Connection You may also connect speakers with different rated inputs to different channels or connect speakers with different rated input to the same channel, as shown below: 10W 10W 10W 10 W x 20 speakers (200W) 20W 20W 20W 20 W x 10 speakers (200W) ■ Using a Euroblock connector ● Cable preparation • To prepare the cable for attachment to a Euroblock con- nector, strip the wire as shown in the illustration, and use stranded wire to make connections. With a Euroblock connection, the stranded wire may be prone to breakage because of metal fatigue due to the weight of the cable or due to vibration. When rack-mounting your equipment, use a lacing bar when possible to bundle and fasten the cables. approx. 7 mm • If cables will be frequently connected and disconnected, as in the case of a portable installation, we recommend that you use ferrules with insulation sleeves. Use a ferrule whose conductor portion has an external diameter of 1.6 mm or less, and a length of approximately 7 mm (such as the AI0, 5-6WH made by the Phoenix Contact corporation). 1.6 mm approx. or less 7 mm 5W 5W 5W 15W 15W 15W 5 W x 10 speakers (50W) 15 W x 10 speakers (150W) Total rated input of speakers : 200W If you use stranded wire, do not tin (plate with solder) the exposed end. Be sure to use speakers that support the XH200's line-out voltage of 70V or 100V. 1 If the wire insertion ports are closed, turn the screws on top of the connector counterclockwise to open the ports. 2 Insert the wires into the appropriate ports, following the indication of the pole on the input terminal, turn the screws on top of the connector clockwise to fix the wires. 3 Attach the Euroblock connector to the input terminal on the unit. You cannot connect a low-impedance speaker directly to the XH200. In this case, be sure to use a speaker transformer (such as the Yamaha ST15). Follow the instruction guide that came with the speaker transformer to avoid excessive loads. Use a screwdriver to fix the wires. -G + XM4180/XM4080/XH200 Owner's Manual 11 9
