Control elements and connections

Control elements and connections (E1220A and
Fig. 2.1:
E1520A)
Use this 1/4" stereo jack to connect a signal source that
{1}
has 1/4" output.
Use this XLR connector to connect a signal source that has
{2}
XLR output.
Always use either the XLR or the 1/4" jack input, and
+
use the LEVEL control
{4}
to adapt the input sensitivity.
Never use both inputs at the same time!
The
{3}
LINK OUTPUT
is directly connected to the inputs of
the E1220A/E1520A and carries the input signal with no
processing applied. In this way, you can route the signal
to the input of another device (for example, a second
E1220A/E1520A).
To set the volume of the LINE or MIC signal, use the
{4}
LEVEL
control. The left half of the control range is for attenuating
the LINE signal. The right half is for raising the level of the
MIC signal.
The
{5}
CLIP
LED lights up when signal distortion occurs.
Reduce the volume with the LEVEL control until the CLIP
LED does not light up any more, or occasionally lights up
at signal peaks.
We would like to draw your attention to the fact that ex
-
+
tremely loud sound levels may damage your hearing as
well as your headphones/loudspeakers. Turn the LEVEL
control fully to the left before you switch on the unit. Be
careful to select a suitable volume at all times.
The
{6}
HIGH
control adjusts the level of the high-frequency
range.
The
{7}
PWR
LED lights up when the loudspeaker is put into
operation.
The
{8}
LOW
control adjusts the level of the low-frequency
range.
