Terminating/Unterminating Inputs
Terminating/Unterminating Inputs
Each of the AES and bitstream inputs on the AMPx-S8 may be
terminated or unterminated independently of each other. A given
input should be terminated when the AMPx-S8 is the last receiving
device in the signal path or is the only receiving device in the signal
path. If the signal loops through the AMPx-S8 to another receiving
device, the input should be unterminated in the AMPx-S8 (and
terminated at the last device in the signal path). Terminating the signals
properly improves signal integrity, and ensures the signal will be
received correctly by all the devices in the signal chain.
In the AMPx-S8 monitors, the terminations are set to "Enabled" by
default for the balanced AES inputs and unbalanced AES inputs inputs.
To change the termination settings:
1. Hold the Fn button while pressing the Setup button.
2. Press the Down button once. The LCD should look similar to the
image in Figure 3–14 below.

3. Press the
Enter key. The LCD should now look like the image
Figure 3–15 or in Figure 3–16.
