User manual ART DUALXDIRECT

[. . . ] DUALXDirect Dual Channel Active Direct Box ARTcessories The DUALXDirect provides two independent high quality active interfaces that let you connect instrument, line, or speaker level signals to a mixer or other balanced inputs. [. . . ] When powered by a battery, it draws less than 7. 5 mA which should provide more than 100 hours of operation with a new battery (alkaline recommended). If phantom power is available, then the DUALXDirect will automatically draw its power from the external source. The POWER ON/OFF switch lights more dimly when the unit is running off of the battery, lights more brightly when it is running off of phantom power, and is off when the unit is inactive. The compact black-anodized all aluminum case and it's active design allow the DUALXDirect to provide years of trouble free service in Live Sound, Permanent/Fixed Install, D. J. , and virtually any PA application. It's full feature set, rugged construction, and high-end specifications make the DUALXDirect the obvious choice.

Connect one end of a phone jack cable to the corresponding THRU 1/4' TRS phone jack and the other end to where your signal was going to, if connecting the DUALXDirect inline in the signal path. Connect a balanced line cable between the corresponding OUTPUT 1 or 2 male XLR connector on the rear panel and the balanced inputs of your audio gear. If phantom power is not available, make sure a 9V battery is installed and push the POWER switch in to enable battery power.
