The pin assignments of the balanced XLR output connectors are as follows: 

 

Pin 1: Signal ground 
Pin 2:  (non-inverting) 
Pin 3: Signal – (inverting) 
Shield ground: Chassis ground

 

Caution!  Please refer to the operating manual  of your amplifier to verify that the 

pin assignments of the input connectors correspond to the SM6 balanced 
outputs.  In the event that they  are  not compatible, the interconnecting 
cable will need to be altered to suit. 

 

  Input Voltage and Fuse Rating 

Input Voltage 

It  is  important that the  SM 6  be  operated  from  the  correct  AC  mains  voltage.  
This  unit  is  factory  set  for  the  voltage  applicable  to  the  original  country  of 
destination. 

The SM 6 will operate satisfactorily within a voltage variation of up to ±5% of 
that voltage at which the unit has been set. 

If you require the voltage setting to be  altered,  e.g. relocation to another area, 
city  or  country,  or  extraordinarily  high  or  low  voltages,  please  contact  your 
Perreaux dealer.  Qualified service personnel can only perform this modification. 

Caution!  Never  attempt  to  connect  the  unit  to  the  incorrect  voltage.    Severe 

damage can result from applying incorrect voltage to the unit. 

 

Fuse Rating 

The fuse rating displayed here, refers to the rating of the mains inlet fuse. 

For  more  information  on  fuse  ratings,  please  refer  to  Chapter  13 
“Specifications”. 

Caution!  Never  replace  the  fuse  with  any  other  ratings  other  than  the  one 

specified. 

 

  Serial Number 

The serial number is unique to your SM 6.  Please record this number and store it 
in a safe place.  For any service related enquiry, please be prepared to quote the 
product serial number to Perreaux personnel or their service representative. 

  Remote Trigger Outputs 

Two  parallel  remote  trigger  outputs  are  provided  to  switch  on  or  off  any 
connected peripherals to the SM 6.  In the event that it is not possible to cascade 
connect peripherals, two outputs are provided.  The remote trigger outputs are 
designed to accept a mono, 3.5mm diameter,  male jack.   The voltage rating is  
+5V DC when ON and 0V DC when OFF with maximum current being 10mA.
