READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS FIRST:
Safety instructions
Before starting, read the
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
sheet supplied
with the product and downloadable from the Allen & Heath web site. For your own
safety and that of the operator, crew and performers, follow all instructions and
heed all warnings printed in the sheet, this guide and on the product.
Sound levels
This product is capable of producing high sound levels which may be harmful to
your hearing. To avoid the risk of damage to your hearing when working with
headphones, ear pieces or loudspeakers do not operate at high volumes for an
extended period of time. The ME-500 mixer provides a limiter function which can
be set to prevent the level exceeding a comfortable maximum.
General precautions
•
The mixer is designed to be used on a flat surface or mounted to a microphone
stand. Locate it so that it is stable and will not topple over and cause damage
or injury. Ensure cables are routed to avoid a trip hazard.
•
To prevent damage to the mixer, avoid dropping it, placing objects on the
control surface, scratching the surface or screen with sharp objects, or rough
handling and vibration in operation or transit.
•
Protect the mixer from damage through liquid or dust contamination. Cover the
mixer when it is not being used for a long period.
•
If the mixer has been stored in extreme cold allow time for it to reach normal
operating temperature before use. Avoid using the mixer in direct sunlight.
Recommended operating temperature is 5 to 35 degrees Celsius.
•
Clean the control surface with a soft brush and dry lint-free cloth. Do not use
chemicals, abrasives or solvents.
•
It is recommended that servicing is carried out only by an authorised Allen &
Heath agent. Allen & Heath do not accept liability for damage or data loss
caused by maintenance, repair or modification by unauthorised personnel.
Operating firmware
The function of the ME-500 mixer is determined by the operating firmware that
runs within it. Firmware is updated when improvements are made. Check the Allen
& Heath web site for the latest version available. This can be downloaded,
transferred to USB key and then loaded into the mixer.
Software licence agreement
By using this Allen & Heath product and the software within it (the firmware) you
agree to be bound by the terms of the relevant End User Licence Agreement
(EULA), a copy of which can be found on the Allen & Heath web site.
