CXA160 / CXA80 – 7
PARALLEL OUTPUT CONNECTORS
These outputs allow you to send a copy of the input signals
to another amplifier or component in your system. The
output is not affected by the volume or EQ controls.
There will only be an output here if the Input DIP switch Pin
1 is set in the UP position (see page 5 for details).
The output has four different styles of connections. Choose
one that suits your system the best:
17. XLR connector. This can accept a female
balanced XLR connector.
18. TRS connector. This can accept a balanced
TRS or unbalanced TS 1/4" connector.
19. Phoenix (Euroblock) connector. This
three-pin connector accepts the positive, negative
and ground terminals of a balanced audio line. It
accepts a push-in connector for easy installation.
20. Terminal strip. The three-terminal connectors
labeled +, –, and GND, accept the positive,
negative and ground terminals of a balanced audio
line. Secure the connections with the screws.
1. Low Cut Filter
Press this button in to engage the low-cut filter on the
output of the amplifier. It is fixed at 100 Hz with a 12 dB
slope per octave, and it serves to minimize transformer
saturation in constant voltage systems. Frequencies below
100 Hz are attenuated at a rate of 12 dB per octave.
. External Volume Control
This terminal is provided for remote volume control. If you
connect a (user-supplied linear-taper 10K pot), you can
remotely control the volume of the amplifier in the same
way that the front panel volume control does.
3. Fault Relay
If a fault is detected in the amplifier section, the positive
terminal of this external connector is energized. This
external connector can be used to connect to an external
device to initiate a “fault” action as dictated by the user.
Additionally, the “fault” LED on the front of the amplifier is
lit.
