Input and output LED indicators
The LED indicator for each input (
2, 3
) or each output (
4, 5, 6, 7
) allows to visualize
the presence of audio signal (lit in green), its proximity to the saturation or CLIP level
(orange) or the saturation status (red).
•
USB Connector
A type-B USB connector (
1
) is used to connect the ALMA24 to a PC and perform
the unit management and control from EclerCOMM Manager software.

BACK PANEL
The back panel features the following connections:
•
Mains, fuse and power switch (17, 18, 19)
Due to the switched mode power supply, the operating voltage range is 100V
–
240V
AC, with a frequency between 47Hz and 63Hz. Before powering up the unit, make
sure that the ALMA24 is correctly connected to ground in a installation that complies
with local regulations.
•
Input (9, 10) and output (11, 12, 13, 14) connectors
The ALMA24 has two balanced audio inputs (INPUT 1 and INPUT 2) on 3-pin female
XLR connectors (pin 1 to ground, pin 2 to (positive) and pin 3 to signal
–
(negative)). The ALMA24's signal output is performed through four balanced outputs
(OUTPUT 1-4), on 3-pin male XLR connectors. As for inputs, the connectors are
configured with the pin 1 to ground, pin 2 to (positive) and pin 3 to signal
–
(negative).
•
REMOTE connectors (15, 16)
The A and B REMOTE connectors allow you to simultaneously control the volume of
one or multiple inputs, or one or multiple outputs through a WPm series wall panel
or similar (0-10VDC). The inputs or outputs controlled from each REMOTE port are
selected with the EclerCOMM Manager application software.
