(1) AC Power
Connector / Fuse Holder
-
Connect a standard, detachable IEC power cable (supplied)
here. If fuse replacement is required, use only a 125 mA time delay (slow blow) fuse for operation at
115 V, or a 63 mA time delay (slow blow) fuse for operation at 230 V. Note that the 1176AE has no
dedicated on-off Power button; instead, depressing the Meter OFF button (
see #7 on the previous
page
) has the effect of powering the unit off.
(2) XLR INPUT
-
Connect line-level input signal to this balanced XLR connector. Pin 2 is wired
positive (hot). This signal will normally be arriving via a patchbay from a channel or bus insert send.
(3) XLR OUTPUT
-
A balanced XLR connector carrying the line-level output signal of the 1176AE.
This signal will normally be routed via a patchbay to a channel or bus insert return.
(4) Terminal Strip
-
Because it predated standard XLR connectors, the original 1176AE provided
terminal strips for input and output line-level connections, and so, in addition to providing a convenient
XLR input and output (
see #2 and #3 above
), that feature has been retained here. Use the leftmost
two terminals for input connections, the next terminal for chassis ground, and the next two terminals for
output connections. The rightmost two terminals are used for connection of a remote meter. (
see
page 20 for a complete listing of all terminal strip connections
) If an input connection is made to the
terminal strip, be sure that there is
no
connection also made to the XLR input.
(5)
1176SA connector
-
Used for stereo linking of two 1176AEs. (
see page 22 for stereo
interconnection instructions.)
Never substitute different fuses other than those specified here!
In order to avoid induced noise, make only one type of input connection (XLR or terminal
strip) to the 1176AE.
