3.1
AUDIO INPUT
The input to the AGC-100 uses five of the ten screw terminals on
the rear of the AGC-100:
For optimum results, use twisted-pair cable with an overall shield.
Connect the Right and Left shields together to the common ground
terminal. When in the stereo mode, both channel inputs should be
connected to the signal, even if the signal is mono. (Simply hook a
short jumper wire from the Left High terminal to the Right High
terminal, and another jumper from Left Low to Right Low.)
3.2
AUDIO OUTPUT
The audio output uses the other five screw terminals, with the same
terminal sequence as the inputs:
3.2.1
If driving an unbalanced load, the High terminal carries the signal
and the Low terminal is to be connected to the shield, which should
generally be grounded at the load end only, in order to minimize
ground loops.
3.2.2
If driving a balanced load, the shield should generally be connected
at one end only, that being at the load end, in order to minimize
ground loops. Be sure that the chassis of the AGC-100 and the
load are both grounded, which is usually done by the power cord
safety ground and/or the mounting rack frame ground.

OPERATION, CALIBRATION

4.0
In brief, when power is applied, and either OFF / SETUP or ON
mode is selected, the AGC-100 is active. The gain setting
(calibration) should be done in the Setup mode only, while listening
to typical program material through the AGC-100. Following gain
calibration, the unit may be switched to the Run mode, which will
allow it to automatically correct the program level as necessary.
The remainder of this section elaborates on this paragraph.
