Appendix III: RHAON Hardware Inputs, Outputs & Indicators, Dimensions
To connect a loudspeaker to the RHAON network, you first make the hardware connections, and then (if you are using CobraNet for digital
audio distribution) assign signal routing using RHAON software. Since all Ethernet connections are made using RJ45 connectors and
CAT5 cable, the network infrastructure is cost-effective and easy to install. You can also connect Serial Digital (AES3 aka AES/EBU) and
analog audio to an IC-R array, as well as Fault Detect and Fault Relay lines.
Primary & Secondary Ethernet
Inputs
RJ45 female:
when both inputs are connected, if
Primary fails changeover to Secondary
is automatic. Yellow LED flashes when
the connector is active, glows steadily
when data is streaming. Green LEDs
glow when connected but inactive, turn
Orange to indicate a faulty connection.
Overdrive LED
Flashes red when the Primary Analog
Input preamplifier is being over driven
Signal LED
Flickers when an audio signal of at
least -30 dBu is present at the primary
analog audio input.
Primary Analog Input/Output
XLR female
pin 1 chassis, pin 2 +, pin 3 -
Looping Secondary Analog Output
Phoenix connector, Pin 1 +, Pin 2 -,
Pin 3 chassis
Fault Detect
Opto-isolated input used to monitor the
presence of an external wiring loop;
absence of a voltage is reported to the
DSP and transmitted to the monitoring
computer over the Ethernet. Operates on
5 to 24 V DC. Pin 5 +, Pin 6 -
Fault Relay
NO / NC relay contacts used to report a
failure to an external monitoring system;
used mainly to trigger a failure indication
on a hard-wired monitoring device; handles
up to 0.5 Amps at 24 V AC or DC. Pin 4
normally open, Pin 5 swing blade, Pin 6
normally closed.
Secondary Analog Input
Phoenix connector; pin 1 +, pin 2 -,
pin 3 chassis
Mute Button
Turn loudspeaker muting on & Off
Push Button Volume Controls
Also function as a manual Standby/
On control
Input Pad & LED Indicator
On / Off 10 dB pad for Primary
Analog Input; allows input signals of
up to +24 dBu when inserted
Power LED
Glows when amplifier power is On
Thermal LED
Lights to indicate that an over-temperature
sensor has shut down the amplifier
Voltage Selector
Not on all models
90/260 V AC
IEC Power Connector
& AC Line Fuse
NOTE: To prevent inadvertent operation the Mute, Volume Up & Volume Down, Input Pad and AES/EBU push buttons need to be pressed
and held down for several seconds before they activate.
Looping Analog Output
XLR female
pin 1 chassis, pin 2 +, pin 3 -
AC Power ON/Off
Not under computer control by RHAON.
RHAON software can put the amplifier in Standby, but
a remote computer cannot disconnect the AC power.
To toggle between On and Standby manually, hold
both the Up & Down Volume push buttons down for
approximately 3 seconds.
