3.5 Signal Inputs
3.5.1 Analog Input
XLR: Pin 1 = Ground
Pin 2 = Hot (inphase)
Pin 3 = Cold (out of phase)
Always use symmetrical (balanced) shielded cable to connect the amplifier.
3.5.2 AES Input
The digital AES XLR input accepts any AES / EBU signals (pro or consumer
format) in 16 to 24 bit resolution and 44,1, 48, 88,2, or 96 kHz samplig fre-
quency. This wide input frequency range of is guaranteed by an integrated
sample rate converter (SRC) chip.
3.6 Remote Control / Network Input
The Ethernet Link network connector allows you to access the
iD4
from
a host computer for remote control, firmware update and downloading
DSP presets.
The
iD4
is configured by default to use DHCP for automatic IP address
assignment in the network. If not desired, this feature can be set through
the DSP Control application.

WARNING!
SpEAKON
®
connectors marked with the lightning flash indicate high
vol tages that are potentially life threatening.
Wiring to these terminals requires installation by an instructed person or
the use of ready-made leads or cords.
Custom wiring should only be made by qualified personnel.
To prevent electric shock, do not operate the amplifier with any of the con-
ductor portion of the speaker wire exposed.
l
NOTE
For reasons of safety and performance, use only high-quality fully
in su lated speaker cables of stranded copper wire.
Use the largest
wire size that is economically and physically practical, and make sure the
cables are no longer than necessary.
l
NOTE
When connecting speaker cabinets in parallel, always use all the con-
tacts in both SpEAKON
®
connectors.
If not, this may cause permanent
damage to the connectors and considerably reduce performance.
