Immediately upon receiving your DownMix, please make a careful inspection for any shipping damage.
If damage is found or suspected, please notify the carrier at once and then contact your dealer.

Users Manual.
We strongly encourage you to save the shipping carton and shipping materials supplied with your

need to return it for service, only these OEM shipping materials can ensure its safe return to our
factory.
We provide a limited 3-year warranty on all of our products; however, if you don’t register your unit, it is
impossible for us to contact you to notify you when important software upgrades become available.

Rack
Mount
Installation
The DownMix chassis has four rack mounting holes and has been designed to fit in a standards 1RU
space. Plastic ‘finishing’ washers are recommended to protect the painted surface around the mounting
holes. Locate the air vents on each side of the unit, and be sure to keep them clear so the unit may
have adequate ventilation.
Power
Connection
The AC power cable supplied with DownMix must be connected from the IEC320 power entry module
to an AC mains outlet with a functional earth ground connection. For protection against electric shock
and electro-magnetic interference, do not plug the power cable into a ground lifting adapter or remove
the cable’s grounding pin. If in doubt, please consult a qualified electrician.
DownMix is designed with redundancy in mind with two internal auto switching power supplies.
Please
connect DownMix to an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) to protect against power surges and
low-voltage conditions.
For maximum redundancy, connect each power supply to a separate UPS on
different power circuits. DownMix may be combined with other devices on the output of the UPS(es) as
long as the total load is within the UPS’ capacity. Consult your UPS manual for details.
DownMix will automatically power up when AC power is applied. If AC line power is lost or
momentarily interrupted, DownMix will revert to its previous state.
