Info

The second power connection on the ESF and ES2 provides an input for a redundant backuppower supply. With two EPS1 supplies in use, should one fail, the secondary ESP1 willautomatically and seamlessly take over. The ESP1 is 2 RU and available in 120VAC or 230VACversions.The ESP1 supplies five different DC voltages to operate the ES unit. Actual values, measuredthrough the cable at the ESF, are +15.8VDC, -15.8VDC, +48.8VDC, +4.3VDC and +6.0VDC.The front panel of the ESP1 provides an on/off switch, AC input fuse, DC output fuses and LEDsto indicate proper operation. There are separate internal AC input fuses for each individualsupply in the ESP1.The connecting cable is 13AWG eight-conductor cable, terminated with NL8 connectors. Therecommended maximum cable length is five feet. The NL8 was chosen for it’s high currentcarrying capacity and ready availability.DO NOT PLUG THE ESP1 INTO SPEAKER CABINETS OR PLUG POWER AMPOUTPUTS INTO E SNAKE FRAMES!!!2.1.3 Rear panel connectionsRear panel view
Analog AudioAudio connections are made through 12 pin Phoenix type terminal plugs. Each plug connectsfour balanced audio channels.CobraNet ConnectionEthernet connections are made via these RJ45 jacks. The Primary jack should be used to connectto the Ethernet switch. The Secondary jack is provided for redundant network connection.ESP1 POWER SUPPLY A and B INPUTNL8 Speakon ® connectors are used to connect the ES unit to the ESP1 power supply. ES2contains its own internal primary power supply. Use the “External Power Supply” in to connectan ESP1 supply for redundant backup.Either A or B connector can be used with the ESF and the second connector allows the use oftwo supplies to create backup redundancy. Five-foot cables are provided with the ESP1 andrepresent the suggested maximum cable length.Word Clock BNC JacksWord Clock IN and THRU connections provide a method of synchronizing the CobraNetnetwork to an external word clock. Connection needs to be made to only one ES unit and thenthat unit will become the conductor for the CobraNet network. All other CobraNet devices willsync to the conductor. (See Section 4.1) The second BNC jack is a parallel connection for daisychaining the word clock signal to other devices but only one ES unit may be connected to themaster word clock.(ESF ONLY) Alternately, a single ESF unit can synchronize the CobraNet system by using theAES/EBU sync from channels 7 and 8 on input slot number four. Again, this ESF will becomethe system conductor upon detecting AES/EBU sync.Analog Input ConnectionsAnalog connections are made via Phoenix connector jacks and plugs supplied with the variousI/O cards. Refer to these diagrams for making the proper connections.
