3.
If you are using an external RS-232 controller or the AP IR remote,
connect it to the RS-232 port [F].
4.
Wire the inputs and outputs to the AP800 using the provided three-terminal
Phoenix push-on connectors. These connectors are designed for easy wiring;
simply insert the desired wire into the appropriate connector opening and
tighten down the top screw.
•
Mic 1–8 [D] Mic or line level inputs
•
Inputs A–D [B] Line level inputs only
•
Outputs A–D, 1–8 [C] Line level outputs
When connecting, use the screened legend on the back of the unit;
overlapping from one channel to another can cause improper operation.
5.
Connect the speaker wire to the + (red) and – (black) binding post
connectors. A 4–16
Ω
speaker can be directly connected to the XAP 400,
eliminating the need for an external power amplifier.
6.
Plug in the AP800 to complete the installation. The power output [A] will
operate at any level between 100–240VAC and 50–60Hz.
If you are installing only one AP800 and are not connecting it to any other AP units,
you have completed the hardware installation.
G-Link connections
Using the G-Link connectors, you can connect up to eight AP800/400s and 16 AP10
units, where the total number of microphone inputs does not exceed 64. Make
connections between units in daisy-chain fashion using the short RJ-45 jumper
(provided). If your units are further apart (maximum distance 20 feet/6.1 meters),
use category-five twisted-pair cable (10 BaseT).
For a single-unit system, no connection is required in either G-Link In or
G-Link Out connectors.
The three terminals in
the Phoenix connector
correspond with the rear-
panel audio contacts (from left to
right): + (positive), – (negative),
and
(ground).
