Rear Panel
The rear panel provides six balanced XLR audio out-
puts, antenna inputs, "loop thru" antenna outputs from
an internal multicoupler, a power jack with a locking
connector, plus USB and RS-232 serial ports for setup
and control.
Receiver Modules
Up to six receiver modules can be installed in each
mainframe. Spring tensioned clips retain the receiver
modules to maintain secure connections with the host
assembly.
Audio Outputs
Six balanced XLR audio output jacks connect the Venue
receiver to external equipment. By default, pin 2 is au-
dio pos (+). The polarity of each output can be reversed
in the LCD setup menus or with the software.
Power Input
The receiver is powered from +10 VDC to +18 VDC,
with the center pin of the connector positive (+). The
input is diode protected to prevent damage if the power
is accidentally applied with reversed polarity. The con-
nector includes a threaded locking sleeve.
RS-232 Port
A serial RS-232 interface is provided for setup and
control of a Venue 2 system from computers or other
devices using industry standard RS-232 communication
links.

Antenna Inputs
The two outermost BNC connectors are provided for
use with right-angle whip antennas, cables from re-
mote antennas, or cables from another Venue receiv-
er. DC voltage can be supplied on these connectors
from an internal source to power remote RF amplifi-
ers. The power is enabled via the front panel menu.
See the section on Antenna Use and Placement for
details.
Multicoupler Outputs
The built-in antenna multicoupler provides RF distri-
bution for the six receiver modules and a "loop thru"
output at the same level to deliver the RF signal to
another Venue 2 receiver. The second receiver can
then feed a third receiver and so on, to create a
"stack" that operates with a single pair of antennas.
The result is very efficient use of rack space and a
cost savings by not having to purchase a separate
antenna multicoupler.
USB Port
Standard USB Version 1.1 port for setup and control
of the receiver from computer systems using
Windows® Vista
operating systems.
