RIB-600Analog AUX IN installation  

The RIB-600Analog receiver can connect to the AUX INPUT of a public address amplifier 
if the receiver is installed in close proximity to the PA amplifier.   

 
 

 

The RCA phono cable required for interconnection should be no longer than 6 feet.  Installations requiring an RIB-
600Analog receiver location greater than 6 feet from the PA amplifier must use the 600

 balanced output. 

 

When using the PA amplifier AUX INPUT it is important to remember that received messages from the RIB-
600Analog receiver will be treated exactly the same way any other audio device connected to the AUX INPUT.  On 
many PA amplifiers the AUX INPUT audio is automatically muted whenever audio is present on the MIC INPUT.  
Check the owner

’s manual for the PA amplifier to determine AUX INPUT operation and the effect it will have on RIB-

600Analog operation.
