Installation Recommendations
FOR RACK MOUNT USE ONLY - Install the AFS 224 in your rack with the provided rack screws. When installed in a rack, the unit should be positioned with enough room (at least one 1U above the and 1U below the unit) to allow proper ventilation. The AFS 224 should not be mounted above or below anything that generates excessive heat. Ambient temperatures should not exceed 1130F (450C) when equipment is in use. Although the unit is shielded against radio frequency and electromagnetic interference, extremely high fields of RF and EMI should be avoided where possible.
Basic Connection of the AFS 224

Install the AFS 224 in a rack with the rack screws provided. It can be mounted above or below anything that does not generate excessive heat. Ambient temperatures should not exceed 113° F (45°C) when equipment is in use. Although the unit’s chassis is shielded against radio frequency and electromagnetic interference, extremely high fields of RF and EMI should be avoided.
•Make audio connections via XLR, or 1/4” TRS jacks connectors according to application needs. Both types of connectors for the inputs and outputs can be used for balanced or unbalanced connections. The use of more than one connector at a time for the inputs could unbalance balanced lines, cause phase cancellation, short a conductor to ground, or cause damage to other equipment connected to the AFS 224. More than one output may be used simultaneously as long as the combined parallel load is greater than 600Ω.
•Apply power to the AFS 224. Connect the AC power cord to the AC power receptacle on the back of the AFS 224. Route the AC power cord to a convenient power outlet away from audio lines. The unit may be turned on and off from a master equipment power switch. Since the AFS 224 consumes a relatively small amount of power, the units may be left on continuously.
