Shure FP42 Guia Del Usuario página 3

is recommended for normal use to provide approximately 14 dB of
headroom from operating level to clipping level.
The VU meters are illuminated by a single cartridge-type, 6.3V in-
candescent lamp, operating well under its normal rating for a life ex-
pectancy of greater than 10,000 hours. The lamp is only lit for ac
operation. Consequently, the illumination serves as a visual alarm if
the ac is interrupted and the unit has switched to battery operation.
The VU meters are connected on the primary side of the output
transformer to assure protection from any dc level on a telephone
line.
Telephone interconnection
When using the FP42 connected directly to a telephone line, check
to see whether the telephone company requires an interface cou-
pler between the FP42 and the telephone line. If a coupler is re-
quired, make certain the coupler selected and the wiring arrange-
ment are in compliance with local telephone company regulations.
Connect the telephone line to the left or right Output connector and
turn the Pan controls so that the entire output signal is on the tele-
phone-connected output, or switch to mono operation.
Telephone Line Surge Protection
When using the FP42 connected directly to a telephone line subject
to lightning-induced voltage surges, the following part (commer-
cially available) can be installed across the output terminals to pro-
vide additional protection for output circuit components: Metal Ox-
ide Varistor, General Electric Co., Type No. V22ZA1.
