configuration choices have been made.
Note that the threaded fastener within the
back of the Model 362’s chassis has an
internal locking mechanism (a plastic bush-
ing) that prevents the belt clip’s 6-32 ma-
chine screw from vibrating loose. As such
no additional method of thread locking,
such as a lock washer or chemical com-
pound, is necessary.
Headphone Output Mode
Switches SW1 and SW2 allow selection
from four headphone output operating
modes. Each mode is distinct and careful
selection will help optimize the Model 362’s
operation for a range of applications.
Level/Balance
The level/balance mode is provided for
stereo applications such as live music
events or radio broadcasts. In these appli-
cations it’s typical to want the user to have
a single control to simultaneously adjust
the level of both channels; a separate
control will be used to adjust the left/right
level balance.
When set for the level/balance mode
Dante input channel 1 will be routed to the
headphone left output channel and Dante
input channel 2 will be routed to the right
output channel. Potentiometer Ch 1 will
adjust the overall level on both headphone
output channels. Potentiometer Ch 2 will
adjust the level balance between the left
and right output channels.
Dual-Channel Monaural
The dual-channel monaural mode can
be useful in applications where the same
audio signals need to be provided to the
user on both the left and right headphone
output channels. In this mode Dante audio
inputs 1 and 2 are routed to both the left
and right channels of the headphone out-
put. Potentiometer Ch 1 adjusts the level
of input 1 and potentiometer Ch 2 adjusts
the level of input 2.
Single-Channel Monaural
The single-channel monaural mode is spe-
cifically provided for applications where a
2-conductor 1/4-inch or 3.5 mm plug is be-
ing used with the connected headphones,
headset, or a broadcast-style earpiece. In
this mode Dante audio inputs 1 and 2 are
mixed together and routed to the left chan-
nel of the headphone output; no audio
signal is routed to the right channel of the
headphone output. Potentiometer Ch 1

Level/Level
The level/level mode is provided for on-air
applications where two independent audio
sources need to be routed to separate
headphone output channels. Dante audio
input channel 1 will be routed to the left
headphone output channel and top-panel
potentiometer Ch 1 will adjust its level.
Dante audio input channel 2 will be routed
to the right headphone output channel
and potentiometer Ch 2 will adjust its
level.
