Input levels to the Dx46 can be reduced 6dB prior to the A/D converter to compensate for higher-level output from
mixers and other audio devices. For ideal signal to noise performance when connecting the Dx46 to high output level
devices engage the 6dB pad rather than turning down the output of the connected device. The Dx46's Input level
Meters (2) will indicate incoming signal level and whether attenuation is required. This LED is permanently yellow
when the 6dB pad is activated.

3.3 Installation

For proper operation, all directions regarding installation and connection must be followed.

OUNTING
The Dx46 should be mounted in a rack-mount enclosure or rack rails. The unit is 1RU tall by 14" (353mm) deep.
Proper clearance for air circulation around the unit must be provided. Do not block any vent holes on the unit. All
four mounting points provided by the rack ears must be secured.

OWER ONNECTION
The Dx46 must be connected to A.C. power only by means of the provided IEC A.C. cable or by a power cable
provided by the dealer / installer to match the configuration of your country or region. The Dx46 must only be con-
nected to a properly wired, three pin, grounded A.C. outlet. A.C. power must range from 100 to 240 V AC, 50 to
60Hz. The Dx46 internal power supply is an auto-ranging design; no adjustments are necessary to configure it for
proper A.C. power.

UDIO ABLES NALOG
Always use correctly shielded audio cables when connecting to the Dx46.
Balanced Input / Output Connections
To minimize induced noise caused by audio cables and to maximize the length of cables used, balanced connections
are strongly advised for both Inputs and Outputs.
The XLR jacks provided on the Dx46 are configured as pin 1 ground, pin 2 hot (+), pin 3 cold (-). Cable shielding
must be connected to pin 1. XLR – XLR cables or ¼" tip-ring-sleeve – XLR cables can both be used for balanced
connections to the Dx46.
