INTELLIGATE XR2000
The BEHRINGER INTELLIGATE fits into one standard 19" rack unit of space (1 3/4"). Please allow at least an
additional 4" depth for the connectors on the back panel. Be sure that there is enough air space around the unit
for cooling and please do not place the INTELLIGATE on high temperature devices such as power amplifiers
etc. to avoid overheating.
Before you connect your INTELLIGATE to the mains, please make sure that your local voltage
matches the voltage required by the unit:
The fuse holder on the female mains connector has 3 triangular markers, with two of these triangles opposing
each other. Your INTELLIGATE is set to the operating voltage printed next to these markers, and can be set to
another voltage by turning the fuse holder by 180°. CAUTION: this instruction does not apply to export
models exclusively designed, e.g. for 115 V operation!
The mains connection of the INTELLIGATE is made by using the enclosed mains cable and a standard IEC
receptacle. It meets all of the international safety certification requirements.
Please make sure that all units have a proper ground connection. For your own safety, never
remove or disable the ground connector of the unit or of the AC power cable.
As standard, the BEHRINGER INTELLIGATE is installed with electronically servo-balanced inputs and outputs.
The new circuit design features automatic hum and noise reduction for balanced signals and thus allows for
trouble-free operation, even at high operating levels. Externally induced mains hum etc., will be effectively
suppressed. The automatic servo-function recognizes the presence of unbalanced connectors and adjusts the
nominal level internally to avoid level differences between the input and output (correction 6 dB).
You will find additional information in chapter 6 “INSTALLATION”.

Control elements
Fig. 1.1: The control surface of the INTELLIGATE
The BEHRINGER INTELLIGATE has two indentical channels. Each channel is equipped with 5 push button
switches, 8 rotery controls and 11 LEDs. The COUPLE switch is for stereo operation:
1
The INTELLIGATE converts to stereo mode by engaging the COUPLE switch, where the left channel
assumes the control of both audio paths, whereby the control voltage of channel 2 will be replaced with
that of channel 1. By depressing the COUPLE switch, you overide all the controls and switches of
channel 2 with the exception of the IN/OUT and the KEY LISTEN switch. Channel 1’s controls completely
take over the functions of channel 2.
