Please refer to 

Figure-2b

 on the following page to familiarize yourself with the rear panel features of the 

AMP1-DA

 unit. The following

sections describe these features and are referenced, by letter, to 

Figure-2b

.

Rear Panel Features

Section 2: Operation

Power - IEC-320 Connector

Attach a standard IEC-320 power cord between this connector and mains power (100 - 250VAC, 50/60 Hz). The front panel 

Power

LED

 (

Item 4

, page 

8

) will glow GREEN to indicate operating voltages are present.

AES/EBU Input Termination and AES Error Fault Type DIP Module

AES Input Termination:

In the event that either of the AES input channels is connected to downstream equipment, set the appropriate switch to the UP
position (

UNTERMINATE

).  If 

no

 downstream equipment is connected, then set to the DOWN position (

TERMINATE

).  See

below for diagram of termination settings.

AES Error Fault Type:

There are two DIP switch selectable modes of fault detection that will create a red error indication in the 

AES/EBU Signal Status

Indication LED

;

1) Reception errors:

 errors in reception of data or no data stream at all (

1 = DOWN

)

or

2) Reception

and

data errors:

 errors in reception 

and

 data errors identified by the sending device (possibly invalid)(

1 = UP

).  See below for diagram

of error settings.

AES/EBU Input Connectors (IN1 and IN2)

These two female BNC input connectors (

IN1

and

IN2

) accept standard 

AES/EBU

 signals.  These connectors are configured for

unbalanced, 75 

 connections.  Only one of the two 

AES/EBU

 inputs may be monitored at a time.  Selection between 

AES/EBU

inputs

IN1

 and 

IN2

 is acomplished using the 

Digital Source Select Switch

 on the front panel (

Item 8

, page 

8

).  Note that the unit

will monitor the selected 

AES/EBU

 channel 

only

 when the 

Analog/Digital Source Select

 switch on the front panel (

Item 9

, page

8

) is set to 

DIGITAL

.

AES/EBU Input Level Gain Calibration DIP Module

Input Level Gain Calibration

, the analog level which corresponds to a given digital input value, is settable via this DIP switch.  The

factory setting is +4 dB (analog) = -20 dBFS (digital).  See the silk-screened chart on the rear panel or the diagram below for
settings.
