5Connections for balanced and unbalanced audio outputs — These 3.5 mm, 5-pole captive screw connectors output the selected unamplified, line level audio. Connect audio devices, such as an audio amplifier or powered speakers. See figure 2-18 to properly wire an output connector. Use the supplied tie-wrap to strap the audio cable to the extended tail of the connector.

CAUTION

CAUTION

Connect the sleeve to ground (Gnd). Connecting the sleeve to a negative (-) terminal will damage the audio output circuits.

The length of the exposed (stripped) portion of the copper wires is important. The ideal length is 3/16" (5 mm). Longer bare wires can short together. Shorter bare wires are not as secure in the direct insertion connectors and could be pulled out.

The volume level for each output can be individually set via the front panel or Ethernet or serial port control. See chapter 3, “Operation”, chapter 4, “Programmer’s Guide”, chapter 5, “Matrix Software”, and chapter 6, “HTML Operation” for details.
