Application Examples
Dual Mode, High Z (70Vrms/100Vrms)
Audio Architect software settings are shown in
Figure 62
. Typical input/
output wiring is shown in
Figure 63
.
INPUTS: Connect the input wires for each channel. See
"Wiring Input
Connectors" on page 7
for further information on analog input
wiring.
If the same input signal is to drive multiple outputs, the input signal
can be "Y'ed" by checking the "Y" checkboxes (see
Figure 62
). See
"Configuring Amp Wiring & Bridge Mode" on page 13
for
more information.
If using the BLU link input, it is important to understand that BLU link
is a digital audio bus and cannot be routed through an Ethernet switch
or router. Category 5e or higher cabling must be used for all BLU link
connections. To use the built-in BLU link fault protection, the BLU link output of the last device on the bus must be connected back to the BLU link input of
the first device. For additional information on making BLU link connections and using BLU link, see
"Using BLU link" on page 49
.
OUTPUTS: Maintain proper polarity (+/–) on output connectors. Connect the Channel 1 speaker’s positive (+) lead to amplifier Channel 1 positive
terminal; repeat for the negative (–) lead. Repeat Channel 2 wiring as for Channel 1, and for any subsequent channel pairs on multichannel models. See
"Wiring Output Connectors" on page 7
for additional information on output wiring.

System wiring for 70Vrms/100Vrms operation
NOTE: A 35Hz high-pass filter is automatically set when an output channel is configured for High Z operation.
NOTE:
Each output channel can be independently configured for High Z or Low Z operation. See
"Configuring Outputs for Low Z/High Z
Operation" on page 37
for more information.
NOTE: Always route the input and output wires in separate bundles.
WARNING: Only connect to networks that remain inside the building.
