This chapter explains how to use and connect the [REMOTE] 
connector and [FAULT OUTPUT] connector located on the rear 
panel of the XMV.
Using the [REMOTE] Connector 
(Euroblock 3-pin)
You can connect switches to the rear panel [REMOTE] connec-
tor (page 15), and use them to remotely mute/unmute all chan-
nels or switch the power standby/on status.
From the left, the [REMOTE] connector consists of MUTE 
ALL, STANDBY, and GND pins.
The [REMOTE] connector uses a Euroblock plug.
For details on how to connect Euroblock plugs, refer to “Con-
necting the [REMOTE] Connector or [FAULT OUTPUT] Con-
nector” (pa
ge 22).
• Muting/unmuting all channels
• Switching the power standby/on status
Using the [FAULT OUTPUT] Connector 
(Euroblock 3-pin)
A lamp or other indicator can be connected to the rear panel 
[FAULT OUTPUT] connector to inform an operator when a 
problem occurs.
The [FAULT OUTPUT] connector (page 15) consists of NO 
(Normally Open), C (Common), and NC (Normally Closed) 
pins. The [FAULT OUTPUT] connector is a relay circuit that 
operates as follows.
The [FAULT OUTPUT] connector uses a Euroblock plug. For 
details on how to connect Euroblock plugs, refer to “Connecting 
the [REMOTE] Connector or [FAULT OUTPUT] Connector” 
(page 22).
