REAR PANEL CONTROLS & CONNECTORS 

 
 

 

 

LINE connectors A - F 

These XLR-3 connectors are for connecting the 8 
intercom party lines (standard microphone cable) 
 
Pin assignments : 
pin 1:  0V / ground shield 
pin 2:  +30V power wire 
pin 3:  audio wire 
 

AUX INPUT connectors 

These two XLR-3 Aux inputs are electronically 
balanced and accept audio levels between 

–18dBu 

to +22dBu on line level and 

–38dBu to +2dBu on 

mic level. 
 
Pin assignments : 
pin 1:  0V / ground 
pin 2:   
pin 3:  signal - 
 

10 

MIC / LINE switches  

With these switches Line level or Mic level for each 
AUX input can be selected. When mic level is 
selected, a +30V DC phantom power is supplied to 
pins 2 and 3 of the AUX input connector. 
 

11 

MIC GAIN trimmers 

These trimmers adjust the sensitivity of the AUX 
input when mic level is selected. 
 

12 

FUSE holder 

The fuse protects the PS 680 against severe internal 
damage, in case of malfunction of the internal power 
supplies.  
 

Before replacing the fuse the mains cord must 
be removed.  The fuse has to be T 1250 mA for 
all mains voltages 100 

– 240V AC.

MAINS inlet 

IEC Mains connector. For correct wiring see section 
6.0.

REMOTE MUTE C AUX      

             OUTPUTS connector 

The Mic Mute and Buzzer Mute push buttons on the 
front panel of the PS 680 allow for sending these 
mute signals  to all channels simultaneously.  
In case it is required that these mute signals can 
also be sent to each channel separately, an external 
switch box is needed which may be connected to 
this D25 connector.  
 

 
 
Using this switch box Mic or Buzzer mute signals 
can be sent to all channels simultaneously OR to 
each channel separately.  
 
To activate a mic of buzzer mute, the switch box 
connects the required pins of the D-25 connector to 
ground. See D-25 pin layout below.  
 
The external switch box is made to order. Specific 
requirements of the user as far as for instance  type 
of switches can be fulfilled.  
 
On the D-25 connector are also available the 
unbalanced AUX signals, on pin 2 and 3. It concerns 
the pre-amplified signals taken after the AUX master 
volume controls (#6) before they are sent to the Aux 
matrix. Use high impedance loads only (minimum  
20 kΩ); lower loads may disrupt the AUX signals to 
the intercom lines.
