AES INPUTS 1 - 4
Accepts up to four AES3 signals via the TA3-M
input connectors. Each connector accepts two channels of AES3.
Incoming signal can be routed to 8-Series Mixer-Recorder channels via
the menus. Input type: AES3, balanced, TA3F connectors, Impedance:
110 ohms, Sensitivity: 200 mV or higher accepted
Wiring: pin 1 = ground; pin 2 = +; pin 3 = –.
DC OUTPUTS 1 & 2
Each Hirose 4-pin male connector provides 6-18
V DC at 500 mA [pin-4=+, pin-1=-]. Useful for providing power to other
paripherals such as RF equipment. Power can be defeated in the
menus.
ANTENNA A & B RF OVERLOAD LEDS
Each antenna input on the
front panel of the SL-2 has an associated LED that displays incoming
