1 RU Standalone Dual Stereo Loudness Meter. It incorporates two completely independent SAS world famous stereo level meters with phase indication. Each of the two meter dynamics are switchable from VU/PPM, Volume Units with Peak Program meter or LU, Loudness Units. These meters are more useful for production purposes than the traditional peak and VU meters of yesterday.

1 RU Remote Control interface panel with 16 optically-isolated DC inputs and 16 relay-isolated outputs that are used for a variety of control functions: machine control, on-air light switching, radio keying, and much more. The GPI-1600 interfaces via RS485 serial to the router's DRC remote control module or to one of the RIOLink's RS485 ports.

The Sierra Automated Systems-standard wiring system utilizes a special version of the ADC/Krone Series 2 K110 Blocks. The Sierra Automated Systems/Krone block is equipped with two industry-standard RJ21 connectors wired with an internal CAT5 twist to the IDC terminals to maintain impedance integrity necessary for AES/EBU digital audio. The 89D mounting bracket is included.

These blocks provide far better performance over older 66-type blocks, with twice the density. One unique feature is the center disconnect port, which makes the Krone block a fully-functional patch field. A range of Krone test plugs and cables allow bridging or breaking of the connection for testing, monitoring, and jumpering, without removing any wires.

The silver-plated 45 degree angle IDC is designed to reduce wire stress, deliver a gas-tight connection, and provides a stronger, more reliable hold. It accepts two conductors of 20-26 AWG solid or stranded wire. Connections are guaranteed for greater than 200 re-terminations.

The blocks snap easily onto standard 89D brackets, and the blocks can then be mounted directly to a wall or on Krone mounting frames.

The SAS 89D-2132 block is most often used to break out an SAS serial port connector into a bank of RJ45 connectors to allow SAS consoles and control panels to be connected with standard networking cables. By connecting a power supply to this panel, you can provide power over the network cable to further ease the installation of SAS Turret and Router Control panels. The two sides of the 89D-2132 block are mirror images, allowing one block to work with 2 RIOLink or 32KD serial connectors.

The SAS 89D-8x4 block is used to facilitate audio con- nections to SAS turret panels. Using standard network cables, you can take audio outputs (or inputs) and use this block as a distribution and power insertion point for SAS headphone amps, meters and USB turrets. Dip switches allow for flexible configuration to suit any studio needs.

Both SAS 89D Series blocks mount on standard 89D stand-offs (included) and are only slightly wider than a standard punch block.
