2.1

Achieving the Best Performance

To achieve the best performance:



Use only good quality connection cables (we recommend Kramer high-

performance, high-resolution cables) to avoid interference, deterioration in

signal quality due to poor matching, and elevated noise levels (often

associated with low quality cables)



Do not secure the cables in tight bundles or roll the slack into tight coils

Avoid interference from neighboring electrical appliances that may adversely

influence signal quality



Position your Kramer 482xl away from moisture, excessive sunlight and dust

This equipment is to be used only inside a building. It may only be

connected to other equipment that is installed inside a building.

Overview

The 482xl is a high−performance audio transcoder for balanced and unbalanced

stereo audio signals. The unit has two separate channels (both function

independently; use just one channel or both channels simultaneously) that

convert:



An unbalanced audio input signal to a balanced audio output signal on one

channel

Balanced audio is more immune to noise and interference.



A balanced audio input signal to an unbalanced audio output signal on the

other channel

In addition, the 482xl Bi-directional Audio Transcoder features:



Gain or attenuation adjustments while transcoding, to compensate for the

14dB change between IHF audio levels and the state-of-the-art balanced

DAT input levels



Very low-noise and low-distortion components

Connecting the 482xl

Always switch off the power to each device before connecting it to your

482xl. After connecting your 482xl, connect its power and then switch

on the power to each device.

To convert the audio input signals at the UNBAL IN (to the balanced audio output)

and the BALANCED IN (to the unbalanced audio output) connectors, as the

example illustrated in Figure 2 shows, do the following:

1. Connect the unbalanced audio source (for example, an unbalanced audio

player) to the UNBAL IN 3-pin terminal block connector.

2. Connect the BALANCED OUT 5-pin terminal block connector to the

balanced audio acceptor (for example, a balanced audio recorder).

3. Connect the balanced audio source (for example, a balanced audio player)

to the BALANCED IN 5-pin terminal block connector.

4. Connect the UNBAL OUT 3-pin terminal block connector to the unbalanced

audio acceptor (for example an unbalanced audio recorder).

5. Connect the 12V DC power adapter to the power socket and connect the

adapter to the mains electricity (not shown in Figure 2 ).

4.1 Adjusting the Audio Output Level

The 482xl Bi-directional Audio Transcoder comes factory pre-set for 1:1

transparency.

Readjusting the 482xl Bi-directional Audio Transcoder upsets this transparency. However, if

necessary, you can fine-tune both channels’ audio output levels.

To adjust the appropriate audio output levels:

1. Insert a screwdriver into one of the four small holes on the lower side of the

482xl Bi-directional Audio Transcoder, enabling access to the appropriate

trimmer.

2. Carefully rotate the screwdriver, adjusting the appropriate audio output level,

as required.
