28.2 Connector Pinouts
TRS jacks of analog input / output
The stereo ¼" TRS jacks of the analog inputs and outputs are wired according to international
standards:
Tip = + (hot) Ring = – (cold) Sleeve = GND
The servo balanced input and output circuitry allows to use monaural TS jacks (unbalanced)
with no loss in level. This is the same as when using a TRS-jack with ring connected to ground.
TRS Phones jack
The analog monitor output on the front is
accessible through a stereo ¼" TRS jack.
This allows a direct connection of head-
phones. In case the output should operate
as Line output, an adapter TRS plug to RCA
phono plugs, or TRS plug to TS plugs is
required.
The pin assignment follows international
standards. The left channel is connected to
the tip, the right channel to the ring of the
TRS jack/plug.
