14 ANTENNA INPUT JACK: BNC-type antenna connector for Tuner “B.” Attach the antenna directly, or
extend it with a low-loss antenna cable. See the ”Antennas” section on page [--] for more details.
Antenna power at +12 volts is available at both antenna jacks; select it via the LCD menu on Channel 1.
15 / 22 EXTERNAL MUTE: Permits manual and absolute muting of the receiver via a 1/4" TS phone jack
and a user-provided external switch. “Shorting” the jack (closing the switch connection) mutes the
receiver channel. When External Mute has been applied, the only way to un-mute the receiver is to open
the External Mute switch connection.
16 / 23 INSTRUMENT OUTPUT JACK: 1/4" transformer-isolated TRS balanced phone jack output. Tip:
“audio +”; Ring: “audio –”; Sleeve: ground (shield). Can be connected to an aux-level input of a mixer,
guitar amp or tape recorder. Using the associated Ground Lift switch permits feeding equipment with
different ground levels.
17 / 24 AF OUTPUT ATTENUATOR: Three-position switch adjusts audio output level of both audio output
jacks, with attenuation of 0 dB, –6 dB or –12 dB.
18 / 25 MIC OUTPUT JACK: XLRM-type connector. Pin 1: ground (shield); Pin 2: “audio +”; Pin 3: “audio -”.
A standard 2-conductor shielded cable can be used to connect the receiver output to a balanced
microphone-level input on a mixer or integrated amplifier. This output is transformer-isolated from the
1/4" TRS Instrument output jack.
19 / 26 GROUND LIFT SWITCH: Disconnects the ground of both the Mic and Instrument output jacks on
the associated receiver channel. Normally, the switch should be to the right (ground connected). If hum
caused by a ground loop occurs, slide switch to the left (ground lifted).
20 NETWORK INTERFACE CONNECTOR: An Ethernet connection on the AEW-R5200 provides full
communication and monitor/control by an associated computer. See the separate AEW Control Interface
manual for computer setup and operation.
21 ANTENNA INPUT JACK: Connector for Tuner “A.” Attach the antenna directly, or extend it with a low-
loss antenna cable.
27 LINK IN JACK: Connect the provided cable to this jack with the index mark on the plug aligned toward
the screw head to the right of the jack. The receiver with a Link In and no Link Out connection is the
“Master” unit. (With an AEW-R5200 in the Master position, its Channel 1 is the system’s Master and its
Channel 2 is the first “slave.”)
28 LINK OUT JACK: Connect the provided cable to this jack with the index mark on the plug aligned
toward the screw head to the right of the jack. The receiver with a Link Out and no Link In connection is
the last slave in a multi-unit system.
