Falcon 15 manual St Version Description, 13.3AC CONNECTION, 13.4DIGITAL AUDIO INPUT

ST VERSION DESCRIPTION ENG

13.3AC CONNECTION

The Falcon 15 uses a power entry module with AC switch just closed to the IEC power cord receptacle. It can operate on 110 or 240 VAC, 50/60 Hz AC mains voltages. If the unit is to be used with a mains voltage different to that for which the unit is supplied, set the voltage change-over switch, which is placed inside the box, closed to the AC transformer.

The power supply socket has an integral fuse drawer containing the AC power fuse and a spare, both of the same value.

-for 220/230 V AC the fuse is rated at 500 mA T

-for 110/115 V AC tension the fuse is rated at 1 A T

13.4DIGITAL AUDIO INPUT

Transformer balanced XLR-type and optic connectors are used to input AES-3, S/PDIF, IEC60958, EIAJCP1201 digital audio.

To avoid malfunctions, only one digital connector may be connected at a time. Please keep the tos-link connector covered while not used.

The digital input accepts any sampling rate between 32 and 96 kHz. No user adjustment is necessary since a sample rate converter is built into the unit. Furthermore, digital input automatically recognizes the digital format (AES, EBU, SPDIF, etc.) and the type of connection (optic or coaxial).

Even though both analog and digital input audio cables can be connected, only one input can be set active (analog/digital input selection is done through the software parameter setting - par. 12.1). Input gain and level setting for digital input is fixed.
