THIS OUTPUT IS NOT USED FOR 4‑WAY MONO OPERATION.

4‑WAY USERS SEE INTERNAL SWITCH INSTRUCTIONS ON PREVIOUS PAGE.

Observe the labels below the Inputs and Outputs for Mono operation.

1

MONO INPUT:

Connect the output from your mixer or other signal source only to the CHANNEL 1 INPUT for Mono opera-

tion; do not use the Channel 2 Input. Pin 2 is “hot” per AES standards.

2

SUBWOOFER OUTPUT:

Connect the SUB OUT to the input of the subwoofer (or bass bin) amplifier.

3

LOW OUTPUT:

Connect the LOW OUT to the input of the low frequency (mid-bass) amp.

4

MID OUTPUT:

Connect the MID OUT to the input of the mid frequency amplifier.

5

HlGH-MID OUTPUT (FOR MONO 5-WAY ONLY):

Use this Output only for Mono 5-Way applications. Omit this output

when using the AC 23B as a Mono 4-Way Crossover. Mono 4-Way Switch Instructions are on the previous page. In 4-Way the AC 23B

internally bypasses the High-Mid section and defeats all front panel High-Mid Controls. For Mono 5-Way connect the HIGH-MID

OUT to the input of the high-mid frequency amplifier.

6

HIGH OUTPUT:

Connect the HIGH OUT to the input of the high frequency (tweeter) amp.

7

2-WAY / 3-WAY switches:

Converts each channels outputs from 3-Way to 2-Way. For Mono 4-or 5-Way, slide these switches to the

3-WAY position.

8

MONO-STEREO switch:

Push this to the MONO in position.

9

POWER input connector:

Use only a model RS 1 or other power supply approved by Rane. This unit is supplied with a remote

power supply suitable for connection to this input jack.

0

Chassis ground point:

A #6-32 screw is used for chassis grounding purposes. Always connect the crossover chassis to the ampli-

fier chassis. See ‘Chassis Grounding’ on page Manual-1 for details.
