The 160S is connected for operation using the rear panel XLR connectors. Note that the two rear panel
input sections have a push-switch which lifts the contact on pin #1 (ground). Keep this switch in the
OFF position (pin #1 connected) until all connections are made. Be sure that your input and output
cables are wired in the “pin 2-hot” configuration, which is printed on the rear panel of the 160S. For
more information on other types of connections, refer to the section entitled Operating Notes.
When connecting the 160S, refer to the following steps:
• Turn OFF all equipment BEFORE making any connections.
• Mount the 160S in a 2U rack space. (Optional)
The 160S requires a two rack-space height and a standard 19 inch rack-
space width. It can be mounted above or below anything that doesn’t
create excessive heat, since it requires no special ventilation. Ambient
temperatures should not exceed 113°F (45°C) when equipment is pow-
ered.
Caution:
Never remove the cover. There are no user serviceable parts inside.
• Make connections via XLR connectors.
• Plug in AC power cable and power ON the unit.
Note: Check the line voltage printed on the rear panel of the 160S and verify that it
is correct for your area.
Two Basic Compressor Setups:
A: Channel One shows processing of a
group or aux master output. Signal goes
to the 160S input from the output/insert
send of the console, and returns to the
console via the input/insert return of
the same group/aux on the console.
B: Channel Two shows connections for
processing a signal from a single chan-
nel. Input of the 160S is fed by the
channel insert output/send, and returns
to the console via the insert
input/return.
