					X-Rack Installation and Operation
3.3	Connection
3.3.1	Power Connection
	The X-Rack unit has an au to-sensing power supply t hat can operate on 100 – 230V without adjustment.
	The power connection is made via a standard IEC mains cord to an un-switched IEC mains socket on the
3.3.2	rear panel and a latching power switch is provided on the front panel of the unit.
	Audio Connection
	Generally, each m odule will have an i nput connector (normally a female XLR) and an o utput connector
	(normally a male XLR). Depending upon the type of module other connectors, such as key inputs, may be
	present also. Connect the module inputs to the insert sends of your console or to your workstation outputs.
	Connect the module outputs to the corresponding insert returns or to your workstation inputs.
	Once the unit is connected switch it on , then route a signal to each channel in turn and check that it is
	returned to the correct input on your console or workstation.
	Some module input and output gains can be set to operate at a nominal level of +4dBu or –10dBV using a
	switch on the connector panel. Select the appropriate level for the equipment you are connecting to. If in
3.3.3	doubt either refer to the section of this manual specific to the particular module or experiment!
	Connection to an AWS 900		AWS 900+,
	If th e X -Rack i s bein g u sed with an AWS 900 or
	connect the TOTAL RECALL LINK IN	connector (a 9 pin D-
	type) to Serial Port 1 on the conole’s connector panel using the
	supplied 2 metre cable. This may be extended to a maximum of			TOTAL RECALL		TOTAL RECALL
	15 metres using a suitable pin to pin extension cable.

	TOTAL RECALL LINK IN connector on the second unit to the
	TOTAL RECALL LINK OUT connector on the fir st unit using
	the supplied cable. A third unit may be connected to the second
	unit in the same way.
3.3.4	MIDI Connection				MIDI IN	MIDI OUT
	The MIDI port can be used for several functions:
	• Archiving of the 32 internal stores as SysEx (System Exclusive) dumps
	• Remote control of the ‘soft’ functions of the XR622 Master module
	• Updating the system software

If you wish to use this facility connect the X-Rack MIDI IN connector to a spare MIDI out connector on your MIDI interface and the X-Rack MIDI OUT connector to the corresponding MIDI input.

A separate connection is required for each X-Rack.

3.3.5Mix Bus Link

Some X-R ack mo dules c an r oute sig nals onto t he X-Rack’s int ernal mix buss es. This 25-way ‘D’ type connector is provided to enable access to these buses and, using this connector, multiple X-Racks may be connected together enabling a large stereo mix system to be constructed. The pinout for this con nector is detailed in Section 5.2.
