Connecting the S zone
Get Connected !
The S zone's rear panel is where you will find all (except the
headphone jack) of the input and output connections. The
S zone provides four input channels that can accept up
to four line level sources and two microphones and four
output channels to feed the sound zones. The connections
for these inputs and outputs are made via standard Eurob-
lock connectors (the mating ends to connect to your wires
have been included). The Euroblock connectors are easy
to wire-up; just strip your wire, insert it into the Euroblock
connector and tighten down the screws. The next section
of this manual will detail the connections for the S zone's
inputs and outputs.

Connecting the S zone Inputs
After you have designed a plan for your installation you
will need to connect your audio sources to the S zone's
inputs. You may want to connect several devices like
microphones for paging, and other line level devices like
CD, DVD, MP3, TAPE or Karaoke players or perhaps a radio
tuner. Regardless of the sound source, it's important to
connect the inputs properly. Follow the section and wiring
diagrams below to connect your input sources.
The microphone inputs accept low impedance (100 to 600
ohms) balanced or unbalanced microphones.
Connect your microphones to inputs channel 1 and 2 us-
ing the following wiring guide.
Note: The S zone always provides 15 volts of phantom
power to the microphone inputs so you'll have no problem
using just about any condenser microphone. Dynamic
microphones can be connected as well.
Mic Input Wiring for Channel 1 and 2
Next connect your line inputs to channels 1 and 2 using
the wiring guide below.
These inputs are set to accept –10 dBV levels, which is the
standard for devices like most CD and DVD players.
Line Input Wiring for Channel 1 and 2
Now connect your line inputs to channels 3 and 4 using
the wiring guide below.
Line Input Wiring for Channel 3 and 4
These inputs are set to accept –10 dBV levels, which is the
standard for devices like most CD and DVD players.
