on board mic turned off. Now with the headphones on, everything sounds ok, but when watching dailies, the sound seems kinda low. Weve adjusted the mic volume on the camera and it didnt seem to change much.

What are the best settings to have for the audio on this camera? Mainly so the headphone volume is hearing what is true to come through the external mic.
 
What do the audio levels look like on the camera audio meter?

What headphones are you using? (Many consumer headphones hype volume and frequencies, so you are not getting an adequate representation of what you are attempting to record.) You may want to turn the headphones volume down.

What mic(s) are you using?

Are you using a mixer?
