All connections are made upon installation. Some equipment may be connected and disconnected each
time it is used. Drawing C-1102369 in Appendix A shows a general overview of how standard and optional
equipment connects to the rack. Note that every project is unique, so be sure to follow any site-specific riser
drawings and documentation for the facility to determine the exact layout of system components.
3.2 Setup
The Announcer’s Interface equipment is typically kept in the bottom storage drawers along with other
accessories. Follow the steps below to properly reconnect it to the rack. For more information, refer also to the
quick guide ( DD3083838 ) shipped with the device.
1. Connect the 2' (610 mm) XLR cable between the microphone and the MIC 1 INPUT jack.
2. Connect headphones to the 1/4" or 1/8" jack.
3. Connect the provided 12 VAC wallpack transformer to the power input jack, and then plug the
other end into a standard 120 VAC outlet. Use the tab above the power jack as a strain relief for the
power cord.
4. Connect the 15' (4.6 m) XLR cable from MIC 1 & AUX 1 on the announcer’s interface to Mic 1 &
Aux 1 on the announcer's plate.
For the 24 RU rack only , there will be a 25' (7.6 m) or 50' (15.2 m) cable harness factory wired to the rack.
Route this cable to the desired mixer location and connect each plug to the appropriate jack on the mixer
according to the wire labels. Plug the mixer into a standard power outlet.

Unlock the door of the rack, and turn the SOUND SYSTEM key switch ( Figure 17 ) to the ON (vertical)
