Audio input and output (audio models only)
By default, the audio ties follow the video ties. Audio breakaway, which can be
activated via the front panel or under Ethernet or RS-232/RS-422 control, allows
you to select from any one of the audio input sources and route it separately from
its corresponding video source. See chapter 3, Operation, chapter 4, Programmer’s
Guide, chapter 5, Switcher Software, and chapter 6, HTML Operation for details.

Connections for balanced and unbalanced audio inputs —
Each input has a
3.5 mm, 5-pole captive screw connector for balanced or unbalanced stereo
audio input. Connectors are included with each switcher, but you must
supply the audio cable. See figure 2-16 to wire a connector for the appropriate
input type and impedance level. High impedance is generally over 800 ohms.

CAUTION
The captive screw audio connector can easily be inadvertently plugged
partially into one receptacle and partially into an adjacent receptacle. This
misconnection could damage the audio output circuits. Ensure that the
connector is plugged fully and only into the desired input or output.
See figure 2-17 to identify the tip, ring, and sleeve when you are making
connections for the switcher from existing audio cables. A mono audio
connector consists of the tip and sleeve. A stereo audio connector consists of
the tip, ring and sleeve. The ring, tip, and sleeve wires are also shown on the
captive screw audio connector diagrams, figure 2-16 and figure 2-18.

The audio level for each input can be individually set via the front panel or
Ethernet or RS-232/RS-422 control to ensure that the level on the output does
not vary from input to input. See chapter 3, Operation, chapter 4, Programmer’s
Guide, chapter 5, Switcher Software, and chapter 6, HTML Operation for details.
