1. The Remote unit can be powered from a 17V AC / 1AMP power supply or,
when used with a Master unit, over CAT5 cable (via the RJ45
connector). The switch selects the power source. Note that only two
remote units should be used in a daisy-chain manner when power is
applied via the CAT5 cable. You can connect many more units in a
daisy-chain configuration if a power supply is connected to each unit.
2. When used in stand-alone mode without a master, audio signals can
be routed into the Remote via these balanced TRS 1/8" connectors.

.

3. RJ45 connectors for connecting a CAT5 cable between the
Master and the Remote unit. Multiple units can be easily daisy-chained
using the CAT5 inputs and outputs.
4. Used to adjust the output level for the XLR Monitor outputs (normally
connected to an amp or an active monitoring system).
5. Monitor outputs, balanced XLR.
6. Balanced XLR outputs to F.O.H. (Front of House) or mixers, etc.

These connectors duplicate the signals appearing at the front-panel inputs.

XLR signals bypass all circuits, including the built-in microphone preamps.


When a 1/4" plug is connected to the front of the Remote unit, a circuit is
automatically switched in that turns the unit into a D.I. (Direct Inject) box.
7. Ground Lift switch. In some situations you may encounter a ground (or
“earth”) hum. Enabling this switch may resolve the problem.
