Power ON switch and LED
Your basic, straightforward power switch.
When the yellow LED is lit, the MX 22 is
ready to go.
LOW/HIGH FREQUENCY control
This 31-position selector sets the crossover
frequency between the Low and High
frequency Outputs in both Channels. Consult
the manuafacturer of the drivers or cabinets
for the correct setting.
HIGH LEVEL control
This controls the level of signal going to the
HIGH OUTPUT jacks. Unity gain is reached at
the “0 dB” mark with the INPUT LEVEL set
to “10”. Refer to Operating Instructions on
page Manual-6.
LOW OUTPUTS
Connect the LEFT LOW OUTPUT to the left
channel of the low frequency amplifier, and
the RIGHT LOW OUTPUT to the right channel
of the low amplifier. When driving a single
subwoofer, use the MONO SUB OUTPUT jack
instead.
INPUTS
These are balanced Inputs. It is best to use
balanced lines, especially when connecting
cables over 10 feet in length. If you are
feeding the MX 22 from a device that does
not have balanced XLR connectors, consult
SOUND SYSTEM INTERCONNECTION on page
Manual-10.
Cable Wiring
In agreement with IEC and AES/ANSI
standards, Rane wiring convention is pin 2
Positive (hot), pin 3 Negative (cold or
return), and pin 1 signal grounded and
chassis grounded (to allow unbalanced
operation). The XLR case is chassis
grounded.
This device uses low impedance
balanced line drivers. Do not connect the
“+” or “–” output pins to ground, as this
may cause the power supply to shut down.
For unbalanced use, leave the unused output
pin (“+” or “–”) unterminated.
