User manual RANE DA 26

[. . . ] · The three Crossover Outputs (full-range, high-pass and low-pass) may be selected by any of the six Outputs. · Set the initial Output levels using the Output Level controls located on the front panel. · Remote Level controls allow end user adjustment of Output level. · Any combination of Remote Ports may be controlled by a single Remote device. [. . . ] OUTPUT trims and Crossover select switches: The ±12 dB trims set the levels for each of the six Outputs. High, Low or Full-Range is switch selectable for each of the six Outputs. Note: the Output trims do not affect Low-pass loudness compensation or Priority Input level. POWER indicator LED: This yellow illumination device lights up to let the operator know the thing is plugged in. Manual-2 REAR PANEL DESCRIPTION PRIORITY INPUT connector and MIC/LINE switch: The balanced PRIORITY INPUT operates at line or mic level, determined by the MIC / LINE switch. This Input accepts unbalanced signals, however, we do not recommend unbalanced operation unless the source is within 3 feet [one meter]; then only connect (+) and (GND). Note: the Priority Input is not influenced by the AGC, Crossover, Output trims or Remote Level controls. PRIORITY ASSIGN port: The state of the PRIORITY ASSIGN port determines Priority Input assignment to each of the six Outputs. To complete an assignment, the Output must be selected by the PRIORITY ASSIGN port and Priority Detect must be active. Note that if a combination of Crossover Outputs is used in one zone, all Outputs serving the zone must be selected by the PRIORITY ASSIGN port. Variations in wire type do not greatly affect the performance of this port. However, 22-gauge stranded wire with a flexible jacket is recommended. Unshielded multi-conductor cable is OK for shorter runs (less than 100 feet). LINE INPUT connector: Connect a balanced line level source to the Line Input. The Line Input accepts an unbalanced Input connected to (+) and (GND), but we do not recommend unbalanced connection unless the distance to the source is less than one meter; then only connect (+) and (GND). OUTPUT and REMOTE connectors: are on single 6-pin Euroblocks, one set for each Output. Outputs are line-level, balanced, and hopefully driving a balanced equalizer or amplifier. If not, keep cable lengths short and consult RaneNote 110, "Sound System Interconnection" located elsewhere in this manual. Connections for optional wired Remote Level controls are provided for each Output. Note: Remote Level controls do not affect the level of the Priority Input. Each port provides a 5 volt reference voltage (REF), a control voltage input (Vc) and a ground reference. Chassis ground point: A #6-32 screw is used for chassis grounding purposes. If after hooking up your system it exhibits excessive hum or buzzing, there is an incompatibility in the grounding configuration between units somewhere. [. . . ] The release delay is based on the typical time required to accommodate a pause in speech or dead-time between music programs. The PRIORITY DUCKER depth sets the amount of attenuation applied to the LINE INPUT signal when the PRIORITY INPUT is activated by the DETECT threshold. DUCKER depth is continuously adjustable over a range of 0 dB to -80 dB. A value of ­12 dB (2 o'clock) is typical for PRIORITY (page) talks over LINE (music) operation. [. . . ]
