AB-50 Connections:

The inputs and outputs on an AB-50 are connected as follows:

1) power supply
2) power supply
3) A input positive
4) A input negative
5) B input positive
6) B input negative
7) Positive audio output
8) Ground
9) Negative audio output

The power supply connections need to be made to a 12 to 18 VAC trans-

former (supplied with the AB-50).

The A and B inputs require a powered switch closure. The voltage applied

can be anywhere between 5 and 24 volts AC or DC. The AC power supply
used for the AB-50 can be used for this if desired by attaching the inputs
through switches to the power supply screw terminals. To do this:

1) Attach a jumper wire between terminal #1 and terminal #3 (for the

A input) and/or terminal #1 and terminal #5 (for the B input).

2) Attach your switch(es) between terminals #2 and #4 (for the A input)

and terminals #2 and #6 for the B input.

The audio outputs are a + 10 dB balanced line level signal. If one of the

two outputs is left floating, the output from the AB-50 will be excessively
noisy. If you are using an amplifier with a single ended input, you will need
to:

1) attach the shield to the amplifier to the GROUND connection.
2) attach the signal to the amplifier to the POSITIVE AUDIO OUTPUT con-

nector.

3) attach the NEGATIVE AUDIO OUTPUT to the GROUND. A small piece of

wire is needed to do this.
