Feature Description
Stage announce output
This male 3-pin XLR connector allows a line-level audio signal,
typically from wireless beltpacks or 4-Wire sources, to be sent to a
paging system or other audio system. It is transformer-isolated.
Level adjustment is done via the front- panel display programming.
More than one audio source at a time can be routed to the Stage
Announce, with the audio being combined to give a single audio
output.
Stage announce relay
This DB-9 male connector provides a relay closure that is triggered
simultaneously with the SA Output. The relay may be used to open
an audio pathway for the signal from the SA Output, or could also be
used to activate a light or lock or some other device. The relay may
be wired for normally closed or normally open operation, and the
signal appears on pins 1 & 6 or 2 & 6. It is rated to a maximum of
30-VDC at 1 amp.
Four-wire matrix ports
These four RJ-45 connectors can connect four full-duplex (input pair
and output pair) audio connections from a 4-wire communications
device, digital matrix intercom, or similar – making them available to
the wireless beltpacks. Any of the 4-wire ports or the program input
can be assigned as IFB sources from the front panel.
Each of these connectors has its own time slot, and can be addressed
separately from a beltpack, or combined with other beltpacks and
rear-panel connectors in a group. Level adjustment is done via the
front-panel display programming.
Base loop connector
The connector has no function in FS II.
LAN connector
This RJ-45 connector allows the Base station to be connected to a
LAN for system software upgrades and configuration downloads from
the Configuration Editor. It is a 10BaseT Ethernet port.
PC connector.
This female DB-9 connects to a PC computer for firmware updates
and monitoring of the system configuration. It functions as a serial
port.
