Phantom Power On/Off
The Model 210 can provide 48 volt nomi-

nal phantom power to the microphone

input. Switch SW1-8 controls whether or

not phantom power is active. By phantom

power’s very nature it could be left applied

to the microphone input at all times. But

generally people prefer to turn it off unless

required for a specific microphone.

the left and right headphone channels.

This would entail setting switches SW2-2

and SW2-6 to their on positions. All

other switches would remain in their

off positions.
A more complex application might have

a 2-channel IFB circuit connected to the

Model 210, with an optional line input

card installed and line-level audio from

a golf event “spotter” connected to that.

In a case such as this, it would be typi-

cal for IFB channel 1 to be assigned to

the head-phone’s left channel, IFB chan-

nel 2 assigned to the right channel, and

auxiliary input 1 also assigned to the right

channel. This would allow both IFB chan-

nel 2 and “spotter” audio to be heard in

the head-phone’s right-channel output. To

achieve this would require that switches

SW2-1, SW2-6, and SW2-7 be placed in

Headphone Source Selection

Switch assembly SW2 is used to configure

the source or sources that are routed to

the stereo headphone output. The head-

phone sources are IFB channel 1, IFB

channel 2, auxiliary input 1, and auxiliary

input 2. The IFB channels are provided by

way of the IFB input connector located on

the Model 210’s back panel. The auxiliary

inputs are available only if the optional

line input cards have been installed or a

special Model 210 configuration has been

implemented.
Each of the available input sources can

be assigned to the headphone output’s

left channel, right channel, or both the

left and right channels. The Model 210’s

circuitry allows any combination of input

assignments to be made. For example,

consider the situation where a single-

channel IFB system, with both program

and interrupt audio on pin 3, is connected

to the Model 210. In this case it may be

desirable to assign this IFB signal to both
