Line Receptacle and 
Fuse 

Power  is  connected  to  the  9260  through  the  line  receptacle.  The 
amplifier  accepts  any  voltage  from  80  to  265Vac  and  there  is  no 
need  to  select  the  voltage  range  between  different  countries. 
Instructions  how  to  connect  the  line  cord  and  how  to  replace  the 
line  fuse  is  given  in  Chapter  2.  If  a  fuse  blows,  make  sure  you 
replace it with the same type and rating to avoid possible damage 
to the product from unsuitable fuse value. 

 

Auxiliary Inputs 
Channel 1 

There are two Channel 1 auxiliary inputs on the rear panel marked 
INPUT and OFFSET.  

The  INPUT  connector  can  be  used  as  summing  input  to  the  front 
panel signal. It also can be used as the main input if connectors are 
available on the back only. However, the output is always from the 
front panel connectors. Observe the input limitations as specified in 
Appendix A to avoid damage to the amplifier circuit.   

The OFFSET connector is used for dc signals only. Use this input 
to offset your signal to any direction, positive or negative however, 
always  observe  the  positive  and  negative  rail  limitations  as 
specified in Appendix A to avoid damaging the amplifier circuits. 

With  normal  configuration,  this  input  is  used  for  driving  the  front 
panel  output  for  channel  1  only.  When  the  9260  is  configured  for 
differential outputs, channel 2 auxiliary inputs are disabled and only 
channel 1 signal is amplified. 

 

Auxiliary Inputs 
Channel 2 

There are two Channel 2 auxiliary inputs on the rear panel marked 
INPUT and OFFSET.  

The  INPUT  connector  can  be  used  as  summing  input  to  the  front 
panel signal. It also can be used as the main input if connectors are 
available on the back only. However, the output is always from the 
front panel connectors. Observe the input limitations as specified in 
Appendix A to avoid damage to the amplifier circuit.   

The OFFSET connector is used for dc signals only. Use this input 
to offset your signal to any direction, positive or negative however, 
always  observe  the  positive  and  negative  rail  limitations  as 
specified in Appendix A to avoid damaging the amplifier circuits. 

With  normal  configuration,  this  input  is  used  for  driving  the  front 
panel  output  for  channel  2  only.  When  the  9260  is  configured  for 
differential  outputs,  these  inputs  are  disabled  and  only  channel  1 
signal is amplified.
