Unbalanced signals may also be used by linking the out-of-phase (-) signal pin to Ground
and applying the unbalanced signal to the in-phase (+) signal pin.
A full-scale digital input signal (0dBFS) corresponds to the maximum analogue input signal
level of +18dBu (with no extra input gain applied).
110 ohm input termination for the AES/EBU digital inputs is controlled by the settings of
switches 1 to 10 on the Block 2 of the conguration switches (see Fig 1-17: The RM-2S4 &
RM-2S10 DIPswitches), as follows:
SW1: When set to ON, digital input 10 is terminated with 110 Ω.
SW2: When set to ON, digital input 9 is terminated with 110 Ω.
SW3: When set to ON, digital input 8 is terminated with 110 Ω.
SW4: When set to ON, digital input 7 is terminated with 110 Ω.
SW5: When set to ON, digital input 6 is terminated with 110 Ω.
SW6: When set to ON, digital input 5 is terminated with 110 Ω.
SW7: When set to ON, digital input 4 is terminated with 110 Ω.
SW8: When set to ON, digital input 3 is terminated with 110 Ω.
SW9: When set to ON, digital input 2 is terminated with 110 Ω.
SW10: When set to ON, digital input 1 is terminated with 110 Ω.
Line Level Audio Outputs
A pair of three-pin male XLR connectors provides a stereo line-level audio output carrying
the selected audio Source signal. The XLR pin assignations are as follows:
Pin 1: Ground
Pin 2: In-phase signal (“hot”)
Pin 3: Out-of-phase signal (“cold”)
The signals may be unbalanced without loss of level by linking pins 1 and 3 and taking the
unbalanced signal from pin 2.
The line-level outputs may be congured either as analogue (using both output XLRs)
or AES/EBU digital (attach to the left-hand XLR of the pair and leave the right-hand XLR
unconnected). The selection of format is determined by the setting of switches 1-4 in Block
1 of the conguration switches (see Fig 1-17), according to the following table. Switch 5 in
the same block determines whether the line-level outputs are xed in level or proportional
in level to the setting of the volume control. Power should be removed from the unit
while making changes to the conguration switches and reapplied once the changes are
complete.
