5.6 SIGNAL
LEVELS
The Input to Output gain on the MS1224 is 0dB i.e. unity. Maximum input signal
level will depend on the setting of the PAD switch.
The 0dB position (switch up) is for microphone levels and maximum input level is
0dBu i.e. 0.775Vrms. The -20dB position should be used for line level signals.
Maximum input level is then +20dBu and overall voltage gain will be -20dB.
Maximum Output level from the MS1224 is +20dBu into a 600R load.

MULTIWAY CONNECTOR OPTION
In the standard ex-works configuration the connector panel on the MS1224 Active

connector panel is available with cut outs for up to three 56way EDAC style
connectors - see following diagram.
