Manual-3

REAR PANEL DESCRIPTION

XLR INPUT/OUTPUTS: Nothing new here, balanced Ins and Outs. If you can tolerate unbalanced characteristics (like

hum), you can also wire the AVA 22d in an unbalanced configuration. See RaneNote 110, “Sound System Interconnection”
located elsewhere in this manual.

Front panel lockout switch: Enables the Front Panel Lockout mode. In this mode all front panel controls, with the excep-

tion of the RECALL buttons, are disabled. Press a RECALL button while in LOCKOUT to temporarily display, but not
Recall, the value of the other stored Memory for the given Channel. (See Operating Instructions for optional Bypass
Lockout mode.)

REMOTE RECALL & BYPASS terminals: Wiring external configuration switches to these terminals allows remote

stereo bypassing or stereo memory recalling of the two nonvolatile memories. These terminals use CMOS (+5 volt) logic
levels and source only 0.5 mA (max) each.

POWER connector: No, this is not where commissioner Gordon plugs in his Bat-phone, in fact it is not a telephone jack at

all. The AVA 22d uses an 18 volt AC center-tapped transformer only. Use only a model RS 1, RAP 10 or other remote AC
power supply approved by Rane
. The AVA 22d is supplied with a remote power supply suitable for connection to this jack.
Consult the factory for replacement or substitution.

Chassis ground point: A #6-32 screw and toothed washer is provided for chassis ground. Since the AVA 22d does not get

chassis ground through the AC cord, this point is provided if your system does not have another earth ground such as the
rack rails.

equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or
television reception, which can be determined by turning
the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to
correct the interference by one or more of the following:
1. Re-orient or relocate the receiving antenna.
2. Increase the separation between the equipment and the

the Canadian Interference-Causing Equipment Regulations.

Cet Appariel numerique de la classe B respecte toutes

les exigences du Reglement sur le material broilleur du
Canada.

CHASSIS GROUNDING

If after hooking up your system it exhibits excessive

hum or buzzing, there is an incompatibility in the grounding
configuration between units. Here are some things to try:
1. Try combinations of lifting grounds on units supplied

with ground lift switches (or links).

2. Verify all chassis are tied to a good earth ground.
3. Some units with outboard power supplies do not ground

the chassis through the line cord. Make sure these units
are solidly grounded by tying the Chassis Ground Point
to known earth ground. Use a star washer to guarantee
proper contact.
