Input Setup
Open the conguration Dashboard and select the Input Tab.
The Input Tab is shown in Diagram 5b.
• To edit default input names simply select and type in the
Input Name eld.
• Dene a mono or stereo input by selecting the appropriate
option. Dening a stereo input will reduce the total number
of discrete inputs available.
• Select an input sensitivity option from the drop-down
menu: +14dB, +4dB, -10dB and ‘microphone’ options
are available. Generally, the +14dB or +4dB options are
appropriate for ‘professional audio’ source hardware
with balanced outputs, while the -10dB option is more
appropriate for ‘consumer audio’ source hardware with
unbalanced outputs. The ‘microphone’ option provides the
signicantly greater sensitivity required for microphones.
Note: Only dynamic microphones are suitable for connection.
Phantom power for condenser microphones is not provided.
• If necessary, adjust the input gain using the slider or up/
down icons. Gain adjustment is intended to be used for ne
output level adjustment following initial use.
Zone Setup & Routing
Open the conguration Dashboard and select the Zone Tab.
The Zone Tab is shown in Diagram 5c.
• Select the zone to be congured. The number of zones
available will depend on the amplier model, input setup
and output mode (Lo-Z or Hi-Z). For example, a two output
amplier will have two zones available if only mono inputs
congured, but have only one zone available if any stereo
input is congured. Similarly, a four output amplier with
only mono inputs congured but one output congured for
Hi-Z mode will have only three zones available.
Note: When congured in Hi-Z mode PowerZone Connect ampliers
operate in ‘bridged’ mode where the output of two channels is
combined. This means that the number of output channels available
in Hi-Z mode is half that available in Lo-Z mode
• Name the zone by typing in the Zone Name eld.
• Adjust the zone volume if required by using the slider.
• Dene a mono or stereo zone by selecting the appropriate
option. Dening a stereo zone will reduce the total number
of further zones available.
• Specify an input for the zone by selecting from the drop-
down menu. Selecting a stereo input for a mono zone will
automatically sum the stereo channels to mono.
