optional front mounted opticalCON connectors
Input ‐ Each of the 32 inputs on the Stage Box is a Neutrik, XLR/TRS combo connector. All inputs
accept balanced or unbalanced signals, eliminating the need for adapters and DI boxes. The XLR
inputs of the VIS‐1832 have an input impedance of 1.8KΩ while the TRS has an input impedance of 1.8KΩ.
Return ‐ Each of the 8 returns are made via Neutrik, XLR, male connectors. Returns are all line‐level.
Phantom Power ‐ 48V Phantom Power is switch‐selectable in groups of eight inputs (1‐8, 9‐16, 17‐24,
25‐32) When switched on, the Phantom Power LED for that group will glow green. The 1/4” inputs of
the Neutrik Combo connectors on the VIS‐1832 are normalled so that phantom power is disconnected on a
channel by channel basis when a 1/4” jack is inserted. This allows you to use these connectors in a bank that
has phantom power enabled without fear of putting phantom power on your 1/4” line.
Phantom power on the console should be turned off for Light Viper connected inputs as this could cause
distortion on the channel.
Sync ‐ The Sync LED indicates the status of the fiber optic link between the Stage Box and the Mixer
Box. It has three states: SOLID RED indicates there is no optical link present, ALTERNATING GREEN
AND RED means the unit is searching for sync, SOLID GREEN ‐ indicates optical link is present, and OFF
indicates no power.
Fiber Connections ‐ Each Stage Box has one to three fiber connections. The one marked ‘Primary’
should always be connected to the Mixer Box (VIM‐1832) as it provides clock for the entire system.
Any other connections would be made to additional send boxes. Always be sure to use appropriate fiber and
connectors. The LightViper 1832 system uses multimode fiber. Single mode optics are available for situations
where single mode fiber may already be installed.
