A rear panel BNC ACTIVE or FIBER ACTIVE LED will illuminate when a MADI
input signal is present.
This BLADE has two RJ-45 connectors to provide 12 logic ports, which can be
individually designated during set up as inputs or outputs. These ports are where you
wire the various external switches, indicators, and control functions you need in your
facility.
There are two RJ-45 jacks for Ethernet. One is for 1 Gigabit Ethernet – connect
this one to your network. The 100 Megabit Ethernet port is not used – do not connect
anything to this port.
Consult the wiring diagram on page 1-42 for detailed information.
The unit has a standard IEC power connector. The BLADEs have an internal power
supply that will accept 100-240 volts 50/60 hertz AC power.
Model M4
IP
- Microphone Processing BLADE
The M4
IP
Preamp BLADE is the newest member of Wheatstone’s WheatNet-IP
Intelligent Network family. Two devices in one package, it’s a complete WheatNet-IP
BLADE with four microphone inputs, four high quality microphone processors, and
both digital and analog outputs.
The Wheatstone M4
IP
hosts four discrete, very high quality microphone processors.
The Vorsis Embedded™ processing features of the M4
IP,
the processing capabilities of
the M4
IP
and how to control it with the included Windows-based GUI application are
described in the M4
IP
Microphone Processing BLADE technical manual.
This unit has four XLR female connectors for microphone-level inputs.
It also has one DB-25 and eight RJ-45 connectors (the DB and analog 1-4 RJ connec
‑
tions are in parallel so you can choose your preferred connector type) for audio outputs.
Two RJ-45 connectors provide 12 logic ports, which can be individually designated
during set up as inputs or outputs. Use these ports to wire the various external switches,
indicators, and control functions you need in your facility.
