2.1.1 Power suply
The console has a built-in rechargeable Ni-Mh
battery which provides up to 20 hours of continuous
use *.
The battery is recharged using the power supply that
came with the console that provides 12 VDC, 1.5A.
When you connect the external source, the battery
begins to recharge and the VU meter lights,
indicating that the unit is recharging. Considering a
total discharge of the battery, the load is obtained in
one night (12 hours). When the load is reduced, it is
possible to recharge the battery before fully drain
connecting the unit to the charger for a few hours, so
that the load reach its highest level. To check the
battery level, press the BATT TEST button at the
frontal panel.
CONNECT THE CONSOLE ONLY TO THE
CHARGER PROVIDED BY SOLIDYNE.
Do not use chargers from other manufacturers
or external battery.
* estimated value by considering a Bluetooth transmission, 3 dynamic
microphones and two headphones. Using digital streaming is reduced to 8
hours.
2.1.2
Microphone inputs
All microphone inputs (MIC-1; MIC-2; MIC-3; MIC-4 &
MIC-5) are electronically balanced, using XLR
connectors. All inputs gives 48 volts 'phantom power' to
use with condenser microphones.
2.1.3
Line level inputs
Inputs 3, 4 and 5 supports balanced TRS ¼” with line
level. When you connects a TRS plug, input gain
changes automatically.
Example of use: reception base of wireless microphone.
In addition, MX2400 has an
unbalanced stereo input
,
using TRS ¼” jack (channel 6).
Note that
3, 4, and 5 inputs are balanced mono,
using TRS
jack
.
Do not connect a stereo signal, since left and right
channels will be mixed with inverted phase.

Tuner input
The signal injected to this input (¼” mono jack) is
sent only to the headphone mix through the fader
STUDIO. When you connects this input, disconnects
the hybrid return from studios ( RJ11 connector
connected to land line or the wiring cell phone).
This input is used to monitor air emission from an
external tuner
with line-out (you can use the
headphone output of a portable radio).
Is used, for example, when transmitting digital audio
via Ethernet. Digital communication is unidirectional.
The console sends data to an Internet server and the
radio transmission is monitored, if possible, directly
from the air by connecting an external tuner. Outside
the coverage area, monitoring is made via cell
phone.
