Figure 2: SR560 Front Panel

FRONT PANEL OPERATING SUMMARY

The operation of the SR560 Low-Noise Preamplifier has been designed to be as simple as possible. The effect of each keypress on the front panel is reflected in the change of a nearby LED. The front panel LED’s will remain lighted at all times unless dip switch SW601 (accessible through the bottom cover of the unit) positions 3 and 4 are placed in the "off" position. All front panel functions can be controlled through the rear-panel RS-232 interface.

lighted. As the batteries near exhaustion, this indicator will change from green to red, indicating that the unit should be connected to AC power to charge the batteries.

When connected to an AC power source, amplifier power is derived from regulated line power, and the internal batteries are automatically charged. When operating on AC power, the front panel "LINE" indicator is on to indicate the source of amplifier power. Charging status is indicated on the rear panel by the "CHARGE" and "MAINTAIN" LED indicators.

Power

The SR560 is turned on by depressing the POWER switch. When disconnected from AC power, the unit will operate for approximately 15 hours on internal sealed lead-acid batteries. Up to 200 mA of unregulated battery power is available at the rear panel banana jacks as long as the power switch is in the ON position. Battery life will be reduced when the unit is providing external power through the rear panel jacks. When operating on batteries, the front panel "BATT" indicator will be

Source

There are two input connectors located in the SOURCE section of the front panel. The pushbutton located between them selects either single-ended (A or B) or differential (A-B) inputs.

The A and B inputs are voltage inputs with 100 MΩ, 25 pF input impedance. Their connector shields are completely isolated from chassis ground, but can be made
