4 Setting up /
Connecting the Unit
The control unit and the replay unit are
designed for installation into a rack for units
with a width of 482 mm (19"), but they can
also be used as tabletop units. The replay
unit must always be operated horizontally,
whereas the control unit can be installed as
desired, e. g. also inclined. For rack instal-
lation, 2 rack spaces each are required for
the control unit and the replay unit (1 RS =
44.45 mm).

to connect the control unit to the replay
unit:
Connect the jack CONNECT TO CON-
TROL UNIT 1 (30) of replay unit 1 to the
jack CONNECT TO MAIN UNIT 1 of
operating unit 1. Proceed in the same
way to make a connection between
replay unit 2 and operating unit 2.
2) Connect each of the signal outputs LINE
OUT (28, 31) to a line level input of a
mixer or amplifier, for example (likely let-
tering: Line, CD, Aux).
