Front panel Input card monitoring Each channel has 3 LED indicators showing: Clip Illuminated - Indicates clipping in the analogue domain for each channel of the fitted Input or Output card. The LED will illuminate at +18.5dB. Signal Illuminated - The Signal LED will illuminate for each channel of a fitted Input or Output card when the signal reaches or exceeds the signal threshold of -20dB.
Front panel details Audio cable wiring All audio and control connections to the BLU-80/BLU-32/BLU-16 are via Klippon pluggable terminal block connectors (also known as BL, Phoenix or Combicon). 6-way female Klippon connectors are supplied for making these connections. Audio Input and Output wiring convention Soundweb products provide cable shielding ‘back from the destination’ to eliminate ground loop problems.
Rear panel BLU-80 shown. BLU-32 layout is identical. BLU-16 has no CobraNetTM or Buddy Link connections but is otherwise identical to the BLU-80 and BLU-32. AC Mains AC Mains input to the universal switched-mode power supply, operates over a wide range of AC input voltages from 85V to 270V, 50/60Hz. CobraNet Connectors Primary/Secondary The CobraNetTM compatible devices within the SoundwebTM London system are fitted with a Peak Audio CobranetTM CM-1 module.
CONTROL INPUTS Used to connect switches or potentiometers, e.g. BLU-3 selector wallplate (Part no. ZBLU-3). Looking at the control port connector (on the back of the unit), there are two common (ground) connections C to the left of the eight CONTROL INPUTS and, two software assignable reference voltage outputs R to the right. The control ports now have two modes of operation. In Soundweb Designer’s Control Ports window these are labelled ‘2-wire’ and ‘3-wire’.
