Section 1 Hardware and connections
1.1 General connection diagram
1.2 Rear panel
1.2.1 Power supply
Always CHECK the correct position of the
VOLTAGE SELECTOR (200/240V o 100/130V,
according to the country)
AC wires do not have to be mixed with audio wires,
especially with analogical ones. Remember that all
audio installation must have a trustworthy grounding.
We recommend accomplishing with the standards -
Article 810 of the National Electricity Code (NEC);
ANSI/NFPA Nº 70-1984 in USA; IRAM 2379 and
2281-3 in Argentina. This standard provides
information and guidelines for a consistent grounding.
1.2.2 Audio inputs and outputs
Analog inputs and outputs are electronically
balanced. The inputs are “bridging” type, with
impedance greater than 10 KOhms. The connectors
used, as is standard, are female XLR-3 for the inputs
and male for the outputs.
Take specially care with
the phase.

Use one pair shielded audio cables of good
quality, preferably with double shielding. The
maximum length recommended is 30 mts,
although in special cases it's possible to
achieve 100 mts. accepting a little loss at high
frequencies.

The connection of this cables are made as is
standard. See the following table:
Balanced input/output connections:
1 = GND
2 = balanced positive phase (+)
3 = balanced negative phase (-)
Unbalanced connections:
Inputs: Signal = 2; GND = join 1 y 3
Outputs: Signal to pin 2; leave pin-3 unconnected. GND = pin 1
AES-3 input and output cables connect as following:
XLR Signal
1 GND
2 AES3 (1)
3 AES3 (2)
AES3 standard connection
