Fig. 2.2/6: Operation of the O 500 C and an optional subwoofer from an analog signal source. For
a balanced connection in a studio-system please use a standard XLR-cable. If the O 500 C is
connected to an unbalanced signal source, please make sure to use a proper adaptor cable as per
Fig. 2.2/4, or have it wired up that way.
Fig. 2.2/7: The O 500 C connected to a signal source with a digital AES/EBU output. The L or R
channel can be selected separately for every monitor from the digital data stream. Please refer to
„Digital Input Select“ in chapter 3.2
Fig. 2.2/8: Connection of the O 500 C to a source with digital S/PDIF output. To connect a second
O 500 C in the signal chain, either a T-adaptor for the BNC input can be used, or the signal to the
second monitor can be taken from the digital output XLR socket. Please note, that this output is
AES/EBU! The selection for either L or R signal from the digital data stream ist the same as before.
