6. Installing the console
The mixing console has a space saving, compact chassis design. The control surface has a 10 degree
slope for optimum visibility during operation. The rear connector panel has a split angle design for
ease of plugging and unplugging the connectors.
The console has rubber feet fitted for free standing operation on a flat surface. Make sure the surface
is well supported, stable and big enough for the console to slit securely on all its feet.
Do not obstruct the ventilation openings on the top and rear surfaces.
To avoid audible hum, buzz or other performance degradation, do not place equipment that
radiates strong electromagnetic fields such as mains power supplies, amplifiers and
computers next to or directly underneath the console.
Read and understand the important safety instructions printed at the start of this guide, and the
warnings printed on the rear of the console. Check the console power supply mains voltage input is
the same as your local supply. Check that the correct mains lead with molded plug has been provided
with your console. Make sure that IEC mains plug is pressed fully into the panel socket before
switching on.
6.1. Grounding
The connection to the ground in an audio system is important for two reasons.
1. Safety To protect the operator from high voltage electric shock.
2. Audio performance to minimize the effect of ground (earth) loops which result in audible
hum and buzz, and to shield the audio signals form interference.
For safety it is important that all equipment grounds are connected to mains ground so that
exposed metal parts are prevented from carrying high voltage which can injure or even kill
the operator. Do not disconnect the ground connection in the mains lead. .
