CHAPTER 2: GALILEO 408 FEATURES AND FUNCTIONS
18
■
Ethernet Connector: RJ-45 connector for connecting the Galileo 408 to an Ethernet net-
work, so it can be controlled from a computer running the Compass control software. Use
a shielded CAT-5e cable (recommended) or better Ethernet data cable.
■
Analog / AES Input Connectors (A and C): XLR-3F input connectors that accept either a
standard line-level analog signal or AES two-channel digital signal. In the Compass control
software on the Settings > Input and Output page, you can set these inputs to either Ana-
log or AES.
■
Analog Input Connectors (B and D): XLR-3F input connectors that accept standard line-
level audio only. These inputs are typically paired with the A and C inputs for receiving
two-channel, left/right audio signals. The analog-only inputs are disabled when their part-
nered input is set to AES mode. For example, when input A is set to AES mode, input B is
disabled; and when input C is set to AES mode, input D is disabled.
■
Output Connectors (1–8): Eight XLR-3M connectors for connecting to Meyer Sound self-
powered loudspeakers, or to power amplifier channels driving passive loudspeaker sys-
tems. Any signal routing and processing stored in the Galileo 408’s project file is applied to
these outputs.
■
SIM 3 Bus Connector: Connects to the SIM 3 audio analyzer so the Galileo 408’s inputs
and outputs can be used as measurement points.
