Output Modules
(OM-5000)
Module Overview
Each A-5000 console has two master output modules: the
first handles the console’s Program and Auxiliary outputs, the
second Audition and Utility. Both modules output analog
signal. Analog outputs may be adjusted using recessed front
panel multi-turn trimpots.
OM-5000 modules also generate the console’s monitor
signals, which feed the Control Room, Studio and Meter
Output modules. There are stereo insert points for PGM and
AUD (these may be internally bypassed, which is the factory
default setting). Regardless of the bypass switch setting,
INSERT OUT may be used as an additional direct PGM (or
AUD) output from a module. These outputs are not affected
by the gain trims.
All user wiring to and from OM-5000 modules takes place
at DB-25 multi-pin connectors mounted directly beneath the
module on the console mainframe’s bottom pan. There are
two connectors: the upper one (towards the console
meterbridge) handles analog outputs and insert points; the
lower connector (near the console armrest) provides a stereo
CUE output from master A and the MXM1 and MXM2
analog outputs from Master B. All analog audio is +4dBu
balanced. Pinout drawings on pages 4-5 and 4-6 show all
wiring connections at a glance.
