Using the Ground Lift Switch
Depending on your system configuration, sometimes applying the
ground will create a quieter signal path. Sometimes lifting the ground
can eliminate ground loops and hum to create a quieter signal path.
1. With the mixer on, listen to the system in idle mode (no signal present)
with the ground applied (the
GROUND LIFT
SWITCH (63)
in the “GND”
position).
2. Then turn the power OFF before moving the
GROUND LIFT SWITCH
(63)
. Lift the ground by moving the
GROUND LIFT SWITCH (63)
to the
“LIFT” position, turn the power back on and listen to determine which
position will provide a signal free of background noise and hum. Keep
the
GROUND LIFT
SWITCH (63)
in the “GND” position if the noise level
remains the same in either position.
CAUTION: DO NOT TERMINATE THE AC GROUND ON THE POWER
MIXER IN ANY WAY. TERMINATION OF THE AC GROUND CAN
BE HAZARDOUS.

Connections
1. Before plugging in the power cord, make sure that the
VOLTAGE
SELECTOR SWITCH (50)
is set to the correct voltage.
NOTE: This product is double insulated and not intended to be
grounded.
2. Make sure that the
POWER SWITCH (1)
is in the OFF position.
3. The
CS-19
and
CS-19R
are supplied with 2 sets of amp output jacks.
The
BALANCED MASTER OUTPUT JACKS
(44)
are used to connect
to your main amplifier using standard XLR cables. We recommend
using the
BALANCED MASTER OUTPUT JACKS
if the cables to your
amp are 25 feet or more. Balanced outputs have three separate
conductors, two of which are signal (positive and negative) and one
shield (ground). Pin 1 is ground (shield). Pin 2 is signal hot (positive).
Pin 3 is signal cold (negative). The
MASTER OUTPUT JACKS
(45)
are
unbalanced and used to connect to your main amplifier. The
OUTPUT
BOOTH JACKS (46)
allow you to hook up an additional amplifier. The
RECORD OUTPUT JACKS (47)
allow you to record your mix to a
cassette recorder, CD recorder, etc. The
ZONE 1 OUTPUT (48)
and
ZONE 2 OUTPUT
(49)
can be used to connect to additional amplifiers.
