Phonitor 2

Rear Panel: Signals & Remote Control
Signal Connections
Inputs are always female and accept male connectors; outputs are
always male. All in all, a very comprehensible principle. Turn off the
unit before connecting or disconnecting any cable or equipment to it.
Otherwise you risk the possibility of damaging your ears or equipment.
XLR Sockets
The diagram shows the pin wiring of all XLR
sockets (3 pin, balanced).
The diagram also shows how to wire the bal-
anced XLR connections if unbalanced con-
nections are required, for example to RCA
or TS inputs and outputs (see next section).
Connecting XLR to other socket formats
Unbalanced connections from and to RCA or 1/4" TS sockets, for ex-
ample from CD players or to power amps, are no problem and can be
made without adaptors. We recommend to use individually configured
cables from XLR to RCA or TS sockets instead of adaptors. The correct
wiring is important. The diagram shows the pin configuration of the
XLR sockets and how to correctly configure them for unbalanced con-
nections. You can get cables in any needed configuration from audio
dealers. With the diagram above, the dealer can ensure to provide the
appropriate cable for your application.
Learn Button: Learn a remote control
The volume potentiometer of the Phonitor 2 is motorized and can be
controlled with any remote control. But you must first activate the Learn
Mode in the Phonitor 2. Afterwards you must choose any two buttons on
the remote that will be used to increase or decrease the volume. Then
you simply have to save them on the Phonitor 2.
1. Press the LEARN BUTTON on the rear panel. The VU-meters light up red.
2. Point your remote towards the VU-meters and press the button you
want to use to decrease the volume. The VU-meters will light up once
every time you press a button. Press the same button repeatedly until
the VU-meters flash three times consecutively, which means the button
has been programmed.
3. Now follow the same procedure once again to program the button to
increase the volume.
