Minimum cabling for the console would include AC power (to the main power connector), a house reference input, an
audio meter connection to the Audio Processor, and a LAN connection.
MPK Connections
The MPK connection is used for backup switcher source selection (see page 2–53), or for control panel delegation (see
page 2–54).
The MPK portion of the control panel requires connection to a separate power source. A wall plug–in power supply is
supplied with each console that will be used with 110 VAC 60 Hz power. Panels that are to be used in areas where 220
VAC 50 Hz power is the norm are not shipped with any power supply; the user in these areas must provide a source of
regulated 5 VDC power to each panel. The MPK power requirements are as follows: 5 VDC plus/minus 0.25 V at 1.5
A; connector must be a miniature power plug, Switchcraft S–760 or LZR HP114A or equivalent (5.5 mm outside diame-
ter, 2.1 mm inside diameter, 10 mm length), with positive voltage on outer conductor.
Meter Connection
The audio meter cable is similar to the MPK cable except that it must be terminated on both ends. See page 2–68.
Probe Connection
The Probe port is for diagnostic purposes.
