Page 3: General Description
Ethernet. It is intended to be used with a Lance Design ADX-2400N providing the 'truck end' interface functions. One ADX-2400 operating in 'announce booth' mode will support up to four ADX-140s or ADX-120 announce units in any combination. - Page 4 See the REMOTE pinout on page 22 for connection information. POWER The ADX-140 may be powered in either of two ways: There is a wide-range AC input on the rear panel (95-250 Volts, 50/60 Hz), or the unit may be powered via the Cat5 Ethernet cable from an ADX-8000 switch/power supply.
- Page 5 This is referred to in this manual as 'the network'. Each ADX-2400 unit can support up to four ADX-120 or ADX-140 units, in any combination. The remote devices are identified by the ADX-2400s by a SYSTEM ID number, which is set by a two-digit rotary switch on the remote device (rear panel of the ADX- 120, front panel of the ADX-140).

- Page 7 The Truck End ADX-2400N Front Panel The ADX-140 Interface Units connect via Ethernet (copper or fiber) to a standard ADX-2400 Audio Distribution unit in the truck. These units are available in either analog or AES configurations, and have been well-proven through several years of widespread application in high-end mobile units and other applications.

- Page 10 These menus configure the hardware of the remote device itself, and are specific to the particular model, i.e. the ADX-120 has different options from the ADX-140 because of differences in their hardware capabilities. These menus configure such things as preamp gain, phantom power, IFB output configurations, headset impedence (level), button color, etc.
- Page 11 ADX140 as D, for example, it's easy to exclude it from the mix. Accessing Remote Menus from the ADX-2400 The configuration items for the ADX-120 and ADX-140 units are accessable from the front panel of the ADX-2400.
- Page 12 ADX-140 Remote Menu Items The ADX-140 menu items for firmware version 1.0 are listed below. These items may be accessed from the ADX-2400 front panel, or via the RS-232 remote port on the ADX-140 front panel (the 'Remote' connector).

- Page 14 The remaining menu items are status items Status Item 01 – PCB Temperature This item displays internal temperature of the ADX-140 in degrees Centigrade. Nominal temperature is in the 35 - 45 degree range, depending on ambient and PL and IFB loading.
- Page 15 Display of the version number of the firmware installed in the ADX-140. Accessing the ADX-140 Menu Via the Remote Connector The ADX-140 menus are also accessable via the RS-232 port in the Remote Control connector on the rear panel. Although it's unlikely that you would need this function it allows configuration of the unit in a case where it might be operated with Cobranet hardware other than the ADX-2400.
- Page 16 Setting up Truck End Routing in the ADX-2400 (Channel Setup) The ADX-2400 at the truck has routers which select the following: Talkback paths from the announce boxes to physical Talkback outputs. Mixes may also be selected so that external talkback mixing is not required. ...
- Page 17 It is possible to have a fully-redundant network operating in parallel with the primary network. This of course requires two switches at each location, but provides a very high degree of reliability at moderate additional cost. Contact Lance Design for more information about this type of operation. (continued)
