6—Using the S-4000 System
Input Status Indicators
Each S-4000S input has three status indicators:
•
+48V—lights orange when +48 V phantom power is supplied from
the channel.
•
CLIP—lights red when the input signal exceeds 0 dB.
•
SIG—lights green when the input signal is greater than -40 dB.
The CLIP and SIG signal status indicators represent the signal level in the digital domain (post-
A/D conversion). Signals exceeding 0 dB will clip, resulting in distortion.
Preamp gain and phantom power on/off status are controlled from the S-4000R. See Pages 66-69 for
more information.
S-4000S Audio Outputs
The S-4000S's audio outputs are used to receive audio signals connected to the S-4000H's audio
inputs.
Connect the S-4000S's eight balanced audio outputs to the balanced audio inputs of the desired
devices.
If you need to connect the S-4000S's audio outputs to unbalanced devices, use a direct box or
balancing adaptor in-line, or a cable adaptor with the wiring described in the previous section
(S-4000S Audio Inputs).
