PROCESSOR 3 MAIN AND POWER SUPPLY
CHASSIS PLACEMENT
Under no circumstances should the Processor 3 Power Supply be
placed directly on top of the Processor 3 main chassis, or the
Processor placed on top of the Power Supply. This will not allow
adequate ventilation, and overheating will result. The feet of the
Processor 3 digital processors are temperature sensitive and may
deform if exposed to excessive heat.
The units must be placed on a hard flat surface (N O T on carpet),
preferably side by side or on separate shelves with plenty of
unobstructed space all around the preamp to allow for free move-
ment of air for proper cooling. Do not operate these preamplifiers
in an enclosed cabinet - overheating will result.
Allow at least 6(15 cm) of clear space all around the Processor
chassis for proper ventilation.
CONNECTING EXTERNAL EQUIPMENT
Up to six digital sources or cables may be connected to the
appropriate input connectors on the rear panel (F,G,H,I,J,K)
using an ST (Glass Fibre) cable, Toslink (Plastic Fibre), BNC
Coaxial cable, RCA Coaxial cable, AES/EBU XLR cable, or
I

Senhanced cable. If a digital recording device such as a
DAT or CD-R is being implemented, an RCA Coaxial cable may
be used for this connection from the Digital Out (L).
Connect the left and right channel balanced XLR audio outputs (if
the existing amplification system is balanced) or the left and right
channel RCA coaxial (single-ended) into the corresponding left and
right channel line level audio inputs of the system’s preamplifier,
control amplifier, integrated amplifier or receiver.

POWER CONNECTIONS
Once all input and output signal connections are made, you can
begin to make the power connections.
UMBILICAL CORD CONNECTIONS
As the Processor 3 has an external power supply, an additional con-
nection is required. Plug the Power Supply Umbilical cord (T) from the
rear of the Power Supply into the Power Supply Input Socket (E) on
the rear of the processor as shown below in figure 7.
AC POWER CONNECTIONS
Plug the detachable Power Cord into the Power Cord socket (S)
on the back of the Processor 3 power supply. The Processor 3
Digital Processor is configured for the line voltage of the country
in which it is sold. See the shipping box or the rear of the chassis
for voltage settings. If a different operating voltage is required,
please contact an authorized Sonic Frontiers dealer or the factory
directly.
