AmpConnect 621™ Manual Product Overview 1

Product Overview

AmpConnect 621™ simplifies your multichannel audio test in a single USB-connected unit. With sample

rates up to 192kHz, it is ideal for the measurement of high resolution audio devices.

6 inputs with independent control of microphone power for each channel

2 Line Outputs

Single amplifier output with switchable binding posts

Unique high accuracy impedance measurement independent of your input channels

Digital I/O

Plug-and-play setup with SoundCheck and TEDS support

Error-free operation with all control via SoundCheck - no buttons!

Clear visual level indications on front panel

Excellent ground loop immunity compared to discrete components

Rugged and rack-mountable for demanding production environments

2 Product Overview AmpConnect 621™ Manual

Front Panel Indicators

AmpConnect 621 must be connected to a computer running SoundCheck as all control and audio interface

functions are made via the USB 2.0 (minimum) connection.

When Inputs 1 through 6 are routed to the internal audio interface channels the front panel level indicators

show the signal state at those inputs. This gives you a visual indication to show if the input is overloaded or

underloaded (low signal level that is too close to the noise floor of the system).

See AmpConnect 621 Message Step on page 21. Also see Max FSD In in the SoundCheck manual.

Back Panel Connections

Saved State: The state of AmpConnect 621 is saved every 30 seconds. This allows the device to power on

in it's last used state. Note that this will be overwritten by Hardware Startup Defaults set in the System

Hardware.

Error Indicator - A blinking red Level LED indicates that the amplifier has

shut off due to an over-temperature or over-current event. The unit needs to

be power-cycled to clear the error state.

AmpConnect 621™ Manual Installation 3

Installation

Requirements

SoundCheck 18.1 (or later) is required in order to control AmpConnect 621™ via USB

The SoundCheck computer must have an available USB 2.0 connection

Note: It is recommended that AmpConnect 621 be mounted in a ventilated rack mount enclosure for

proper cooling.

USB Connections

AmpConnect 621 should be connected directly to the SoundCheck host computer USB Port. High quality,

powered USB 3 and USB-C hubs may work but should be tested for stability with AmpConnect 621. The

use of USB 2 hubs should be avoided.

Physical Installation

Power Requirements:

100-240 VAC, 50 or 60 Hz, 140W

Fuse: Requires 2: T2.0A, 250V 5x20 mm Time Lag glass fuses. Suggested replacement: Eaton/

Bussman BK/S506-2.0-R

Connecting AmpConnect 621 to the AC mains supply

AmpConnect 621 must be connected to a 50 or 60 Hz AC mains supply, with an operating voltage within

100 to 240 Vrms. The mains supply is connected to your AmpConnect 621 via the power entry module

located on the back panel. A 3-wire grounded power cord is supplied.

Ground the Instrument

Install SoundCheck first!

Before connecting AmpConnect 621 with the provided USB cable to the SoundCheck host computer,

SoundCheck must be installed. The AmpConnect 621 ASIO driver installation is part of the SoundCheck

software install process.

Windows will indicate that new hardware has been found, which shows that the driver has been

successfully installed. This may be displayed as “AmpConnect 621” or as “New HID Device”.

Caution! Airflow around the heat sink must remain unobstructed during use. DO NOT install

AmpConnect 621 inside an enclosure without a ventilation fan. When installed in a

rack, AmpConnect 621 units should not be installed on top of each other. Leave

airspace for cooling.

Warning! A grounding-type power plug is included with AmpConnect 621. The chassis and

cover must be connected to an electrical ground to minimize shock hazard. The

ground pin must be firmly connected to an electrical ground (safety ground) terminal

at the power outlet. Any interruption of the protective (grounding) conductor or

disconnection of the protective earth terminal will cause a potential shock hazard

that could result in personal injury.

4 Installation AmpConnect 621™ Manual

System Settings

The following settings are recommended to prevent Windows system sounds from inadvertently playing

ing device to the motherboard sound card or any other

device that is not part of the measurement system

2. Click the Sounds tab and set the Sound Scheme to

No Sounds

4. Select the Playback tab and set the default

Windows playback device to the motherboard

audio interface or any other device that is not part

of the measurement system
