1.12 Deep Discharge Cut-Off Circuit

The Deep Discharge Cut-Off Circuit is an intelligent circuit that will automatically switch off
the battery supply to the amplifier, before the battery voltage goes below the
manufacturer's recommended discharge cut-off voltage.

̈

If this occurs, switch the loudspeaker system Off (to Position 0) and immediately recharge
the battery.

1.13 Connecting Signal Sources

All inputs have at least 10 dB of headroom.

1.13.1 Input 1 and Input 2 pin connectors

Input 1 and Input 2 are combo jacks that accept balanced or unbalanced signals from either
XLR male connectors or ¼ in. phone plugs.

Input 1 and Input 2:

Balanced input signals - cable configurations:

Cables for balanced signals that will be connected to Input 1 or Input 2 should be configured
as follows:

XLR male connector:

¼ in. TRS (stereo) phone plug:

Unbalanced input signals - cable configurations:

For unbalanced input signals, the simplest solution is to use a ¼ in. mono (TS) phone plug.
Connect the "+ signal" to the Tip and the Ground (shield) to the Sleeve.

Connectors for unbalanced signals should be configured as follows (refer to previous

Connect unbalanced microphones or any other equipment that has an unbalanced
connector (e.g. ¼ in. mono phone plug) to INPUT 2 (unless INPUT 1 will ONLY be used in the
LINE position). INPUT 1 has phantom power in the MIC or AUX positions and this may cause
permanent damage to an unbalanced microphone when an unbalanced connector is used.
