Interconnecting BE-1 and LE-1 remote input plates
The Cloud LE-1 is an alternative optional remote line input plate, providing an
unbalanced stereo line input on phono sockets and a 3.5mm jack socket. BE-1 plates
may be intermixed with LE-1s in a daisy-chain wiring arrangement in the manner
described for BE-1s alone, using the LE-1’s OUTPUT and LINK connectors. All the
plates on a chain will be treated as a single line input at the DCM-1.
Note that is not possible to intermix BE-1s with Cloud ME-1 remote microphone input
plates in this manner.
DC Power
The BE-1 is powered from the DCM-1’s EXTENSION PORTs via the CAT-5 connection.
The BE-1 consumes 24mA of current from the DCM-1 power supply.
If there is any doubt regarding the DCM-1’s spare DC power capacity (as might be the
case in a very large system with many CDR-1 remote controls, level restoration relays,
etc.), please refer to page 53 of the DCM-1 Installation and User Guide where full
details of the DCM-1’s PSU ratings can be found.
Should you have any questions concerning the installation and connection of the BE-1,
please contact our Technical Support staff (details on front cover).
