Spirit KING-416, Instruction Manual

Page: 3 / 24

ATTENTION!
The following special limitations apply to the console and must be observed in order to maintain safety
and electromagnetic compatibility performance:
POWER CONNECTION
The console should only be operated with the power supply connected to ground via its mains supply
the connector.
AUDIO CONNECTIONS
The console should only be operated with high quality screened twisted pair audio cables. All
connector shells should be of metal construction so that they provide a screen when they are plugged
into the console. All JACK connector shells should be connected to the cable screen. All XLR
connectors should have pin 1 connected to the cable screen.
ELECTRIC FIELDS
If the console is operated in an electromagnetic field that is amplitude modulated by an audio
frequency signal, the signal to noise ratio may be degraded. Degradation of up to 60dB may be
experienced under extreme conditions (3V/m, 90% modulation).
INSTALLATION
There are a number of points to consider when installing a mixing console. Many of these points will
have been addressed before the console is even unpacked but it is worth repeating them.
POSITION
The console should be located in a convenient space commensurate with the use to which the console
is being put. Ideally a cool area is preferred not in close proximity to power distribution equipment or
other potential sources of interference. Provision should be made for some flat surface surrounding
the console to prevent people using it as a table top.
MAINS VOLTAGE SETTING
The console is shipped with a specified mains voltage setting If the mains voltage is ever changed by
the mains voltage selector at the rear of the external power supply, the mains fuse has to be changed
as well to the rating matching the selected voltage on the label.
THE EXTERNAL POWER SUPPLY SHOULD NEVER BE OPERATED WITH THE MAINS EARTH
DISCONNECTED
Please note that the power supply contains LETHALVOLTAGES and that its rails can produce extremely
large currents which could burn out equipment and wiring if shorted. All testing and servicing should
ONLY be carried out by qualified engineers.
