Input 2 Left Channel Controls

 

These 12 preset dip switches provide controls to adjust the input gain, the 
input impedance and the input capacitance for the left channel input of input 2. 
 
Please see the cartridge setup section of this handbook for detailed 
information.

 

 

5. 

Input 2 Right Channel Controls

 

These 12 preset dip switches provide controls to adjust the input gain, the 
input impedance and the input capacitance for the right channel input of input 
2. 
 
Please see the cartridge setup section of this handbook for detailed 
information. 

 

6. 

Anti-Tamper Screw

 

The clear plastic anti-tamper shield is fitted to prevent un-authorised changes 
of the Athens 2 input parameters. To gain access to the dip switches then the 
Anti-Tamper screw must first be removed to allow removal of the anti-tamper 
shield.

 

 

7. 

Input 2 PPM

 

This 4 LED per channel PPM provides indication of the output level of input 1 
of the Athens 2 preamplifier.  
 
The marked scale is in dBu and is digitally referenced such that on the 
network outputs 0dBu = -18dBFs. 
 
If the gain is set correctly during normal use you would expect the +6 LED to 
illuminate occasionally. 
 
If however you are using the -24dBFs output circuits then the front panel PPM 
will read 6dB too high and the -6dB LED should become your lineup position.
