Connecting the 1046 to your system
To connect the 1046 to your system, refer to the following steps:
Y Turn off all equipment before making any connections.
Y Mount the 1046 in a rack
Install the 1046 in a rack with the rack screws provided. It can be mounted above or below
anything that does not generate excessive heat. Ambient temperatures should not exceed
113u F (45u C) when equipment is in use. Although the unit is shielded against radio frequency
and electromagnetic interference, extremely high fields of RF and EMI should be avoided.
Y Make audio connections via XLR, 1/4� TRS, or 1/4� TS plugs.
Both types of connectors for the inputs and outputs can be used for balanced or unbalanced
connections. The use of more than one connector at a time for the input/output pair could
unbalance balanced lines, cause phase cancellations, short a conductor to ground, or cause
damage to other equipment connected to the 1046.
Y Apply power to the 1046
Connect the AC power cord to the AC power receptacle on the back of the unit. Route the AC
power cord to a convenient power outlet away from audio lines. The unit may be turned on
and off via the rear panel power switch or from a master equipment power switch.
