11Signal-Level+4/-10 Switch: This button sets the operating signal level for each analog input and output channel. When this switch is in the out position, its associated channel will operate at the professional +4dBu standard; when the switch is pressed, the channel will operate at -10dBV.

About the +4/10 button: The +4dBu standard is used by most mixers, preamplifiers, and other professional audio devices with balanced outputs. Devices with unbalanced outputs commonly use the -10dBV standard. If you’re not sure about the operating level of a device you’ve connected to your Delta 1010, refer to the device’s user manual.

IMPORTANT: Do NOT connect a DC power supply to this jack. Doing so may damage the interface. Delta 1010 requires a 9V AC supply, with at least 3 ampere capability.
