MAINS IN: Connect the factory-included mains cord to this socket. Ensure the amp's voltage rating matches your local AC voltage rating before you plug the cord into the wall socket (see 11.3). The mains fuse bracket is located next to this the socket. When replacing blown fuses, make sure you use specified replacement fuses only (see 10. TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS).

SPEAKER LEFT/RIGHT: The zenTera® is equipped with stereo outputs for the internal loudspeakers as well as for the connection of extension cabinets. When you opt to connect external cabinets, make absolutely sure that the overall impedance does not fall below the minimum permissible impedance of 6 ohms per chan- nel. This means that you can connect, for example, a cabinet with at least 8 ohms in addition to the internal loudspeaker.

The following table indicates the possible speaker connection options for each channel:

Jack 1	Jack 2
Internal 16 ohms	-
Internal 16 ohms	External 16 ohms
Internal 16 ohms	External 8 ohms
External 16 ohms	-
-	External 8 ohms
External 16 ohms	External 16 ohms
External 16 ohms	External 8 ohms

Note: Read section 7.2, MODE, to find out how to adjust the zenTera® to the given speaker configuration.

EFFECTS LOOP: Serial stereo/stereo insert for connecting external effect devices. In the signal chain, the EFFECTS LOOP is located after the D/A converter and in front of the power amp volume knob.

Note: Bear in mind that the overall sound quality depends to a considerable degree on the quality of the external effect device since the entire signal is routed through it in series.

•SEND: Connect this output to the input of your effect device. In view of the fact that they route out signals without speaker simulation, the SEND jacks may also be used as a line out for connecting external power amps.

•RETURN: Connect the output of your effects device to this jack. You can also use the RETURN jacks to connect an external signal source such as an audio playback device. However, keep in mind that in this case the zenTera®'s signal is muted, which means that if you patch in an external signal here, you can’t play along with it over the zenTera®.

HEADPHONES: Connect headphones to this jack. You can control the volume of the headphones output separately. Like the RECORDING OUT, this circuit features speaker simulation that replicates the sound and setup of the original amp.

Note that the internal loudspeakers are not disconnected automatically when you plug in headphones. If you want to mute the zenTera®'s speakers, turn the MASTER volume knob all the way down.

RECORDING OUT: Analog and digital stereo output for connecting the zenTera® to a mixing console or a PC.

Note: The EFFECTS LOOP is not routed to the RECORDING OUT.

•ANALOG LEFT/RIGHT: Patches out the RECORDING OUT signal at line level with integrated simulation of the original amps' speakers.

•DIGITAL S/PDIF: The digital version of the RECORDING OUT (24 bits; 44,1 kHz sampling rate).

STAGE BOARD: 9-pin port designed to take the optional Hughes & Kettner Z-Board or the optional FS-5, a 5-way foot switch.

Note: This is not an interface for connecting a PC.

MIDI IN/OUT/THRU: Standard MIDI trio. Connect a standard MIDI board here. It also serves as the interface for loading software updates and creating preset backups. The IN port is powered via a phantom power circuit equipped with a discrete fuse.

FOOTSWITCH: Stereo jack for connecting a 1-way or 2-way sustain pedal. It lets you switch to the next higher preset number (UP) or next lower preset (DOWN) or also back and forth between two presets (TOGGLE). For the latter alternative, you have to assign a marker to one of the two presets (see 6.5, FOOTSWITCH). Go to the system menu (see 7.12, FOOTSWITCH ASSIGN) to select the desired UP/DOWN/TOGGLE function.

Note: The zenTera® detects the polarity (1-way or 2-way) of the connected sustain pedal when it is switched on.

FOOT PEDAL: Stereo jack designed to take an expression pedal such as a volume or wah-wah pedal. The volume function is the default setting unless you assigned a wah-wah effect for the given preset in PRE EFFECT MODE. (see 6.1, PRE EFFECT MODE).
