INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing the DB228 Wall mount Direct Interface. This sturdy device is
designed and manufactured to the most demanding specications in order to provide
years of faithful service. The DB228 converts high impedance audio signals (1/8" stereo
input), or XLR microphone input to a low impedance output via Rolls proprietary audio
transformer.
DESCRIPTION
FRONT PANEL
- INPUT: XLR balanced input jack for connection to a microphone.
- INPUT: 1/8" (3.5mm) Tip-Ring-Sleeve jack for connection to an unbalanced Stereo signal.
- Level: Adjusts the input level of both the Stereo 1/8" input and the XLR input.
REAR PANEL
-
- Plugable barrier strip connector on the back of the DB228. This is a balanced output.
Pin 2 is hot or +, pin 3 is the out of phase signal or -, and pin 1 is ground.
CONNECTION / OPERATION
Plug a microphone into the XLR input on the front of the unit. The Level will control the
volume of the XLR input.
1/8" (3.5mm) Jack: Connect a Tip-Ring-Sleeve stereo plug into this jack. NOTE: Connect-
ing a Tip-Sleeve MONO plug into this jack might lead to low volume being sent out as
the right side will be shorted to ground if a mono plug is used.
Connect the plugable barrier strip connector to the microphone input wires.
The DB228 will passively send signals plugged into the front panel of the DB228 to the
rear plugable barrier strip connector. The Level knob will adjust the volume of both the
1/8" and XLR input. You can use both the XLR and 1/8" inputs at the same time. Both
signals will be sent to the barrier strip output of the DB228. When using both inputs at
the same time you might have a dierence in level between the 1/8" input and the XLR
input. This is normal operation for the DB228.
