Manual-3

1

3-WAY / 4-WAY switch:

Converts the outputs from 3-Way to 4-Way. This switch removes the Hi-Mid frequency crossover from

the signal path — the HI-MID / HIGH Frequency control and all HI-MID controls are disabled. The MID / HI-MID Frequency

control becomes the MID / HIGH Frequency control.

2

CHANNEL A and B INPUTS:

Plug the outputs of the mixer, equalizer or other source to these Inputs.*

3

LOW Outputs:

Connect the CHANNEL A LOW Output to the left channel input of the low frequency amplifier, and the

CHANNEL B LOW Output to the right channel input of the low amplifier. If you need a summed Mono Low Output, use the

CHANNEL A Output (see 7).*

4

MID Outputs:

Connect the CHANNEL A MID Output to the left channel input of the amplifier, and the CHANNEL B Mid

Output to the right channel input of the amplifier.*

5

HI-MID Outputs:

Are only used in 4-WAY mode. Connect the CHANNEL A HI-MID Output to the left channel input of the

amplifier, and the CHANNEL B HI-MID Output to the right channel input of the amplifier.*

6

HIGH Outputs:

Connect the CHANNEL A HIGH Output to the left channel input of the high frequency amp, and the CHAN-

NEL B HIGH Output to the right channel input of the high frequency amp.*

7

CHANNEL A LOW Output:

Connect this Output to the input of the low frequency amplifier when the MONO LOW switch is

activated on the front panel. It contains the sum of both CHANNEL A and B LOW signals.*

8

SUM Outputs:

Are a sum of the LOW, MID, HI-MID, and HIGH Outputs. The Sum Outputs are useful to connect to instru-

mentation devices as indicated in the setup procedure. Use the Sum Outputs for split-band EQ and/or split-band Limiter applica-

tions. When using the Sum Outputs, it is important to note that CD Horn EQ and Delays affect the summed output. If you want a

flat response, do not use delay or CD Horn EQ when using these Sum Outputs.*

9

Output INVERT switches:

may assist in keeping drivers in-phase without having to rewire connections. Linkwitz-Riley filter Out-

puts are always in phase with correct polarity. Be sure the amplifiers are off before changing any of these switches.

0

Power connector:

Uses the standard cord provided. Inside the AC 24 is a universal internal switching power supply that accepts

100 to 240 VAC at 50 to 60 Hz, allowing it to work in most countries.

*Note: In agreement with IEC and AES/ANSI standards, wiring convention is pin 2 positive, pin 3 is negative (return), pin 1 is shield chassis

ground.
