Joker Active systems
Connection Plate
H) AC MAINS INPUT: Mains supply connection via PowerCon. Blue connector for AC
in.
Always use mains power cable supplied by manufacturer.
Never connect the Joker cabinets to an unearthed mains supply or by
using an unearthed mains cable.
I) BALANCED INPUT/LINK:
XLR-3 Female balanced signal connector for signal input.
XLR-3 Male connector for parallel connection of various cabinets with the same input
signal. IMPORTANT: Please always use balanced microphone cable with the
following pin assignment: 1= Shield (Ground)
J) AC LINK: Grey connector to feed other units in parallel. Linking up to 10 units is
possible, provided that a quality cable of a minimum section of 3x2.5mm
Connecting more than 10 units in parallel may lead to a voltage drop in the cable that
will reduce the equipment performance.
2.2. Configurations
2.2.1. Parallel connection
Connect the signal (mixing desk output) to INPUT on the first unit. Use the LINK
output to transfer the INPUT signal to the second unit and thus sequentially for
further units. All of the units in this chain must be switched on. For the mains
connection use the cable with the blue Neutrik PowerCon NAC3FCA.
You can use the mains connection in parallel by using a cable with grey Neutrik
PowerCon NAC3FCB at one end and the blue Neutrik PowerCon NAC3FCA at the
other end.
Do not connect Joker series units using PowerCon without earth.
Do not connect more than ten units using the AC output link connector.
